General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

I suggest her complete psychological counseling first. It is required to diagnose whether anxiety or depression or any other things are happening to her.

You can ask her also or can go to a psychologist for counseling.

As you asked the question, I can give you one medicine, Fluvoxamine.

Is there any headache? I also suggest doing one Thyroid Function Test T3, T4, TSH. With the results and answers please post another question, any doctor can follow her up.

Don't worry and keep her health. tell her to relax and do some meditation also.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dipan Samanta, General & Family Physician
