Working out and eating better should make you feel better. But they have definitely not been demonstrated to replace medication and cure depression. SAM-e helps some people but not others. It is much more expensive than prescription drugs, especially since insurance does not cover it.
Are you doing well on Effexor? For the vast majority of users, Effexor is very well tolerated even with long term use. If you are currently doing ok, keep taking the Effexor.
