Suggest Treatment For Depression,restlessness And Tiredness
I ve been depressed, restless, tired and not motivated. I have to talk myself into going to trainer at fitness club trying to induce endorphins. I stopped taking pristiq almost a year ago because of tepid orgasms and wanted to get back in touch with feelings. Any suggestions?
i. Because the choice of medicine will vary from doctor to doctor, and from locality to locality, so initially remain under single supervision and let your body know about the effects of the drug prescribed and thereafter one can change/add or substitute a drug [in consultation with your attending physician.
ii. Eat a healthy diet, stay away from caffeine, alcohol, spices, pickles, drink green tea, take an apple, banana, dates, practice relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation, and Pranayam.
iii. Since drug therapy is generally only a palliative treatment, we have to look at cognitive and behavioral strategies and especially nutritional strategies. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Munish Sood, Ayurveda Specialist
