A member asked:
I think i've got both depression + anxiety. will i need medication for both? is this harmful?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't worry: Try not to worry too much. Some medications can be used to treat both (like serotonin reuptake inhibitors). Just remember that treatment outcomes are better if psychotropic medication is bolstered with talking therapy (like cognitive behavioral therapy).
