Does Anyone Know Can A Psychiatrist Diagnose Your Depression?

A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭
Merced, CA

Also can a psychiatrist prescribe Chantix for quitting smoking. I quit over 2 years ago and just started smoking again! I need the Chantix to help me again. I started due to Severe Anxiety and Depression. My depression has been Severe also. I'm really hoping this site can help me get through my days. I struggle from when I wake up to when I go to sleep.

If you’re on Medicare or Medicad you can get the patches. Your Psyc more then likely will able to prescribe you WELLBUTRUN. That’s the other drug to help quit.
I quit awhile back but started up after some crap was going on.
I always seem to have some kinda crap
