Amarjeet Purewal's Expert Contributions
  • Mixing xanax xr with xanax ir?

    Is your primary care doctor prescribing the meds or is a psychiatrist? If it is your primary care, have a referral to a psychiatrist who can speak to the issue. READ MORE

  • Anti-anxiety medicine?

    If the meds are in the benzo class, it could affect your studying. May want to talk to your doctors about an antidepressant which also targets anxiety. I would also suggest psychotherapy. READ MORE

  • Can you go to therapy for stress?

    Yes, and can be highly effective. READ MORE

  • Schizoaffective disorder?

    Hello, I would encourage you to discuss the reasons you want one med over the other. A therapist and psychiatrist will explore the full range of options with you. READ MORE

  • MDD due to possible ivermectin overdose?

    I would talk to your psychiatrist about medication adjustments. I would also discuss the lack of progress made with TMS providers. I would continue with the social worker. READ MORE

  • How does CBT work for insomnia?

    There is a specific CBT protocol called CBTi specifically for insomnia and is effective. READ MORE

  • Can I take Trazodone supplementation?

    I would consult with your prescribing Doctor. Trazodpne is a medication and would not think of it as a supplement. READ MORE

  • Gender dysphoria?

    I would encourage you to consider therapy with a therapist who specializes in gender dysphoria. There is not a simple response I could give you. READ MORE

  • I need help?

    Consult your doctor. READ MORE

  • Sleepy?

    I would look at your bedtime routine. No caffeine after 3pm, no exercise close to bedtime, get away from tv/phones/tablets, do some relaxation before bed. READ MORE

  • OCD?

    I would recommend talking with your primary care doctor or school counselor if you are still school. Online searches provide a limited scope of insight and often confirm what we are looking for. If your doctor or counselor confirms, it is easily treatable either with talk therapy and/or antidepressant medication. READ MORE

  • Is it bad? Should I go to the hospital?

    Yes, have your therapist put in a referral to get an MRI of your head. READ MORE

  • Enquiring about my physical health?

    Hello, Fatigue often occurs due to the amount of mental, emotional, and behavior energy put into the worries you have. Lack of motivation often follows the fatigue. Therapy can often help. READ MORE

  • I get weird adrenaline I think?

    I would think of this as joy. You seem to get energy from creative collaboration with others. I would suggest embracing it and not think of it as weird. It may be a very healthy coping mechanism as you grow older. READ MORE

  • Very worried?

    I would suggest considering a partial hospitalization program where you have access to services. READ MORE

  • Understanding individuals' conditions?

    Thanks for sharing and asking an important and hard question. Sometimes it is good to switch treatment providers. I have had patients whom did not work well with me, due to style, approaches, and differences. I would suggest asking lots of questions. I would also suggest being open to feedback particularly as you progress through treatment and diagnosis may shift. Some schools of thought in psych say most depression and anxiety is driven by personality issues. Be mindful that diagnosis can differ in terms of severity as your aunt may have more pronounced systems and you may not. Ask about DBT, dialect behavior therapy, as it is a gold standard for personality issues as well as suicidal tendencies. READ MORE

  • Depression?

    I know asking for help can be challenging. There are college counselors that are trained to assist at almost no cost. I would recommend seeking some help. READ MORE

  • Can a psychologist help with anxiety?

    Absolutely. READ MORE

  • Is CBT better than psychodynamic therapy?

    I tend to prefer CBT approaches, but both are equally effective. READ MORE

  • What is the difference between a psychologist and a neuropsychologist?

    A neuropsychologist is a psychologist who specializes in psychological assessments of brain functioning, abilities via psychological testing. All psychologists can do testing and assessments, but neuropsychologists take extra training. READ MORE
