you need evaluation for depression with anxious distress

Detailed Answer:
Hello Young lady,

Thanks for writing to us. I can understand your concern and feelings you have gone through.

Your marital relationship is disturbed. You are mother of 10 months old baby.

To solve your issue, your husband needs treatment (which he may be already taking), he needs to undergo counseling as well as you both need to go for couple counseling.

If your relationship is disturbed, development of your baby may get affected as you unknowingly may not be able to provide appropriate care.

To help you more as well as to tell you that you need treatment or not I need more information.

- Sad mood, lack of interest in routine/pleasurable activities, weeping/crying spells, hopelessness, reduce appetite, excessive fatigue or weakness, lack of concentration, sleep disturbances, death wishes, suicidal ideas : among these symptoms which are there in your case and since when? Please narrate each symptom briefly.

- Is there any treatment going on of your husband? If yes let me know some details about his symptoms and treatment.

- What is usual reason of fight between you (apart from sex if any)?

I will be happy to help further after your response.

Brief Answer:
no past disturbance would not disturrb your baby

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for follow up.

No past fights would not disturb your baby. His weight is 7.7 kg and that is appropriate. His physical health is likely fine. Baby's brain grows maximum during first two years of life. Baby needs maximum stimulation during this period. You need to spare happy and joyful time with your baby as much you can.

Occasional sadness is ok but persistent sadness for most of the time and most of the days for at least 2 weeks needs to be evaluated by psychiatrist.

Considering your answer you do not need any treatment now.

To prevent depression and maintain your mental health you need to follow healthy lifestyle. This includes regular daily exercise (walking or running), hygienic food habits (no junk food, no fatty food, preferably only home-made food with law salt and fat with more fruits and vegetables) and timely scheduled sleep. Yoga- meditation can also help. Being a mother of young baby you may not be able to get regular sleep and spare time for exercise but still try follow as much as you can.

Feel free to discuss further.
