Suggest Treatment For Anxiety And Depression

I have been experiencing a barrage of things since early childhood. I have had therapists on and off since about 4th grade for things from anger problems to anxiety and depression. I am currently on citalopram although not a very high dose, I think it needs to be increased. I don't remember much of my childhood before about 7 or 8, only small bits and pieces. In that past few years my depression has gotten worse, and gotten to the point where I have had to have weekly meetings with a therapist as mandated by a doctor. I was wondering if you think there would be any evidence of trauma??

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

In that case, you need combination of antidepressant. Better to take citalopram with venlafaxine. That would give you better response. You can discuss this with your psychiatrist. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
