Best to be assessed: When having symptoms of a psychiatric condition, it is best to follow up with a qualified mental health physician who can best assess your immediate concerns and determine if you have a condition that requires an individualized approach to wellness.

Yes: Your Dr can assess for mood disorder & causative underlying medical conditions. Talking therapy (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or insight oriented psychotherapy) is allows for lasting change. Psychiatric meds may be indicated. Don't isolate. Spend time w people. Use your support system. Get out. Get at least 8 hrs of sleep/ night & eat healthfully. Daily aerobic physical activity is a big +.
