hi
thanks for choosing healthcare magic
i understand your concern
You are suffering from
depression without psychotic symptoms and that is for sure manageable as you understand your symptoms well.
but i do need to know some more details regarding your symptoms e.g your appetite, sleep pattern, interest in daily life, any stressful events in your life, your daily routine etc so that i can advise you proper medicines for your management.
Till then i can advise you some basic lifestyle modifications in order to help you get out of this phase systematically.
Remember it is you and only you who can get rid of your symptoms as soon as possible we are just helping you to get stable quickly.
firstly try to change your routine and involve yourself in tasks that you feel interesting, love yourself and give extra time to care for you.
you can help someone out of the way or try
meditation, adopt pets and gardening as a source of positive influence in your routine will be good option.
Try drinking a glass of milk daily before you sleep and try various kind of fragrances in your surroundings to help you feel good.
moreover if you want to start medicine i think the first line in your case would be escitalopram daily for atleast two weeks before stopping it.
you can consult me with proper history to write medicines for you and to help you with pcyhological therapy later on if you feel comfortable.
i hope i clearly explained your querry in detail but if there is any ambiguity you can ask me whenever needed and if you are satisfied then dont forget to give five star feed back. Hope to see you happy soon :)
