KK normally 'cure' patient first B4 referring to specialist. When kk dr refer patient to a specialist, he has to rite loads of reasons and what treatment was done. Otherwise kena tembak by specialist.

My refer letter to see a specialist contains 2 pages of writing. Not sure about those terms used.

Seldom gip mc just for referral. Patient won't have the chance to see specialist on the day. Referral letter is only for future appointments.

Will be honest, "cure" before specialist is something that I don't want to put myself into first. referral >> schedule appt >> take leave. I also wish can get MC just for referral haha.

Popular, there are apps on this as well, but honestly they are just a bunch of echo chambers and I don't trust them one bit.

self diagnosis and self help therapies are not replacement for real.... but it give you a point to narrow or gain another opinion quickly so you can ask your physician or psychiatrist.

Even seeing psychiatrist, you will need to find psychiatry is right or a good fit for you, as not all are the same. some you dont feel comfortable opening up, etc.
then factor in cost involved.

hence I mention do AI for "free psychiatrist feel"

ie test water before diving in deeper and find one that is suitable since TS didnt mention anything serious

if you are bodoh enough to follow AI or forumer advise blindly without thinking thru, I cant help you there  whistling.gif

Asalkan ko jangan bodoh pergi cari chatgpt bila you rasa mcm nak mati, then ok. AI will paraphrase and reaffirm the hell out of your statements without providing any tangible feedback, from my experience anyway.

Depression usually associate with lack of actions
it doesn't need medication for the most part
like I said, seek a professional talk through the problems rather than just relying on medication
visiting prostitutes or severe spending without control that lead to massive debts are also related to traumas and unresolved issues

my depression isn't the I feel like I got nothing worth living type, it's more of the my brain literally can't connect the joy and satisfaction of accomplishing something with the actions that need to be done before I reach that point. Everyone, my family, my friends keep saying that I'm lazy to no end. I have already talked to the psychiatrist about this the first time around, and I will most likely start my meds in a few months.

Just be honest with them and they will guide you accordingly. They won't impose meds on you unless really needed.

I've seen from my relatives that someone had depression for decades and completely relying on medication, and their private life and money management is so fucked up. That's just based on pure observation

Medication can become a grudge for the most part

if your relatives expect meds to be a quick fix then I'm sorry that it doesn't work that way. It's not a magic pill.

If a person has a disorder will they give medicine to try or will they talk with you for a long time before deciding to prescribe anything? Must show extreme panic, discomfort or stress only they believe?
*
If you came for an appointment, there will be an extensive discussion on your symptoms, and what you are looking for at the end of the day. Meds are never the start of treatment unless your symptoms warrant it.

makes me wonder if medication can work forover?

i only depends on adaptogen previously, first few usage can get high, but after that the effectiveness drop macam nothing at all.
yeah i did take those if i felt irritable sometime, it still help though.

honestly i don't expect it to work forever since there is always a chance to develop tolerance, meaning increased dosage over time. You'll definitely have to complement with exercise and healthy lifestyle as well to maximize the benefits.

better some help than nothing at all.
