Taking medication along with being actively in counseling has been proven to exhibit the best results for many people who were in a crisis mode.
What the medication can do is to help an individual to get past a crisis time in their life and help to stabilize their mood in order for them to start counseling. Medication can be very helpful for when a person is severely depressed as well. A person does not need to stay on the medication forever in most cases but rather it is a temporary helpful avenue while counseling can be started.
Other people are strongly against medication and engage in holistic measures along with counseling. Some of these things are to simply get more fresh air, sunshine, exercise, drink more water, utilize positive coping skills such as breathing exercises and journaling for example, and to dive deep into proper nutrition such as with juicing vegetables....all on a daily basis.
The important thing is to do what feels right for you personally to treat such disorders.
Some people do not like the side effects that comes along with medications. Other people are not disciplined enough to implement the things that they need to do to treat depression and anxiety naturally.
It is best to explore your options and try a way in which you are most comfortable with!
Attending support groups can be very helpful as well.
