Posted on Tue, 7 Mar 2017
Question: I am facing difficulties. i want to commit suicide. i think i don't have anyone in my life who is concerned about me. Even if i die no body would be hurt. i am just not getting the right method of doing it.. i cry at night. in morning i hide all my emotions and get to work. In office if someone hugs and asks me that if i am doing okay. i breakdown, i start crying... life is getting difficult. Even now while writing this... i am crying... sometimes i don't even know the reason.

Brief Answer:
best course is to see a local Psychiatrist at the earliest.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX I feel really bad for you.

You are in a phase of depression/reactive depression.

But the best course is to see a local Psychiatrist at the earliest. This does not mean you have a Psychiatric problem.

You can discuss all your problems with him/her and they will give immediate and appropriate medication. There is nothing worth giving up your life for.
If you cannot motivate yourself to see a psychiatrist----

Meanwhile take Fluoxetine (Fludac) 40 one in the morning and Alprazolam (Restyl) 0.25 mg at night. This will improve you enough to motivate you to see a psychiatrist in a week, maximum fortnight.

I am certain you will improve. Come on! Chin up! You'll be fine!

You can revert back to me.

Hi Doctor,

Thank you for your early response. However I think these medicines would be only available on showing a prescription. A print out of this would work as a prescription?

Also, Restyl I am aware is a sleeping/stress relieving pill. What is Fluoxetine (Fludac) 40 for?

Thanks for helping!
