a) Medication: Participants could be given a trial of medication specifically designed to target depressive neurological symptoms and improve mood and cognitive function.
b) Exercise: Participants could engage in a specific exercise regimen that has been shown to directly affect neurotransmitter release and improve cognitive function.
c) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Participants could participate in a CBT program that aims to create instant release of neurotransmitters through cognitive and behavioral techniques, improving mood and cognition.
d) Mindfulness Meditation: Participants could practice mindfulness meditation, which has been shown to have a direct impact on neurotransmitter release and can improve mood and cognitive function.
