Ayurvedic medicine for severe depression
I am suffering from severe depression. Consulted an Ayurvedic doctor and taking these medicines Patanjali Divya medhavati (two tabs twice daily), Ashwagandha (one tab twice daily), Brahmivati (one tab twice daily), Saraswatarishta (4 spoons with equal water twice daily), zonecalm (one tab before sleep), Divya badam Rogan (4 drops in each nostril twice daily). I have been taking  these medicines for past one and half week.  They do seem to work and giving me some relief,  but my question is, will this cause overdose and will there be any side effects in short term or longterm?

The Ayurvedic meds dont cause any side effects if suitable for your bodytype as they work by improving Normal functioning and giving strength to the system. Yes, the Allopathic med shd not be consumed for Long term as they work by Suppressing the system, have bad effect on the Hormonal secretions and can lead to other issues in future.
Health Tips
Pranayam, Yog, being outside under the sky close to Mother Narure, staying positive, proper food habits, proper sleep, avoiding too much use of mobile/AC, discussing/talking with others, chanting Mantras/Prayers etc does Help.
