Your repeated Depression will be better So continue it Depressive patients worry too much...Stress In today’s day & age where stress is high, feelings of frustration can emerge. It is our perception that can change our current negative situation into a healthy & positive one. Another way of perceiving these feelings of frustration can be by looking at them as an opportunity to push ourselves to go that little extra mile until we achieve our objective. However, there are times when we all can go around in circles; and being in this space can be quite upsetting and lead to feelings of dissatisfaction, frustration and can even cloud our mind and judgment.

Hello- You need to diagnose your ED first in order to get any sort of recovery. Contributing causes of impotency include alcohol, cigarettes, arteriosclerosis, sexually transmitted diseases, high blood pressure, hormonal imbalances (such as low levels of thyroid hormones) or abusive masturbation. In some instances, impotence results from the lack of sexual desire. This cause may be linked to the loss of attraction to a partner, but it can also result from depression, illness or medications. There are over 200 drugs that may cause impotence.

No they are the same in all ways. These pharma have different brand names for different divisions within them for competition sake.

Dear user you have a long history of depression and anxiety. You tried almost every kind of treatment but you didn’t try counseling sessions. With medicines you need proper counseling and then we will taper you medicines accordingly. I don't know what are the circumstances under which you are taking medicines, I want to know the whole details about your disorder. But due to certain reasons if you are on antidepressants you have to take some extra care of yourself. You need counseling session for a better control on this disorder and medicines. Medicines are not the only solution, do not make it a habit fir future, counseling is a best option for you so that you could better understand yourself and save yourself from the side effects of medicines. Please call and discuss your problem in detail and then will be able to help you better. My contact no is mobile.

Has there been further mris done? What has your doctor told you? Additionally are you taking up counseling to manage your behaviour, low concentration, confidence etc? Both line of treatment should run in parallel for overall results. Psychiatric meds do have side effects but they should not be stopped without consultation with your Dr. If you are finding improvements and your Dr. can confirm that then gradually the dosage can be reduced and subsequently stopped. But it is very important to go for counseling to be able to sustain the withdrawal symptoms that you might face once the medicines are stopped. Evaluate yourself as well how are you now as compared to 6 months ago or a year ago. See what positive changes have happened and what are your limitations. Are you able to lead a normal life and are your able to cope with whatever challenges you are facing in your life, or you need to turn to your medicines for support? A healthy lifestyle along with a healthy vibrant mind (brain) shall allow you to live a better life, so focus there. I am sure you shall be fine and better equipped if you follow the recommendation I gave.

Hi lybrate-user, your english was completely understandable. Your main concern is to reduce medicines. I understand that completely. The only thing to know is if you are comfortable when you don't take medicines. If yes, you can gradually stop. If not you may have to continue medicines. For that it is important to know what side effects you are facing due to medicines.

As per your weight in my opinion your zaptra dose needs to be optimised, kindly call your treating doctor for further advice. And zapiz is unlikely to make you feel sad. Your baseline problem of anxiety once corrected with proper drug dosages you will feel better. Do not loose your heart you will be fine.

Dear lybrate-user, the change in medicine often makes you uncomfortable for short duration. Gradually anxiety goes away afer 3-4 days. You can wait for few days till you feel better. Doctor might have changed medicine considering some points of your symptoms. I would not be able to solve your problem until I know all your problem in detail. If you have intolerable problem you can either consult me or other psychiatrist. Else you can talk to your own psychiatrist for such complaints.

Medicines will only help you to reduce symptoms. You have to go for Psychotherapy to learn the skills and techniques to manage your depression and anxiety and increase your self confidence.
