Why is my treatment not working well?

About the effect of treatment, I think every visitor is most concerned about the issue, to see a doctor in the hospital is certainly want to get well, to solve the problem. However, because of the special nature of psychiatric disorders, here I would like to let you know about the effect of psychotherapy in the process, hoping to help you correctly understand the effect you may encounter in the process of treatment, in order to eliminate doubts and insist on receiving medication and psychological counseling. Drug dosage problem, because anxiety disorders, depression, etc. need a longer period of treatment, on the one hand, many patients due to this or that problem did not adhere to the follow-up, self-medication, drug dosage is not sufficient, although the treatment time has been longer, but the effect has not reached the effect should be achieved; In addition, some patients are overly worried about drug side effects, although the physician recommended an increase in dosage, but the patient always refused to increase the dosage, resulting in poor treatment results, symptoms. As a result, the treatment effect is poor and the symptoms have not completely disappeared, which still affects the quality of life of patients to varying degrees. Relapses, anxiety disorders, depression, schizophrenia and many other diseases are recurrent or chronically prolonged diseases, which often lead to multiple relapses due to the characteristics of the disease itself or patients stopping medication on their own, and the treatment effect of relapsed patients is often worse than that of the first episode, and it often takes a longer time and dose to achieve the expected effect, and even residual clinical symptoms, which affect the quality of life of patients. One of the reasons why we recommend systematic treatment for first-time patients (about 2 years for first-episode schizophrenia and about 1.5 years for anxiety disorders; of course, the exact time depends on the patient’s response to the medication, and the time it takes for the patient’s symptoms to completely disappear); Personal opinion: people need not be so resistant to Western medicine treatment, listen to the physician’s advice, do not adjust the dose of medication on their own or stop medication on their own, maximize the improvement of patients’ clinical symptoms, improve patients’ quality of life, and make themselves healthier.
