Asking for Self, Male, 29 years old, Mianwali
I have been diagnosed Major depressive disorder and general anxiety.I have approached number psychiatrist and doctors. They recommended me medicines like xanax, brinteloex, paroamax,cispralex etc.I have used these for two plus years. But the did not reduce my problem instead lead to undesirable side effects which i despise. Now i quit the medicine since two months these medicines made me so numb and lady that it was hard to do job. Now i am dealing problems without medicine. Can these problems be sorted out by psychologist only because i have pledged now that i will not use medicine in future in any case. One important question directed to Miss Dr. Ayesha Shahid Sheikh is that if it is possible to sort out the problem through therapy than how many session will i have to take and after how much interval as i am doing job and it is quite impossible for me to frequently visit the lahore ,thanks

aoa. thank you for the question.
In depression, a person goes through a number of thought process that have a problem. with the help of psychological therapy, a therapist, helps in highlighting the thought problem and then give skills to client in order to overcome them.
in most cases a combo of meds and therapy works perfectly. i suggest you continue with both.
if we talk about number of sessions, there is a different case for everyone. On average the sessions go from 7/8 in number or can be increased or decreased in some cases to.
Best Regards
Yes there are several psychotherapeutic interventions that can help.
Not an easy road ahead but you WILL be fine.
you need to work on your thought patterns and also the behaviors which are followed by thoughts. your problem is treatable and yes a psychologists is the one who can help you. but medicines are important for the imbalanced brain chemicals. taking both the treatments (therapy and medicine) will be more effective. usually 12 sessions are enough but it depends on the clients motivation. it depends. and yes you can take online session which will be more feasible for you. May you find happiness and peace. Good luck
Regards
