1438412 tn?1315507919 I was really wondering what happened as follow up. When you go back do you just have to have one treatment? I had my 5 th treatment today. Wednesday should be my 6th seeing my dr on Monday. I think my memory problem has been associated with depression because it has actually improved. Thank you for sharing with me that you had ECT. When you hear from someone who has been through it helps with the fear.
Avatar f tn Highly unlikely, but if you are trying to overdose you need to go immediately to the emergency room. You need to be in a hospital setting until you get stabilized. The fact you're writing on this forum suggests you really don't want to die, so go to the hospital, get stabilized, and then with a psychiatrist figure out a plan to learn what you do want and how you might get there. Good luck and get help now.
Avatar f tn My Cardiologist and 3 Drs at the hospital did extensive research and were unable to find any suitable medication for me, to assist in the treatment of my depression - I have since had 3 seperate admissions to the psych unit at the hospital - apparently I have Borderline Personality Disorder (which I was diagnosed with 15 years ago and I have been told it is like alcoholism - it is always there) alongside the depression and am suffering through grief at the passing away recently of my mother.
Avatar m tn 3, a few days ago she a whole bottle of anti-depression medicine. she was taken to the local hospital and was out for about two days, Tests on her organs came out fine. she came to yesterday. a psychiatric group went to see her and she said that she indeed try to harm herself. My question: What is the protocol for a suicide attempt. we were told that she was REQUIRED to go to a pysch ward for a few days for an evaluation. is this true?

314833 tn?1263259499 t know that this is still being offered as a treatment for depression. I think most think of the movie one who flew over the cuckcoo's nest. It's not like that anymore...you are put to sleep for maybe 10 minutes while they shock the brain. Has anyone tried ECT? I know this helped me...I did the treatment for 3 weeks everyday and then did every other friday for a month. Only side affects were headaches, memory loss. If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask...I am an open book.
Avatar f tn these meds can make a huge difference in peoples lives and for many will help them get through treatment since the tx drugs can cause depression.
Avatar f tn People do get better from depression, with treatment. If you have mania/bipolar disorder it is likely you will need medication for life but it is possible to be stable without depression and manias, if you take the medication. Life with out the hospital unit is defiantly possible as well, depending on how long you were there will change how hard it is to adapt. I hope this answers your question.
Avatar n tn I constantly feel like im going to burst into tears and feel like I want something bad to happen to me, so I end up in hospital. I think Iv suffered with depression before and ave resorted to self harm, I now have an obvious scar on my arm. I feel asthough I have no confidence and I feel a burden to my boyfriend as i feel so sad all the time, although he says he will always be here for me and he understands that i may be sad, he just want me to be happy again.
2011699 tn?1328933353 A serious potential side effect of Hep C treatment is depression. People who suffer depression while taking treatment, people who have thoughts of suicide or self-harm or people with a family history of depression should be encouraged to access support and counseling. Anyone with a history of depression should be monitored throughout their treatment to make sure that treatment is not causing a major depressive episode.
Avatar m tn I think this week you should either go to the county mental health clinic, or go to the hospital emergency room, or go see any doctor as soon as you possibly can. What you have is an ordinary mental disorder, I think it's called paranoia, which some people do get that, rather a lot of folks suffer with it. It causes them to think someone is "out to get them.
Avatar m tn m curious because I never asked anyone before, what situation or symptom or whatever was it that got you to realize you needed treatment for your mental illness? Did you get treatment right away or was it delayed?
Avatar m tn Hospitals in your area that have opiate addiction programs. Under this act the hospital will provide free treatment for a certain percentage of patients in return for federal subsidies.
547913 tn?1317355667 I also recommend a counselor to help him sort out the cause of his depression. Make sure he is getting the proper treatment that he needs and I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers....
Avatar f tn I'm currently seeing a counsellor concerning depression/anxiety, and am still wavering on the idea about telling her of my binging/laxatives/over exercising. Is a counsellor qualified anough to give me the support I want? She is unable to give out medication, and I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not. Would you advise seeing someone different (a psychologist) and requesting medication, or sticking with therapy? What has/hasn't worked for you?
1564367 tn?1295997670 I have been diagnosis with chronic severe depression. And realizing as of lately I have Autism - Asperger's Syndrome. Is there a treatment for this disorder? I take Prozac for the depression.
Avatar f tn What is Dianxite? I've never heard of it. Is it something you can buy over the counter? Did a doctor prescribe it? If you are feeling badly, please consult and doctor. You need NOT suffer. Do you have a therapist. If you don't, please ask your family doctor or call your nearby hospital to give you referrals. There IS help out there. Please don't hesitate to get the help you need. Please keep me posted.
Avatar f tn re not already on anti-depressants, they may be recommended before you start treatment as the treatment drugs can make depression worse.
Avatar f tn Is there another reason you think you maybe suffering with depression? If you were suffering from depression and they diagnosed you, they would have informed you of the diagnosis- did they mention anything of the sort?

Avatar n tn My 8 yr old son recently had to be sent to a behavioral treatment center and I am trying to understand what is going on. He told the principal he wanted to kill himself and we took him to the Doctor, after a discussing the issue with our son and the Doctor we felt the best treatment would be in the hospital. Once he was there they did all sorts of testing and came back with the diagnosis of ADHD, ODD and Depression.
Avatar m tn When I was at the hospital they told me it was for a depressive episode later after I got out but the psychiatrist told me I didn't have enough criteria for depression before I was told that while I was staying there which I don't know why they would tell me conflicting information like that. Anyway, they said it was a depressive episode when I actually didn't feel sad at all but rather anxious and stressed out beyond belief.
Avatar f tn Welcome to the forum. I agree with Idyllic that there are some pieces missing from your medical history and some of it is not clear. It is not clear what is meant by "positive." Are you sure you have Chronic Hepatitis C or do you just have the antibodies (which are referred to as being positive of negative). If you do have Hepatitis C, then you do need to be Genotyped and you do need to find out what your current viral load is.
