Wrongfully Convicted, Confined To The Tri State, Upset. Would That Be Exo Or Clinical Depression?

I m in a funk. I was wrongfully convicted and am serving four years probation . I m confined to the Tri State are and it upsets me. Would that be exo- or clinical depression? To complicate matters, I enjoy the theater. That means that I will be 67 years old before I m permitted to visit the Big Apple. Both of my parents passed away at the age of 68.

Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi there ~

I am not clear about your history. Firstly let me say that you would need to visit with a psychiatrist to find out if you have exogenous or endogenous depression. Since you are an ex-convict, you would also need to probably find a forensic psychiatrist to do an assessment as you are on probation. I hope this helps. Visiting theaters and enjoying what you always wanted to enjoy should not be a problem. However, please seek the help of the national suicide helpline 1-800-273-TALK if you need to do so and get some resources.

Take care and have a nice day !
