Can my family doctor give me medication for depression or do i HAVE to see a the!


Question: Yup. Your family doctor can prescribe antidepressants like Prozac, Wellbutrin, Zoloft, etc.

BUT

Antidepressants, ideally, should be treated like morphine. They're an effective way to temporarily treat really severe pain. But it's generally better to try to sort out the cause of your pain or or depression, and deal with that either before or during use of antidepressants.

Yes the Dr can prescribe depression meds.....some Therapists cant if they dont have the right degrees anyways

the treatment can be initiated by the family doctor and if no relief a therapist can be consulted.
