Suggest treatment for anxiety and depression
Patient: Hello, I m 22, I feel like my life isn t where I want it to be. I m in college, but I feel stupid going. I fail most of the classes or I have to drop them because they consist of presentations. I can t even hold a simple conversation with my own mother. Ive isolated myself form everyone including my family. Im always in my room. Most of the time i feel like i don t belong in this world and i want to take my own life away. sometimes i also get urges to kill people. the thing with that is that i hate the site of blood. i don t know who i am. i feel like a failure i want to work for law enforcement , but im too fat to even do that. and im not smart enough to do anything else. i don t know what to do. i already over dosed and i had to go the hospital but i didn t tell them i over dosed and they just thought it was my body reacting to the medication. I feel so lost. Doctor: HIThanks for using healthcare magicI think, you are in depression and in that case, you need antidepressant with low dose benzodiazepine. These drugs would help you to come out of that phase. You can also try some relaxation exercise that would help you to come out of that phase. Better to consult a psychiatrist for proper treatment. In case, you need further help, you can ask.Thanks
