Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi,

From what you have mentioned, it seems that you area suffering from a depressive episode. The symptoms of sadness, irritability, crying etc are highly suggestive of depression. In addition you lower back pain needs to be evaluated.

I would suggest that you seek a psychiatric consultation for initiation of treatment of depression and an orthopaedic consultation for evaluation of low back pain. Treatment with anti-depressants like escitalopram would be helpful. Regarding low back pain, analgesics and bed rest with avoiding straining your back will be helpful.

Best wishes.
