Suggest Some Anti-depressants

My son is going through a very painful divorce. Our family seams to suffer a lot from depression and anxiety. I think he would do much better if he had an anti depression med and anti anxiety med. He lives in Lynnwood WA and does not have a GP. Can you recommend one that he could get into quickly. He is really hurting. His wife left with their 2 kids and won t let him see them.

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Dear Sir,
It is really sad that your son is going through painful divorce.
You haven't mentioned the duration of divorce. Because many times with time person gets adjusted to his situation and accepts pain.
But if it is very hurting, his work is impairing and he feels very sad and occupied to that stress only, I advise you to consult a good psychiatrist.
Antidepressant groups of medicines will help him.
Best wishes...
