Methods 60 outpatients of depression were selected and grouped by registration order,research group (RG) was given antidepressant and Morita therapy,control group (CG) as antidepressant. Scales HAMD and SF-36 were evaluated before treatment and after 12 weeks.

After treatment, HAMD and SF-36 of two groups were improved notably (P<0.01). HAMD(RG:7.60±5.76,CG:13.70±8.46, P<0. O1) and GH(RG:68.13 ±15.77,CG:59.00 ± 17.12, P<0.05) ,VT( RG:68.83 ± 18.67 ,CG:47.17 ± 18.18, P<0. 01 ) ,SF( RG:86.23± 18.67,CG:77.03 ±12.28, P<0.01) ,RE(RG:74.44 ± 35.76,CG:51.12 ±41.74, P<0.05) ,MH (RG:75.47 ± 16.16, CG :61.73 ± 15.75, P< 0.01 ) of SF-36 in research group were improved significantly than those in control group.
