Psychiatrist,  's  Response

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

I understand that you have been going through a very difficult time recently. From the description of your problems, it is possible that you could be going through a depression.

Now, there is effective treatment available to help you overcome your symptoms. Help can be in the form of anti-depressant medication or psychological therapy.

So, I would advise you to see a psychiatrist in your place for a detailed evaluation and further treatment. If you cannot find a psychiatrist by yourself, then you can see your GP or family doctor and ask him to refer you to a psychiatrist.

Wish you all the best.

Regards,
Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar
