Is Major DPRSV Disorder Curable?

My daughter has been diagnosed with Major DPRSV Disorder Recurrent Episode -Moderate numbers were 296.32. She is 30 yrs old and currently is in remission from substance abuse. After reading all these articles I am a bit confused. Is her depression curable or will this be a lifetime battle for her. She is seeing a therapist too.

Hello
this is a chronic , recurrent and life time disease with intermittent partial or complete remissions. Substance use complicates the matter and the out come becomes worse. It can be a life time battle but can be won by taking appropriate medicines and modifying life style under the guidance of a good psychiatrist.
