Patient's question:
I am a 41-year-old woman who has been feeling quite tired recently. I have a sense that something is not right with my health. Could it be this disease? Please ask: How is menopausal depression treated?Doctor's answer:
Depression is a common mental illness, primarily characterized by low mood, reduced interest, pessimism, slowed thinking, lack of initiative, self-blame and guilt, poor appetite and sleep, excessive worry about various illnesses, and a sense of discomfort in multiple parts of the body. In severe cases, it may lead to recurrent thoughts and actions of suicide. It is recommended that a combination of traditional Chinese medicine and psychological therapy can achieve significant therapeutic effects. Traditional Chinese medicine can help regulate mood, clear the mind, relieve liver qi stagnation and phlegm, balance qi and blood, and restore the function and balance of the body's internal organs while harmonizing yin and yang.
