Things are becoming more depressing every day and I can't afford for professionals and don't want to jump to the last resort or drugs. Is there a medicine that can make me happy if I take it in proper doses and does not require a doctor's prescription?

Vitamin D and some exercise is generally helpful for me

Big one for me too. I notice a massive downturn in my mood when I haven't managed to stick to my exercises.

Exercise = endorphins = happy

It's works for me and makes sense that it is how our bodies have evolved to work.

Good food and lots of water also
