How Can Catatonic Depression Be Treated?
My wife is suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder and is believed to be suffering catatonic depression like her twin brother, who had to go through ECT and medication to stabalize.... She has refused treatment, chooses to meditate, take herbs, and pray...she refuses to see a doctor and instead sees a spiritualist. She has filed for divorce ... blaming her depression on me..... what can I do to convince her to see a doctor for further diagnosis and try to save our marriage?

Hi,
As per the narration and my clinical experience co relation, the current condition requires convincing of the spiritualist to convey her about the well wishing aspect from your side in her life. Rest all things can be figured out once this thing is being done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Purva Patel
