Suggest Treatment For Depression

Im not necessarily sure if this is a real problem or not, but lately I have been very irate and annoyed by everything. I feel extremely emotional about everything. I get so mad by the smalles of things at times, like i could punch something or someone, and sometimes i feel like this for no reason at all. It doesn t come around at any specific time, it s a constant thing. I have become less of a social person, and exclude myself from things because of this. I also hide how i feel so no one can see it. Is there anything you could suggest?

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for writing to us,

I went through the history you have provided. Symptoms of social withdrawal, irritability, anger outbursts and being very sensitive and emotional could be a part of an underlying depressive illness.
It would require a detailed evaluation by an experienced psychiatrist to diagnose the problem.
If it is so, then you may expect treatment in the form of medicines or therapy depending on the severity of the problem.
You first require an evaluation.

Hope this helps,
D A Rao
