Doctors’ responses

Hi Chandan kumar, I am sorry for whatever you went through in the past and what you are going through now. They symptoms you are mentioning like low mood, feeling of loneliness, ruminating about past events, unable to concentrate and persistent sleep issues point towards a possible Depressive episode. Please know that it is a frank medical disorder and needs treatment. Sleep medicines at this point can only act as band aid treatment and do not treat underlying depression. Management for depression includes- 1) Anti-depressants - most commonly SSRIs- which take about 2-3 weeks to start acting and need to be continued for atleast 6-8 months to prevent further relapses. 2) Cognitive behavioral therapy 3) Mindfulness techniques 4) Lifestyle and diet changes. Please seek psychiatric help at the earliest. Kindly let me know if you need online consultation. Regards, Dr. Charan Kumar, MD Psychiatry (NIMHANS),
