Abstract
The third edition of the German National Clinical Practice Guideline for Depression emphasizes the significance of cardinal measures much more strongly than before. Low-threshold cardinal measures are an indispensable component of every depression treatment, regardless of severity and setting. They are suitable as a standalone treatment for mild and moderate depression. If inadequate improvement is observed, additional therapies should be supplemented. They should be implemented immediately after diagnosis to enhance the success rate.Regarding cardinal measures, among other things, comprehensive patient education in understandable language is essential. Patients with depressive disorders require guidance on structuring their day and building healthy activities. Patients with depression-related sleep disturbances benefit from sleep hygiene rules. Wake therapy constitutes an excellent and low-risk treatment method with immediate effect, which is a standard component of adequate depression treatment. Patients with a seasonal pattern of depression should be advised on light therapy. All patients should be encouraged to engage in regular physical activity with moderate intensity.
