Is there a cure for depression?

I think the treatment of depression has advanced very significantly. The problem is that there are different types of depression and some patients will be carrying a genetic pre-disposition to depression. Therefore, their depression may not achieve a cure, although I think that a control of that depression will, in the vast majority of cases, be possible. The other type of patient who suffers depression, where the circumstances or their situation in life has brought about a depressive episode, will normally achieve a complete cure in their depression, once they've been helped through their depression and their life situation, and circumstances have been relieved such that they're not subjected to such stresses and strain.
