Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
For the past four years I have had severe episodes of depression. Because they mostly happened in the winter I associated it with the weather. But not its happening all the time and I can t seem to find joy in anything. I constantly have these horrible thoughts and feelings. I can picture myself ending it in all kinds of ways but I don t really want to. I don t know what s wrong with me. I need help before its too late.
Your description suggests that you are developing depression.
I would advice you to consult a psychiatrist asap. Drugs like escitalopram or sertraline are used to treat depression. Also, psychological therapies like cognitive therapy can be done by a psychologist to help in treatment. Green vegetables and fruits can boost serotinin levels naturally to help in depression.
Hope this helps. Thanks
