Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My daughter has been diagnosed with Major DPRSV Disorder Recurrent Episode -Moderate numbers were 296.32. She is 30 yrs old and currently is in remission from substance abuse. After reading all these articles I am a bit confused. Is her depression curable or will this be a lifetime battle for her. She is seeing a therapist too.
Hello this is a chronic , recurrent and life time disease with intermittent partial or complete remissions. Substance use complicates the matter and the out come becomes worse. It can be a life time battle but can be won by taking appropriate medicines and modifying life style under the guidance of a good psychiatrist. DR SAATIISH JHUNTRRAA
