What Could Be Wrong With Me For Loving To Be Quiet And Alone Without Mingling With People Which Was Not The Same Earlier?

Hi,

All I do for the past 6 months is go to work, come home, drink scotch while watching tv. Over the weekends, I am on the couch drinking and watching tv. I dont answer calls and I dot call. I love the quiet and being alone. What is wrong with me? I used to be active in church, had many friends and used to go to the gym and to dance. I have since added 60 pounds.

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,

The short history that you had given suggests " decreased social interaction".
probable Cause of decreased social interaction- Dysthymia, Depression, stress( physical/psychological/financial .....) or it might be personality problem.
I suggest you go for psychological evaluation to a psychologist/psychiatrist. You will definitely get help.

hope this helps and clarifies your concern.
Wishing you good health.
Regards,
Dr.Samrat
