Dear Doctor,

There are reasons that cause emotional disorders on PD patients. I am one of the suffers for many years. It is related with my matrimonial relationship. There are certain issues are sensitive to me but not for partner. the emotional disorders causes me depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders.

Some doctors treat it as their privacy and refer to psychiatric or counselling . They prescribe antidpression doses to relieve the disorders as they are not trained in this field.

What are the role of the PD specialist for the emotional disorders is it limited only presciption antidepressions drugs only? They refer the emotional disorders as a psychistric or psychotherapy.

Kindly elaborate the above

It depends on what the comfort level of your PD specialist has. Some do not even prescribe anti-depressants and anti-anxiety agents. They simply refer to a psychiatrist and psychologist.

Others prescribe the medications but do not do psychotherapy, so they refer to psychologist or marriage and family counselor but give the medications.

A few do both pharmaco- and psycho-therapy.

Yours,

Dear Doctor,

I am suffering emotional orders for many years. I have consulted marriage counselling and psychiatrist for treatment.
They are not helpful for my sickness as they listen to one side of story as the suffer in in trouble in the matrimonial relatinship with his/her partner.

In this connection I have to thank Dr, Chew Nee Kong of Pantia Cheras Hospital Kuala Lumpur who is the Movement Disorders Specialist who diagnosed my emotional disorders in my matrimonial relationship with my partner i.e without considerate for doing things and hurting me and sensitive issues that I do not accept it . I lost my dignity and respect in the society. Therefore he slowdowns my emotional disorders,

From the above experience some emotional disorders to be cured not by medication but my observation.

Kindly elaborate'

Dear Teo,
I can't offer any information additional to that given by Dr. Fernandez, unfortunately. Very often, a good and sensitive marriage counselor is the answer; sometimes, antidepressant medication is the best solution. It sounds as though you found the ideal physician in Dr. Chew Nee Kong, and I only wish everyone was as fortunate.
