Alternative treatments like yoga, acupuncture, herbal supplements, and light therapy can support mental health. Journaling, creative expression, and spending time in nature also help. However, effectiveness varies, some find relief, while others need traditional therapy or medication.

Alternative treatments can help, but effectiveness varies. Combining them with traditional methods often brings the best results.
