What Causes Anxiety And Depression In Students?

Hello'

I am an engineering student studying at very prestigious college. I am very depressed over the fact that I am not an involved in as many things as I wanted to. It may sound stupid but I feel very awful at times. I don't eat I sleep at 5 o clock in the morning for no reason. I am wondering if I need medical help. But I do not feel hat situation is out of hands, I know I am still sane. I just feel very pathetic sometimes. But I belong to a surrounding where people go to psychiatrist only when they completely loose their mind. And actually I know I am completely sane but coming out of all that is taking long. Should I cosider meeting a doctor?

Psychiatrist 's  Response
HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, main problem in you is comparison with other people. In that case, you should consult a psychologist for psychotherapy. You need cognitive behavioral therapy. It would come out from such kind of thought process. I do not think, you need any medicine, just go for therapy and see the response. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
