I want to ask this question regarding my mother who is 52 years old. I am sorry to write but I have to write all the symptoms in detail in order to count it and treat it. The whole family and others think that "iski nature hi aisi hai -- she is only like this" but I am sure she has some psychological issue. She feels inferiority complex all the time, sometimes any joke she takes on his heart and get angry, she thinks we are mocking her. If we take care of our father, she thinks we are taking care of our father more than her and we are not taking care of her, we are not concerned about her. If we give any special food or gift to our father, then she thinks we are taking care of father only, she stops talking to all, all of a sudden. If any other person is given more attention in the family then she feels why people are not giving any attention to her. She becomes secluded (alag thalag) at times after any such things which others could not even notice or which may not be a big deal for others, she then leaves eating. When on any issue arguing with her, at the end she plays victim card. Yes I am bad, yes I don't know anything. And becomes super angry and stops talking for a few days. She thinks no one cares for her, she often thinks may be we are against her. She is super negative. Any disease like gastritis when gets not cured, she feels she is suffering from any big disease and needs big treatment in big hospital, if we do treatment in our city hospital or with city doctor then she thinks we are not doing enough for her. When we grew up, I came to know from our father that she had depressive episodes when we are very young. She used to beat things violently, beat us at times. Currently she has ibs (irritable bowel syndrome) and with other medicines, tryptomer helped very much. I want to know ,what this psychological issue can be called. Anxiety disorder, depression or anything else or nothing? And what could be best thing to address this. This is effecting our life quality.

It appears that you mother has chronic mild depression and left untreated along with a depressive personality disorder, has taken on a huge cost on your family.

I also think that we could be addressing this with medications and improve her quality of life. You should also consider getting a second opinion online with us so that we can try to help you better.

1.Use Deep Breathing

Deep breathing is another effective way to relieve stress and anxiety. It helps you with physical symptoms such as shallow breathing and rapid heart rate, and it also helps with controlling your thoughts. When you practice deep breathing, you're forced to take your thoughts off of whatever is causing you anxiety and to focus on the breathing technique that you are using.

2.Keep A Journal

Journaling can be an effective way to deal with your anxiety ...more

Dear user if you don’t want to take medication for life time then please wake up yourself, medicines are not a perfect solution for mental health, you have to work on your own, your will power, your mind and thoughts. You are too young. But due to certain reasons if you are on antidepressants you have to take some extra care of yourself. I donã¢â€â™t know what are the circumstances under which you are taking medicines, I want to know the whole details about your disorder. But I must say donã¢â...more

Yes, with your psychiatrist advise you can mix and give. Leaving one medicine asprito and giving the other may not be beneficial, sometimes defeats the purpose. Asprito also come under the brand name arip mt mouth dissolving form, which easily dissolves. Good luck.

You are being treated for depression and social phobia but you don't say for how long. Treating this condition with medication only will not suffice. Please consult with a counselor for methods of coping with your problems. Your phobia and anxiety are likely causing loneliness. There is a lot of fear associated with your life and people and that has to be dealt with pronto. You will avoid people because you are suspicious of them. Do some Yoga meditation, and lots of exercise. A large and strong...more

Smartphone or internet addiction can also negatively impact your life by: increasing loneliness and depression. While it may seem that losing yourself online will temporarily make feelings such as loneliness, depression, and boredom evaporate into thin air, it can actually make you feel even worse.
