Asking For Self, Female 35, Karachi
kindly forward question only to psychiatrist not to homeopathic or psycholgist.I was a chronic major depression patient which was resistant after 3 years of treatment and its been 6 months i feel no more depression.I am afraid while taking antidepressant depression can come back as i read on internet.since i was treated my doctor prescibed lamictal to prevent relpase and i was ok on it but now feeling depression on it increased dose but not much benefit.Is there any specific antidepressant which is better to prevent relapse than others any body help me plzz.
Can understand.Lamictal is basically not an antidepressant I would strongly recommend you to consult a psychiatrist for evaluation
Pl consult specialist and have 3 monthly review even if your illness is stable .
consider your illness equivalent to any other chronic illness needing life long monitoring
i can undestand that you are passing through difficult times but For your knowledge and information Depression is an episodic disease it can happen time and again but i will strongly recomend to consult Your Psychiatrist so he can undestand the factors responsible for its relapse.
thank you
Aoa,
hope u will be fine...
You need proper assessment from psychiatrist and psychologist and iA u will be alright.
Isee koi baat nhi k antidepressant ki waja say apk masayal hai bal ki aksar mareezo mai depression antidepressant k sath teek hojata hai and your problem is genuine and have a solution.

Dear please let me know the names of all medicines you are taking with dosage. And just like any other physical or mental illness , depression too can recur in spite of continue treatment. DR. SABIR HUSSAIN KHAN
There is a clear cut scientific criteria for evaluating whether a medical drug is working or not. Even if you want a second opinion, one would like to review complete history, revisit the diagnosis, find the cause of limited response to a medicine, and evaluate objectively through Depression Rating scales. This can not be done here in the QA portion
please apply for an appointment, to avail a second opinion, effectively. Please know that Depression responds to medications and appropriate psychotherapy. Both are needed for a complete treatment of Depression and mood disorder. Using the BioPsychoSocial model for treatment of Depression is the treatment of choice for Depression. Looking forwards to meeting you in an online session. Best Regards.
