Brief Answer: CONSULT A PSYCHIATRIST IMMEDIATELY Detailed Answer: Hi XXXXX Thanks for your query. Firstly, Nexito is an anti-depressant and used alone or in combination with other drugs, for treatment of depression, anxiety, panic attacks. The symptoms of extreme depression are recurrent thoughts of death (not just fear of dying), recurrent suicidal ideation without a specific plan, or a suicide attempt or a specific plan for committing suicide; feelings of worthlessness or guilt, low self-esteem, sleeplessness, lack of interest in everything, extreme irritability, short-temper, crying most of the time, extreme fatigue, diminished ability to think or concentrate, or indecisiveness.

Brief Answer: Treatment needs modification. Detailed Answer: Hi XXXXX, I cannot comment upon the seriousness, as you have not mentioned your symptoms. However, I have already given you the symptoms which signify the severity of the disease. I will be able to tell you the seriousness, if you enumerate your symptoms from the list given above. Lastly, depression is a treatable disease and therefore is not a cause of worry. Inculcate positive thoughts, be brave and optimistic : it is just a temporary bad patch. Your medication and its dose; or, addition of another drug, needs to be increased gradually till your depression under complete control.

Brief Answer: It is a very serious problem. Detailed Answer: Well XXXXX You are only 21. At this age, it is very difficult to differentiate between love and infatuation. There are no arguments or differences in love. I sincerely feel that it was not love but merely attraction or infatuation. You have a long way to go : stop being a martyr. Be pragmatic : think from the mind and not heart. Come out of it. God has much better plans and a brighter future for you. There may be some delay, but- sooner or later- you will find true love : a true companion and life partner who will always keep you happy. It is utter foolishness to run after someone who does not love or care for you. Perhaps, he was never yours. Thank God, that you realized this fact, before it was too late. I suggest that you take your mom into confidence. TELL HER EVERYTHING : SHE WILL UNDERSTAND, GIVE YOU TREMENDOUS MORAL SUPPORT AND ALSO GUIDE YOU. By suffering alone, you are inflicting more pain and torture on your parents. You can imagine what will happen if they come to know about your affair from someone else. You are very mature, wise and courageous. Muster your courage and speak to your mom. It is very unfortunate that you are wasting your life for someone who doesn't love you. Being the only child of your parents, you have lot of responsibilities on your shoulder. At your age, you should prove yourself to be a Guardian of your parents: they have lots of dreams and aspiration for you. DO NOT LET THEM DOWN. RISE, AND ASSUME YOUR DUTIES TOWARDS YOUR PARENTS. HAVE COMPLETE FAITH IN ME AND FOLLOW MY ADVICE. YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IN FUTURE. Go and consult a good Psychiatrist (if you have not consulted so far) before it is too late. As such, your condition is very serious. If professional advice and appropriate treatment is not started immediately, you will ruin your life. DO NOT resort to self-medication, as it will do more harm than good. You can always share your innermost feelings with me, discuss your problems, seek my advice anytime, without any hesitation, shyness or shame. You need a guide/mentor to show you the right direction. I have great confidence in your capabilities and wisdom. So XXXXX all the best. Hope you will give a serious thought to my advice. I will be there by your side, whenever you need me. OK? Be a good and sensible girl, Dr. Rakesh Karanwal
