mental-health CCC depression CCC diagnosis ** ** ## How is depression diagnosed? Our doctors need to understand how depression is affecting you before they can recommend effective treatment. Speak to a doctor today. You can have a private, confidential discussion from the comfort of your own home, workplace or on the go, at a time that suits you. ** ** ## How our doctors diagnose your depression? Before you speak to our doctors, it’s worth completing the [standard self-assessment questionnaire](http://nhs.uk/tools/), which will let you know if you’re showing signs of depression.     However, this is only a guide. Regardless of its results, if you’re feeling depressed, our doctors will listen to you and offer support. They’ll go through a questionnaire with you to understand the severity of your symptoms and the impact they’re having on your life. These questions aren’t trying to catch you out, so it’s important you’re honest. The doctor needs to get an accurate picture of your depression. They may ask: - How long you’ve been experiencing your symptoms - Whether you have a family history of depression - Whether you’ve stopped enjoying things you used to enjoy - How you’re sleeping - What you’re eating - Whether you’ve been feeling low on energy - Whether you’ve had trouble concentrating - How much alcohol you’re drinking - Whether you’ve recently used drugs - If you’ve lost weight unexpectedly - If you’ve had thoughts of suicide or self-harm While these questions may not be easy to answer and you might feel self-conscious, your answers will remain completely confidential. The only time our doctors could break this confidence is if they have reason to believe you might harm yourself or others. They will need to get you the help that you need in these circumstances. Depression can be caused by a totally different condition, such as an underactive thyroid, so the doctor may want to rule that out by referring your for tests. ** ** ## What happens next? Based on your answers and previous medical history, your doctor can recommend the most appropriate treatment or combination of treatments that may be of benefit to you. If you are happy with the treatment plan, they can issue you with a prescription straight away. They will then suggest a follow-up appointment in a week or two. This is to make sure you’re not having any side effects from the medications and that your mood is at least stable, if not improving. They may decide to wait until the results of any tests are available before prescribing any new medication, if they think something else may be the cause of the way you are feeling. Find out more about how [depression is treated](https://www.pushdoctor.co.uk/what-we-treat/mental-health/depression/treatment). ** ** ## How long does it take to diagnose depression? Because everyone’s experience of depression is different, it’s difficult to say exactly how long it will take to treat. Our doctors will provide help and support for as long as you need it, to ensure you can beat depression. Your doctor will recommend a course of treatment and then arrange a follow-up consultation in 1-2 weeks time to see if this has had any effect on your mental health. ### **NHS - trained and registered doctors Every one of our doctors is registered with the General Medical Council and can be found on the NHS National Performers List, so you know you are only ever receiving the best possible care and advice. They are experienced in treating a wide range of conditions, and can help with almost everything your regular GP could in a physical surgery. You can meet some of our doctors [here](https://www.pushdoctor.co.uk/meet-our-doctors). Push Doctor also has an in-house Medical team, who support our doctors day in, day out, and enable our doctors to do what they do best. They are also responsible for the ongoing training and development of doctors on our platform. ![close button](https://www.pushdoctor.co.uk/hubfs/SVGs/close-black.svg) ### **CQC regulated The [Care Quality Commission (CQC)](https://www.cqc.org.uk/) is the independent regulator of health and social care in England. They are the foremost authority in our industry, assessing health providers' ability to provide people with safe, effective, compassionate and high-quality care – be they offline or online doctors. Push Doctor is registered with the CQC under the name 'Push Dr Limited', with the registration number [1-5345986073](https://www.cqc.org.uk/location/1-5345986073). Our most recent inspection took place in May 2019, concluding that the service we provide is safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led – gaining a 'Good' rating overall. You can read the report in full on [our CQC profile](https://www.cqc.org.uk/location/1-5345986073). ![close button](https://www.pushdoctor.co.uk/hubfs/SVGs/close-black.svg) ### **Same day prescriptions Our NHS-trained GPs can, if appropriate, issue prescriptions online following a consultation. Once your consultation is complete, our team will search for the closest pharmacy to you which has your medication available. We'll then send you a text when your prescription is ready to collect. To collect your medication, simply hear to the nominated pharmacy to collect and pay for your prescription. You will need to take a valid form of ID to show the pharmacist when you arrive. This process is almost always done within the same day of your consultation. ![close button](https://www.pushdoctor.co.uk/hubfs/SVGs/close-black.svg) ### **Instant fit (sick) notes Our GPs can send a sick/fit note directly to you if necessary following an online consultation. These can be sent directly by email or first-class post. Fit notes include recommendations about how and when you'll be able to return to work or education, or whether you're able to return to work with amended duties (e.g no heavy lifting or reduced hours). They can also contain detailed advice about managing your medical issue in the workplace. ![close button](https://www.pushdoctor.co.uk/hubfs/SVGs/close-black.svg) ```json { "@context" : "http://schema.org", "@type" : "WebPage", "description" : "Find out what to expect from a Push Doctor consultation, including the questions you’ll be asked and how the doctor will reach a depression diagnosis.", "name" : "Diagnosis of depression & what happens next? | Push Doctor", "publisher" : { "@type" : "Corporation", "name" : "Push Doctor" } } ```
