yes, this is adequate but you are not combining therapy with the medication is of big concern. Your problem is created by your extreme fear. You must by now know the origin of this fear. Until you deal with this fear you are going to suffer the problems you have listed quite regularly. If you are against the use of medication, then you will have to work very hard with a counselor for a long time to recover. In fact the counselor may advice medication and will send you to a doctor. If you do not cooperate then it is futile and is a gross waste of time, money and opportunity. There is nothing wrong with use of medication since it is used as an addendum to the process of therapy. When the medication has served its purpose, then you can discontinue it on the advice of the doctor. In fact, you can mention this to him/her that you do not wish to be on medication for too long. S/he will tell you how long it will take and how much of your cooperation is required. All disorders have a chemical imbalance and that can ideally be stabilized by introducing medication, which are made to mimic the natural neurotransmitters the brain produces. When the chemistry is normalized there is no need for further medication. Then the doctor will gently and gradually withdraw the medication to tease the brain to produce the new normal. Remember you will need to work with the counselor even if you take medication.

Both pexep ie paroxetine and serta ie sertraline are both ssri and are usually not combined together. So consult your psychiatrist and get an ideal combination for your fear and anxiety related to covid. This has become very common these days and you will recover soon. Good luck.

Dear user you are 33 years old and facing many problems. As far as your hair treatment is concerned I can't say much but go for some herbal or ayurvedic treatment. Regarding your anxiety and depression I will definitely guide you much better. You are talking medicines but you didn’t try counseling sessions. With medicines you need proper counseling and then we will taper you medicines accordingly. I dont 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. And we will also try to manage your diabetes without medicine that will help you a lot .please call and discuss your problem in detail and then i'll be able to help you better. My contact no is mobile.
