Chronic Depression

What do you think about Chronic Depression?

Ano kaya ang cure nito?

[mbt]

cure? counseling lang talaga for the most part, pwede ring hypnosis para ma-adress yung root cause nung depression (grabe, hypnosis and trance really work on some people, nakakatakot na nga e hehe) . there's really no sure-fire cure; anti-depression drugs aren't very effective kasi once tinanggal na yung gamot, babalik na yung depression.

friends and social support is extremely critical for chronically depressed patients. and of course, patience. delikado kasi yung mga suicicdal na

Do a research on St. John's Wort. It's an herb to treat mild depression. It raises your serotonin levels and it has been used in Europe for a while now. It made it to the US around 5 years ago. It's not an instant cure, you have to take it everyday and you'll notice the effect after 3-4 weeks of taking it. Do a research on this first before you buy any. I'm not sure where you can find these here though.

Minsan talaga gamot ang kailangan dito. Depression could be from chemical imbalance. Hindi mo lang pwedeng tiisin ito because it would just make you more miserable.

stink..consult a professional...

hindi masama ang kumonsulta dun.malaki matutulong nila.

dapat matanggal ang stigma sa atin na pag nag consult ka sa kanila ay baliw ka.actually kahit normal na tao, dapat nag coconsult din sa kanila.

goodluck pare.

*** lang gamot nyan. get laid 2x before bedtime and you can forget about going to the doc.

or may personal problems ka na di mo mailabas (papaya lang katapat nyan!) can lead to blood poisoning din yan ha!


o wag ka magalit, pinapatawa lang kita, baka sakaling magamot ng konting humor :-)

Eto pescribed sa akin. Stopped taking it already.

Jovia Dosage & Drug Information | MIMS Philippines

Escitalopram oxalate.

Escitalopram has a primary high-affinity binding site and a secondary lower-affinity allosteric site in the serotonin transporter protein. Binding of escitalopram to the allosteric site enhances binding of the drug to the primary binding site, resulting in more complete serotonin reuptake inhibition. This also explains the enhanced potency of escitalopram compared with citalopram.
In vitro studies showed that escitalopram had no, or minimal effect on noradrenaline (NA), dopamine (DA) and gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) uptake.

ung bromazepam is a benzo drug same as the famous valium

for anxiety (not for depression)

ang trabaho ng benzo drugs pababagalin ang takbo ng isip kaya ang effect kakalma ka at aantokin

sa pagkaintindi ko it doesn't have to do with serotonin

the other 2 drugs (olanzapine and mirtazapine) are antidepressants

although hindi sila SSRI, they target the serotonin system
