Hi, I have a young girlfriend who has become like a daughter to me, and she has been suffering from major anxiety and depression for around a month or longer now.  It started out with insomnia, but she is now sleeping pretty well.  She started out taking magnesium, as she does NOT want to go on anti anxiety or anti represent drugs.  She was still having anxiety, so she went to a holistic doctor who told her to take progesterone, now she is even more anxious  and having suicidal thoughts.  What could she do thats natural to get some peace and quiet from this anxiety and depression?  Thank You for answering.  She really doesnt like to put anything on or in her body.
Hello, Well the symptoms you mentioned need some definite anti-depressant, or otherwise she might really harm herself. By trying out that holistic treatment -has made the condition even worse (as it was a steroid which has mood altering properties). So, if you really want to help her out ask her to stay away from all such things for some time, take proper Chat Doctor.  She needs something like - sertraline or Escitalopram, they are safe, non addicting and effective molecules, will help a lot in bringing her back to life. She should not be left alone, stay away from all kind of dangerous chemical, ropes, weapons, or sharp objects. Try to give meds under supervision. Best will be to contact a psychiatrist near your home at the earliest. Maximum people who try or commit suicide express this verbally many days prior to actually doing it. This should not be taken lightly. I hope you get my point and help her.
