DEPRESSION | How do Doctors Diagnose & Treat Depression?

[@5SpeedAngel]

My family has finally taken the hint that crying on the daily and my dissociation with the family is depression. I'm going to the doctors tomorrow morning and I'm nervous as hell. I'm always nervous for the doctors.

@@alluringvoice7081 so I've never played roblox. And my doctor's appointment went well. They suggest therapy but de to covid putting therapist like 6 weeks out. They're having me try antidepressants for 2 months. I'm jus glad I could ask my boyfriend since he's gone through this before. And good luck

How are you doing?

[@stormrogue8968]

i want to get a diagnosis but i dont want to talk to anyone about it like my family literally stated yesterday "in this family we dont believe in depression. ur just a little sad get over it" so whenever the doctor gives me the sheet that asks about the symptoms of depression i just check out no for all of them :(

[@bdjshsjsjskahakahajak]

Hi!! thank you so much for this! i think i have depression and I have been down for months now, but i’m scared to get a proper diagnosis because of my parents :(

[@DoctorNosa]

I’m so sorry to hear, if you’re in the U.K., speak to your GP 💕

[@DrErwinKwun]

Great to see you raising awareness on Mental health Doctor Nosa. Exercise is definitely important for not only the body but the mind. Having a good support network is also important particularly when things aren't going well.

[@DoctorNosa]

Thanks Dr Erwin!

Nice video... Alot of events around us presently can cause depression. Doctors are not left out of people that are depressed, for example unfavourable working condition, especially in developing countries... The video is helpful.

[@DoctorNosa]

Thanks oladayo! Very good points made! And thanks for watching

[@kole1ful]

I was just thinking about you today, and you blessed us with a video 🥺😩☺️🤗

[@DoctorNosa]

Aww thank you!! Lots of love 💗

[@kele6wele]

Like the way you went through this, would love to hear you talk through other common presentations in GP.

[@AleX29557]

I think i have most of these when she said the s in sige caps i flinched I'm also scared that the doctor will just think I'm overreacting thanks for the amazing video by the way

[@DoctorNosa]

Sending lots of light & positivity your way and your doctor should believe you if you have all the symptoms in sigecaps 💕

[@louist7691]

Thanks for sharing! Depression is real and a menace to those who have had an experience

GREAT TOPIC! The incidence of depression in our medical community is also a concern and we need to normalize it so that people feel like they can get the help they need.

[@DoctorNosa]

Completely agree! So common amongst healthcare professionals

[@His_Grace_Is_Sufficient1]

This is very informative. Thank you 😊

[@DoctorNosa]

Glad to hear! Thanks!

[@sarab7794]

So basically a Q&A. Seems very testimonial.

[@SH-mh5dy]

Love to watch your vlogs again and again..♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@DoctorNosa]

Thank you so much😍💗

[@princemab7261]

Thank you for this timely video. As an IMG who’s applying for FY program in the UK, I’ve experienced some low mood episodes in the course of my application due to no being able to meet certain requirements. Thank God I was able to recognise the onset of anhedonia accompanied by irregular appetite and sleep patterns. I reached out to my family and a few trusted friends, but above all, the Joy of the Lord filled me each I prayed and/or read the holy scriptures. I’m happy I did and now I feel more elevated

[@DoctorNosa]

Prince Hamza, I know the process is not an easy one, glad you could get the help you needed 🙏

[@bailey.2325]

[@TheGatewayProductions]

Awesome upload!

[@DoctorNosa]

Thanks!

[@lovely_hadassahfanpage7598]

I think I might have depression bc I have 7 symptoms of it and I also have anxiety but I'm scared to ask my mum bc my sister has depression and anxiety

[@quacksters7523]

The question is how do I get help I’m 13 and I’m scared nobody will believe me

[@Cindrella-N-98]

Hello Doctor Nosa, I am a second year medical student in the University of Botswana and I would like to appreciate you you such an inspiration to me 😍😍😍😍 and I would really appreciate it if you become my mentor 😍

[@DoctorNosa]

[@Cindrella-N-98]

@@DoctorNosa You welcome😍 I will surely contact you whenever necessary, I have sent you a message at Instagram

[@lauraking206]

hii so, i think i have either depression or bipolar (not including my other symptoms of stuff only the main focuses) my symptoms are found in bipolar and depression, except for my mood swings that are stress, to much confidence, super low sadness, and high anger. some of them come together at once. so i get quite confused. and i don't want to like- not get diagnosed cause if i get tested and it's negative then it'll be embarrassing as heck. so idk what to do but im thinking of getting tested

[@cocapacket6608]

Hey! Great video, but if I go will they make my mom leave the room when I get tested?

[@gregory3340]

This morning I had to see emergency doctor about depression and she scored me 16..and put me on 20mg fluoxetine

[@arzooray3145]

I’m suffering from severe depression I don’t know how to get rid of it from last year. I gained weight I have no desire of anything. I’m very tired extremely tired mentally emotionally drained depression hurts physically too I hardly push myself to take a shower. I also lost my Father few months ago 😓I’m from USA I don’t have health insurance that’s why I’m unable to see doctor or get any help I also have thyroid issues I’m on medication my level is fine

[@mae7324]

i’m going to the doctors tomorrow and i’m really nervous because i have most of these things :(

[@ghostiilove7280]

I and tempted to ask my mom about this, since I have just cut again, but I’m scared to ask, I’m scared my age of 11 won’t be taken seriously, I’m scared that if I don’t have it I’ll look like a fool Thank you, I think this might’ve motivated me

[@ghostiilove7280]

@@katelynnc1405 thank you for sharing this with me, im so happy things have been going better than expected, thank you for checking up on me but sadly nothing has changed, my family may know but its exactly how i thought it was, they think i wanna be different. ive reached out to childline before and i got probably the worst worker there, i told them my issues and she told me to fix them myself. at this point im tempted to get a family member to get me a therapist.

Have you tried treating yourself with Weedborn CBD products?
