Q. How to overcome the feeling of hopelessness?
Hello doctor,
I am a 55-year-old man. I have been suffering from depression for the last five months. I have been feeling tired and hopeless. I want your help for recovery. I am currently on Fluvoxin 50 mg BD.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern. Depressive disorder or depression is a neurochemical disorder. A suicidal tendencyis one main symptom of depression. You should be able to distinguish between mental disease and mental disorder. Your problem is a mental disorder and not a mental disease.
These mental disorders are usually treated with a combination of medicines and other modalities like awareness, meditation, psychotherapy techniques, lifestyle changes, etc.
Thank you.
