Dear Nandlal,
Both are good. Such combination studies are not done usually. So, you can use whichever combination works for you. But at the age of 64, it is better to use etizolam.

They say-if you are feeling blue, get some green. Spending time outdoors with nature can do wonders for mental health. Spending time with friends or even people in general, also helps.

With these small changes in lifestyle, you are bound to get back to normal.

Ssris are the best available drug and you can start low dose of ssri and gradually titrate to reduce dose dependent side effects. Sexual side effects are not so common as you think.

You will need a preliminary evaluation before starting medications. So, you can consult me online or any other good psychiatrist nearby before st...more
