Extreme crying in depress
My dad is 52 years old and is a very old patient of depression. But from last 3 years he has developed bipolar disorder. Currently he is in extreme depression and cries every time. He is taking escitalopram 10mg and desvenlafaxine 100mg in morning, paroxetine 25mg and clobazam 10mg at night. It's been 30 days since start of medicines but he is finding no relief and getting worse day by day. Please suggest what to do. Thanks.

Considering d present treatment, d diagnosis of bipolar disorder appears unlikely. Since d symptoms r worsening despite being on medication, it is advisable to consider ECT. Consult a psychiatrist for more details regarding it.
