Please understand health care is not buying medications and having. First of all the doctor has to diagnose the problem. We as Psychiatrists look at the biopsychosocial aspects of the patient and then take a decision as to how to treat the person. Treatment in mental health includes medication treatment and also psychosocial rehabilitation. I recommend that you consult and take the treatment.
