Depression
When we consult a psychiatrist for depression issues, during the process do we need to share our personal experiences which has effected us leading to depression? What if we're not comfortable sharing? Can the doctor help us to cure depression? without knowing the reason for which you're crying and struggling?

Hi,
There are two ways of resolving your issue. One is treating the symptoms in the superficial level. Other is resolving the root cause of the issue.
Treating your symptom is good & gives you a very temporary relief. But resolving the emotional root cause will be a permanent remedy.
Next Steps
it's up to you to decide if you want to get a temporary relief or permanent resolution
Health Tips
Talking to the right counselor will build up your confidence to open up to resolve your root cause of the problem.Anyhow you are going to pay the psychologist. so why temporary solution you prefer..resolve your issue completely.!
All the best!

Yes. Psychiatrist usually work on symptoms and not with your problem per say
I believe you should discuss your concerns in detail with a mental health professional to gain an insight about nature of problem and ways to overcome it through psychotheraputic techniques

Dear Mam
It's not mandatory to share everything. It's ur choice and rights.
In psychiatry we always follow ethics. So confidentiality is well maintained.
Still Patient is free to share what part he/she likes. But don't worry. We understand you well from your complains and ask indirect questions, for better clarity. Many of my patients says no they are not ready now discuss the issues in detail. We understand them. So be assured that your privacy will be maintained with respect.
Next Steps

Health Tips
