Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My daughter has been diagnosed with Bi Polar disorder. the doctor has her on Cymbalta, Lamictal, and Lithium. Serroquel for sleep. alprazalom for anxiety. She feels horrible. she can barely function. she cannot get out of bed. she is not motivated and finds joy in nothing. The doctor increased the Cymbalta to 120mg per day on June 30, 2015. she has seen no improvement. this has literally been going on for over a year. I need to know how to help her. she is in bed most days.
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that you can give her counselling therapy along with medication and make her join communities too.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
