  1. What Are The Best Types Of Treatments For Severe Depression? pinnaclehealth0.livejournal.com/586.html The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved four new antidepressants to treat patients with severe depression. The medications are bupropion, escitalopram, fluoxetine, and milnacipran. These four medications are the most commonly prescribed medications in the United States by physicians. Bupropion, escitalopram, and fluoxetine are among the most popular antidepressants in the country. These antidepressants are prescribed to help patients deal with the symptoms of depression. Some experts suggest that some of these medications may be useful for some types of depression, but they do not provide a cure. They are not always effective, and they can cause unpleasant side effects for some people. Many people choose to take the antidepressants instead of seeing a psychiatrist talk about their feelings and get professional assistance. However, if you suffer from depression and you don't feel comfortable talking to someone face to face, you can use an antidepressant instead. 1/2

  2. People with depression are at a higher risk of suicide, and experts believe that untreated depression can increase the risk of suicide in adolescents and adults. The medication treatment for severe depression can improve the moods of those who suffer from it and allow them to feel better. However, untreated depression can lead to serious depression disorders, which can lead to other mental disorders or even suicide. Therefore, treating depression is very important. Symptoms of severe depression are different in people. There are many symptoms that may indicate that a person may be suffering from severe depression. These include loss of interest in activities that they normally enjoy such as sports, hobbies, relationships, sex, work, and school. Changes in sleeping and eating patterns as well as having trouble getting out of bed and staying awake are also common in those who suffer from severe depression. In some cases, the symptoms of severe depression may indicate that there may be physical problems too. SSRIs or Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors are the most commonly prescribed antidepressants in the US today. Commonly known as the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, these drugs help increase the amount of serotonin in the brain. This helps lessen the symptoms of depression by allowing serotonin to be more effectively used by the body. Some people can be particularly sensitive to the side effects of SSRIs, so it is important that pregnant women who are on these medications talk to their doctors before starting any treatment. Some of the possible risks during pregnancy for those who are on SSRIs include unusual bleeding, possible miscarriage, and premature delivery. If you are depressed, it is important that you talk to your doctor about possible treatment. This will ensure that you get the best treatment for the symptoms of depression and to keep your health safe. Talking to your doctor may help you avoid many dangerous health conditions as well as being happier. Depression is serious, but there are many people who can help those who suffer from it by speaking with a qualified doctor or specialist.
