Hello, I need some help concerning my kid’s problem. He is 16 years old and was diagnosed with depression! I thought that he was just moody but it looks like I don’t know my child as well as I thought. So, he has been prescribed with Prozac and he has to attend therapy sessions too. Will that help him?
You have to know that most of the treatments for this kind of condition are based on both medications and therapy sessions. This should be the fastest and safest way for your child to end the depression problem. And I assume that if the medication is not working, it will be replaced, although Prozac is known to be quite effective.
