Suggest Treatment For Depression

Hi Dr. Monnica Williams. I feel like I should see a Psychologist or a Psychiatrist but I'm not so sure if I should. I feel completely depressed and like I'm in a zombie state. I also feel lethargic most days. Could you kindly advice if it's something that I should need to go see a doctor about?

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Low mood, sleep disturbance, anxiety symptoms, poor concentration, lethargic feeling etc are symptoms of depression. In that case, you need antidepressant that would help to control the symptoms. You should consult a psychiatrist for treatment. In case, you feel, you also need a psychologist, you can consult psychologist for psychotherapy or CBT. If you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
