She has some classes that will be difficult.She went to her Family Physician that did a brief questionnaire and said her inability to perform and move forward is due more to depression then ADD. He prescribed Prozac, which scares us due to reports of suicide in young adults.We are afraid to fill the prescription.What should we do.Barry
[|AI|]  Hi Barry As your daughter is suffering from depression, she has to take one antidepressant. Prozac (SSRI) is a good antidepressant. Probable cause of suicide after taking antidepressant- the person having suicide idea and low energy level, after taking medications gets energy to commit suicide. This mainly occurs initial phase of treatment. A person with depression, not taking medication-chance of deliberate self harm/suicide is Moreno I suggest you take medication with close observation/ supervision. Along with medication, you take her for psychological counseling hope this helps and clarifies your concern. Wishing you good health. Chat Doctor.
