I am a teenager. My mother (age 49) has been taking d-veniz 50 since 2016 (daily 2 tablets) as prescribed for depression. And sadly, there is hardly any change in her mental health. She is sometimes very happy and again gradually becomes sad, starts over thinking and even cries. And the major concern is that the medication has become her addiction. If she tries to stop the routine of not taking even a single dose, she starts feeling dizzy, feels to vomit, her head pains, she also says that when she feels dizzy, even a slight movement of her head would make her vomit. Why is this so? Please help me. My mother also suffers from involuntary urination during sleep (at night). If you're a doctor reading this, please reply.

I strongly suggest that your mother goes for counseling in tandem with her medication. She can learn a lot of skills, tools, and techniques to help her cope with this condition. In the meantime please make her do the following sincerely because she could resolve the problem better with good cooperation: have a good night?s sleep, have a good breakfast of more proteins, meditate often, remain free of stress, eat a lot of fiber, nuts, avocado, exercise regularly, eat dark chocolate, do yoga meditation exercises, etc. I suggest she does the opposite of what this depression makes her feel like doing (actually, not doing): she will need to fight this condition. She must become active; stay upright during the daylight time; meet people; never sleep during the day, wake up by 6 am every day, play some active games, especially contact games, do physical exercises, talk to people and join some social clubs, attend yoga classes etc. Watch sitcoms on tv or comedies and cheer herself up. Go for excursions in groups, for outings, camps, conferences, and religious conventions. Get a pet dog and spend time training it, exercising it and relating to it. Expose herself to some sunlight every day, at least 30 minutes but not in the scotching heat. Whatever happens, please incorporate these three important adaptations in her life: always be responsible, be respectful, and be functional. If she did these three, lots of things will go well in life. Please have her pray and have faith in god to alleviate her sufferings. Don?t wait for others to help. Use her own motivation, which might be at its lowest, but persevere and win this battle. Above all to be really happy, she needs to live in love and for love: find someone to love and to love her back, I assume dad is there. Learn all about emotions and how to handle them and that will get her out of the depression rather easily and quickly. A counselor is there only to facilitate her, all the hard word must come from her, and her cooperation with that person is very critical for her success. Be positive everyday and learn to be contended with what she has. Whatever happens please cooperate with the therapy and do not discontinue until the condition is completely resolved.
