Major Depression: I feel empathy for your discomfort. You deserve relief and increased functioning. Your symptoms indicate Depression and Anxiety. Due to severity of symptoms and lack of response to Behavior Therapy, it will be beneficial to have Gestalt and Insight oriented Therapy and Medication. Discuss with Psychiatrist about Effexor, (venlafaxine) Wellbutrin and Serzone. Use Breathing and Music Relaxation, Yoga, Meditation.
