Suggest Treatment For Severe Anxiety, Depression And Paranoia

I need some help. I do have an apoitment with mental health but not until December. I was in detox for alchole about a month ago. Upon returning home my boyfriend took my 3 year old twins and will not let me see them much. Not only is this man my x now but he also is my boss at work. For years now i have had anxiety paronia and depression. Now lately its 100 times worse. I dont want to leave my house. I have been missin time at work. My work has told me to go to the dr and get put off of work so i can get myself right. I do not know how to ask my dr that? Im actually terrified to even go to him. My x and my family this im being stupid but i cant help the way i feel. Its like i know what i have to do but my mind wont let me. How do i ask my dr for help? What could be wrong with me ? I do not understand why 24 hours a day i am feeling like im failing. I keep my doors locked and my curtins closed. I do not want to leace the house. I feel like ppl are talking about me and judging me. Im sad all the time. Nervous amd stressed out all the time. I find it so hard always feeling this way.

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello! Welcome to HealthcareMagic!

Presently your in depressive state. So, now you're suffering with all
the depressive symptoms like feeling low and sad, wanting to stay alone, unable to concentrate on work, low self esteem, etc. I guess you also feel hopelessness and guilt along with sleeplessness. It indicates that you're in a moderate to severe depression state, which ought to be treated with a psychiatrist. Mostly, they prescribe medications like SSRIs and TCAs. I recommend you to consult a psychiatrist immediately. Also, start practicing relaxation exercises like mindfulness, meeting friends, going for a walk in the morning, which will help relieve your stress.

Hope that clarifies your concerns. Thank you for the question.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagawan Rajana, Psychiatrist
