Asking For Self, Male 30, fsb
i took anti depressants in a problem related to intestines IBS for one and half years.After leaving the anti depressant i could not get my mind like before. its been over 3 years now and after trying so many anti depressants havent recovered from brain chemical imbalance. will it go away with time or i should take shock therapy?
ur best to take online session
You should wait some time
I think you need to see psychiatrist first to create a chemical balance in brain and with addition you must go for therapy to make your life better! You may contact marham and book session with me . we can work on depression with structured CBT programme! Please dont go for shock therapy!
i think you need to see psychiatrist first to create a chemical balance and then u need to visit a psychologist as well...i think CBT will definately help u to overcome from this issue...

you should go for psychiatrist because they can understand your problem better. sometimes we take multiple medicines without knowing their chemical composition so when they combined inside your body that eventually effect you and your body. so psychiatrist will ask you for the list of medicines you have taken before or taking now a days and after analysing your detailed history of medicine her will help you.
and when a doctor prescribe you a medicine you are supposed to take it that way he prescribed you please don't reduce or add dose or do not attempt to stop taking your medicine without consulting with your doctor because it cause drastic side effects.
Just practice deep breathing and relaxation techniques mindfulness n eat healthy n book an appointment for further guidance
there is no need for shock therapy pls dont go for such things. do not self medicate . do not change dose urself n do not stop a prescribed medicine yourself. consult a psychiatrist please and give ur complete history to them. using skippin n leaving anti depressants all have effects

I dont self medicate . It was medical specialist not psychiatrist who prescribed me first those medicines due to panic attacks. I have consulted various psychiatrists after that . myriad of different combination being prescribed havent been worked on me. it is a very difficult situation. a vicious circle...

you don't need to take shock therapy but a psychotherapy, depression is not a monster, it can heal as a fever heals..... so just need to be regular in taking sessions to any therapist. it will help you alot.
