How Can Severe Depression After The Birth Of The Second Baby Be Treated?
My daughter has been on Laotrigine 100 and Venlafaxine for about the past 14 months. Since the birth of her second child. She is takes xanex at times. She drinks a couple times or so per week. Her personality has changed, she is more depressed and talks crazy. It is effecting her 5 and 1 year old kids and ruining her marriage. To top it off, she is way overweight, wears a nicotine patch and is more depressed, now. What should we do to intervene? Thx Janis
