Your doctor may prescribe lithium for long periods of time (months or years). It's important to continue treatment, even when you feel well. Lithium is not a cure, but it is able to help control symptoms and prevent relapse while you are taking it. For probable betterment by alternative, pl talk in details by booking audio or video call.

She gets a very warm face daily and her learning is still a challenge. She struggles to study and retain information. How do I assist her?

I think your daughter may be treated for Bipolar 1. I suggest you take her immediately to a counselor and treat her with talk therapy too. In her later adolescence, there are likely to be some unresolved issues that may go as far as prenatal influences. It comes up at this time seeking a resolution. But unfortunately not many are aware of this and will go untreated and compound the disorder. Both parents must also accompany her to help trace the problems encountered in childhood.

I am 43 years old unmarried woman. I am 78 kgs and 5' 2 inches. I am diagnosed with bipolar disorder. I feel anxiety. Mujhe dar lagta rehta hai. Mujhe ghabrahat hoti rehti hai. Mera mood off rehta hai. Mera kaam karne ka mann nahin karta. I feel no motivation to do any work. I am taking divaa - 500 mg two times daily, sizodon ls one time at night and ativan 2 mg daily one time at night. I am taking etilaam 0.5 for ghabrahat. Mujhe yeh medicines lena ke baad bhi motivated feel nahin ho raha. Is this treatment right?

Dr. Prof Jagadeesan M S94%(13332 ratings)

Psychiatrist•Chennai

Discuss your symptoms with your treating psychiatrist and get the medications revised if they do not help even after taking for a month or so. Many times it is difficult for the psychiatrist to get all the symptoms under control in one go, so give him/ her time and for most the symptoms subside over a period of time. Even after say 3-6 months you still feel unsatisfied, get a second opinion. Good luck.

Asked for male, 19 years old from Akola

Hello sir, i'm manisha. My brother's name is prathamesh. He is doing his graduation. From the past few months he has been sitting in one room for a long time. Not spending time with family and friends. He broke up with his girl who cheated on him and he is like now nothing remains in his life. Same thing we have to say to him again and again still he is not understanding. Sometimes crying alone. His friends told us his behavior also does not look normal. He behaves like he is in deep thinking. Me and my family just want to make sure he is just his nonsense/laziness or really he needs treatment.

Hi, I can understand your concern for your brother. He must be going through the break up depression. De does need to be handled by professional psychologist and if needed for medical treatment. Many times counseling itself helps though it takes a little long. Family support is the most important key factor.
