Hi. I had gone through your query. Depression requires proper treatment as early as possible. Early treatment will bring fast and better recovery. It can be treated with different modalities of treatment that include medicines/psychotherapy/ECT. In Medicines SSRI means Escitalopram/sertraline/paroxetine will help. Selection of medicine can depend upon clinical presentations. Supportive psychotherapy and cognitive behavior therapy can help. ECT means electroconvulsive therapy is the choice in severe depression. Consult psychiatrist and get better assistance. Still have query then feel free to ask. Thank you. Wish you a very good health.
