Im 16, healthy (eat very healthily and exercise regularly, get 8hrs+ sleep) but always feel angry, fatigued and frustrated. I fall asleep at the same time every day, around 12pm. I went to the doctor about it and he said i may have slight depression, but im not sure.

Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi,

I read you query and do understand your concern. The symptoms that you have mentioned are suggestive of depression. However, it is also important to rule some medical disorders like thyroid dysfunction, anaemia. Complete blood counts and T3, T4, TSH levels will be needed. You ca discuss regarding the same with your physician.

In case your reports are normal, I would advise you to consult a psychiatrist for starting anti-depressants like sertraline/ escitalopram for your condition. These medications are safe and effective. In addition, also start exercising on a daily basis.

Hope this information was helpful. Best wishes.
