Brain scan
Though, never visited any mental health specialist before, I have reasons to believe that I am suffering mentally. And before going for any medication I want my brain scan to be done to pinpoint the issues first. What is the feasibility of brain scan and how effective a detailed brain scan like MRI will help to know the problem with me .

Not every mental health issue is visible in brain scan.... Please consult a psychiatrist or psychologist for assessment of your mental health condition. We use psychometric tests and observation to assess
