DEPRESSION: The most complete evaluation for medication is with a Psychiatrist. It's very important to tell the Dr. about suicidal thoughts. First have a physical exam by a Dr. to rule out a physical problem. Please consult with a Clinical Psychologist for psychotherapy to help you with ZOOM.com sessions. Research indicates with psychotherapy you can change & find better coping mechanisms.
