Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi

I understand your concern.

Mental illness and physical illness both are related to each other.

Depression is commonly seen in long standing physical illness.

1st proper treatment of physical illness is necessary then we have to evaluate psychological stress then other problems.

If you are taking antidepressant then it will show improvement in depression in 2 to 3 weeks.

so please continue to take it.

Antidepressant will help you.
Require compliance and regular follow up to your psychiatrist.

Still have a query then feel free to ask.

happy to help you.

Thank you.
