I've decided to see what I can accomplish on my own...    Dr. Pies' Answer


    Question: My husband has been depressed for a long time. To make things worse, he now has impotency.

How can I help him, if he really feels like talking about why he's depressed makes him feel worse?    Dr. Pies' Answer


    Question: I have a question regarding the coadministration of bupropion and venlafaxine. I am currently on venlafaxine and will subsequently switch to bupropion...    Dr. Pies' Answer


    Question: I'm a 21-year-old male. In the past few months I've started cutting and scratching the inside of my calves with a razor when I get depressed (nothing really deep, just enough so that it bleeds). I don't know what made me start, but I always feel much better afterwards...    Dr. Pies' Answer
