Suggest right treatment for constant crying and depression
Patient: I am currently being treated for depression. It has been really bad the past several weeks and doctor is trying to figure out meds. She is also suggesting that I go to a mental facility where there are doctors that can figure out the right meds. The place is called Prairie St Johns. Anyway, my question is how can psychiatrists in that facility figure out the right meds in just several days while it takes a doctor many times prescribing different meds before they figure it out ? I am at a wits end right now and cant stop crying. I am considering going to the facility but my husband thinks I am looking for an easy way out. What is your opinion? Doctor: DearWe understand your concernsI went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. In my opinion you should go to the medical facility and convince your husband. The doctors there should have more experience in treating such patients with severe depression. Every doctor come across several kind of depression in their practice period. No two cases can be the same. Attending different cases continuously is their experience. Most of the times hind site also works wonders.
