Asking For Self, Female 24, lahore
How long will I need to take escitalopram (cironex). I am severe depression and anxiety patient. Diagnosis of ptsd.
dear ,you are young and can manage things ,I suppose you can help your self and can taper medicine easily when feels good
in my opinion you need to consult for it properly with Pshyciatrist as tapering has to be smooth so the symptoms don't come back.
also you need to learn the skills to manage anxiety.
staying in touch with your doctor will help you in better way.
without knowing full history , cannot advise on treatment duration
If you continue to take this medicine for your whole life your problems will not be solved. As when you leave this medicine your condition will become worse again. What you need is psychotherapy from clinical psychologist. As mental health related problems are treated best with both of them. With medication and psychotherapy your condition will improve fast and relapse might not occur.
your height and weight
Thank you for asking.
This need an assessment.
Kindly book online for a detail assessment and further treatment guidance accordingly.
