My mother always cry whenever she is alone and also have a problem of high blood pressure, gas & stone in stomach. She likes to talk to others and dont want to work anymore because she think that she is physically weak. She always think negative and used to recall all her bad memories of life in the mean time.In our family, My father is usually busy in work, my brother is busy in his studies and i am pursuing my higher education which will complete in next year. As no one is with him thats why she is very depressed and she always tell that she want at least one person to be always with her but one thing positive about her is that she believes in God and like to spend more time on religious stuff.I want her to be always happy, whenever i make a call she told me that, she is fine but she used to cry at least 2 times in 3 days and sometimes more.So, what could be the best treatment to her

### output:

Hi, There are multiple options for treating depressive disorder, the one which your mother appears to be suffering from now. Before starting treatment I want to be sure of few things. I want to know her Thyroid levels in blood. Has she attained menopause and for how long? If not, Is she having disturbed menstrual cycle? How is her appetite and sleep?Also, we need to get her liver function and blood cells checked. Once we are sure that depression is not due to other physical problems she can be started on antidepressants like Escitalopram, Florentine, sertraline. There are numerous other medicines which will help her. The best could be chosen, once she is examined properly. You can also take her to a Psychotherapist so that few sessions of therapies like cognitive behavior therapy could be taken. She can discuss her problems there, and she would be enlightened with new understandings and also will be taught with some new skills which she might be lacking!! Regular food, sleep, exercise are all the first steps that you can right away start with. She can be definitely helped with so get her to psychiatrist for a detailed evaluation by the earliest.
