How to deal with chronic depression?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am suffering from depression. It has been four years. I am always demotivated. I was average student but then I became a failure. I cannot concentrate on studies. I feel like god is talking to me and orders me certain things which I must do. I always feel like third person is ordering me and I get tired answering them. I feel like I have become a small child of second grade.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
The symptoms like someone is talking to you, talking to God or hearing voices which others cannot hear could be occurring due to some psychotic issue. Such kind of symptoms are not generally seen in depression. Since such symptoms have resulted in loss of performance in studies, poor concentration in studies, so please visit a psychiatrist for help and evaluation. Drugs like Amisulpride, Olanzapine, Quetiapine, etc., can help you in coming out of depression and psychosis. Thank you.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
