Suggest Suitable Therapy For Depression

i am so depressed and my doctor does not take me seriously, i feel fatigued all the time, surfacing out of bed is difficult even if i sleep in till the afternoon, i eat all the time and have put on a lot of weight from binging out, the worse i feel the more i eat, i have become really agrophobic and rarely go out even to see family and friends, i have constant mood swings and will often result to tears without even knowing why, i am eighteen and live independantly and have had a very stressful life, ive spoken to counsellors but it doesnt work and this is ruining my life, please help!!

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello

Welcome to HCM!!!
It seems that you are having a type of depression called atypical depression. Consult your psychiatrist and then start the treatment. Most effective treatment is bupropion in such cases but let your psychiatrist take the shot.

I hope this helps

God Bless
