Why do doctors not prescribe PHARMACOGENOMICS (psychiatric drugs) tests for their patients?
I have consulted a couple of psychiatrists ON&OFF. I questioned a few but they did not seem convinced about this test.
I have suffered terribly by the side-effects of psychotropic drugs. I am quite skeptical & scared now to go for the TRAIL & ERROR of the medication treatment. For most people it works & for a few like me they have to suffer badly & it seems hard to find that one drug which will work.
I'm currently a 19 y/o corporate employee and I joined corporate in March 2026. I used to feel lost , tired and exhausted everytime even after full sleep earlier as well but after the job things have got a bit more upscaled as I'm living alone here and it's a night shift that I work . I don't know if it's the schedule or maybe I'm not able to fit in the corporate I don't know. I feel very lonely and often find myself overthinking and panicking and crying in my room frequently or stressing over millions of things. And from past few weeks all i dream of is me working in the company and making mistakes. The pressure is getting heavy and I have lost interest in my hobbies that I loved to do . My food habits have got worsen too . And recently I found I gained sudden weight out of nowhere. I have lost motivation to do things and all I wish for is to just keep laying in my bed cause I'm forever tired . I stopped interacting with people that maybe its a social withdrawal. I'm anxious alltime.
Hi i tried to hurt myself simply like ocd for that what medicine is best i have seizure .....................
In depression (primary) or secondary ( due to any physical reasons), inflammation, migraines etc, is there any loss of brain cells or no? The physical changes caused by depression or the neurotransmitters imbalances, are reversible or no? Is there any damage or loss of brain cells as I can see some websites claiming that depression due to inflammation kills brain cells. How quickly can one recover from this or no? Please guide correctly. Also, in physical and mental stress and loss of sleep, breathing becomes shallow. Does this mean less oxygen is reaching the brain? Please guide. Does it permanently lower cognitive abilities or no?
Also, do psychiatric medicines and rtms cause any harm?
