Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a student. l am from a very poor family, preparing for the entrance exam and need selection to help my parents. I live alone, away from my home for study. From the past four months, I am struggling with a continuous fear, that my house is weak and it may break and my parents may get attacked by it. I am unconsciously feeling this fear all the time crying, and weeping. I have pain in body, neck, acidity, and memory loss and am under medication for depression for the past two years.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Your history is clear that you have relapse depressive symptoms along with anxiety symptoms. You have obvious reasons for your symptoms like you live away from your home, poverty, basic needs of life like home and your sensitive personality like you are most of the time uncertain that worse could happen. I would suggest you should start antidepressants as soon as possible.

Treatment plan

For treatment, I suggest 1. Tablet Escitalopram 10 mg at night daily. 2. Capsule Dexlansoprazole 30 mg two times a day for your acidity.

Preventive measures

If symptoms do not improve or worsen, kindly visit a mental health service nearby.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
