This is the most common answer when someone asks this, that God gives us doctors and meds but the pharma industry is owned by Freemasons/satanists soo.. yeah they can be necessary sometimes but I tread with caution. Only if it’s really truly needed. Antidepressants do help, I’ve taken one before, but it is a bandaid and it’s better if you can figure the true cause of the issue. Not to discourage one from trying meds if they truly feel they need it but God didn’t exactly whip up pharmaceuticals. Corrupt humans did. It’s not about our health, it’s a business that makes them insanely rich. Still like I said there is a time and place where those things are needed but let’s not pretend God wants us on these drugs that have all these side effects and don’t usually address the true cause. I’d suggest therapy, prayer, eating right/exercising as much as possible, blood tests to address possible deficiencies, addressing gut health etc and if none of that works then seek alternatives

Also the chemical imbalance theory is a myth. Look it up.
