Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am a 22-year-old male. For the past few months, I have been unable to think or act. I do not know how to talk, and I become blank many times. My brain feels heavy all the time and I have lost every contact that I had. I just feel lazy, and my brain just seems to be irresponsive. I used to smoke weed but now I have stopped. I get suicidal thoughts also and I just do not know what I am doing. I forget things and I am unable to think. I am just living in the present. Please help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
With passion, commitment, and experience, I hope I will be able to provide you with top-class medical opinion.
Thank you for taking help from a psychiatrist. I can understand your situation. You may have cannabis use disorder and it can be managed non-pharmacologically. I suggest you follow the below guidelines to deal with it:
Live your life. Do not just spend it. Be bold and confident.
Suicide is not the solution to any problem, as every problem has one good solution. I suggest you start taking the capsule Fluoxetine 20 mg daily in the morning after breakfast after consulting with your physician.
I wish you good health.
Thank you.
