Psychiatrist 's  Response
HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

These are relapse symptoms of depression. In this case, you should try antidepressant that help to overcome anxiety and depressive symptoms. In last episode, if you got relief with escitalopram, i would recommend same drug this time also. Better to consult your psychiatrist for further treatment.

Thanks
