In the morning, a 14-year-old patient with major depression came to the follow-up and greeted me with a smile. It was very different from the first time I came, and I was glad to see that my child was showing signs of improvement.
When the child first came to the doctor, his face was expressionless, his head was bowed and he was reluctant to speak. After communicating with the child's parents, I learned that the child's current problems are mainly depressed, fear of going to school, poor concentration, difficulty falling asleep and easy to have nightmares.
At present, I am taking 3 kinds of antidepressant drugs, and not only has my emotional problems not improved after 3 months of medication, but also increased my weight by 50 pounds.
Through comprehensive syndrome differentiation, I adjusted the western medicine and dosage for the child, and combined it with milder Chinese medicine. The combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine can shorten the onset time of Western medicine, reduce the dosage of Western medicine, and improve the obesity and other problems caused by Western medicine.
Today's follow-up visit, the mother reported that the child has changed a lot, now he can sleep normally, have fewer nightmares, can go to school normally, can concentrate on completing homework, and yesterday he signed up for the spring outing organized by the school with his classmates. The school teachers also reported that the children seemed to be a different person all of a sudden, and they raised their hands to answer questions in class more actively than before.
Now this little girl has recovered well from her emotional state and sleep problems. Consolidation is continuing**.
