Abstract
Depression is a mental health disease that causes patients to be in a negative emotional situation. It is a psychosomatic disease that is difficult to recover from and has a high recrudescence rate. Much research and clinical results showed that Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is effective in depression and can reduce the symptoms. A depression patient with depression came for acupuncture treatment. After four acupuncture treatments, the emotion turned more positive, and symptoms such as insomnia, poor appetite, body pain, etc., had reduced. These cases showed that TCM is an effective and alternative option for depression.
