The child is still too young to be prescribed medicines. Instead what she needs is counselling. Her parents need to be counselled and adviced to look at her failure in the exam differently. They need to understand that the child has some special quality in her. And am sure as parents they would have noticed or understood about her by now. So ask them to encourage her in that field instead of battling with something she Might not be very comfortable with at the moment. She needs her parents unconditional support and love. They can divert her attention towards what she is good at and she can start involving in it to get back her self esteem. She has all the potential to be what she wants to be. The only thing she needs at the moment is someone to show her just that. And along with this we can look into the physical aspects too as given below.
Anxiety, stress or depression is the result of our current and past lifestyle. Due to imbalanced lifestyle which is not at all in sync with nature our body starts accumulating a lot of toxins. The toxins also result in a toxic blood which in turn nourishes our brains. So when the brain is fed by toxic blood it lacks in proper nourishment. So the undernourished brain is not able to function normally or think clearly. This results in confusion, sadness, helplessness anxiety, depression, or any negative trait. So the cure would be a complete change to a healthy lifestyle. The changes should be such that we live completely in sync with nature. Let’s see what changes you need to make in your routine:
1 Go out in the nature. Get sun exposure every morning and evening. The sun lightens the mood. Nourishes the cells. Enriches the blood. Nourishes the nervous system.
2 Breath in fresh air and practice deep breathing. Learn pranayam. This will nourish the blood with pure oxygen. The deeper the breath the lesser the stress or worry or depression.
3 Spend time in nature. Grow some plants and work with bare hands. The more time one spends with the plants and trees, he or she will start feeling more relaxed and less depressed.
4 Eat lots of fresh locally grown seasonal ripe fruits and vegetables. Break the fast first thing in the morning with seasonal juicy fruits and do it as late in the morning as possible. She may have a simple lunch which consists of more veggies and less of whole grains. Dinner could be finished by 6 pm with either fruits or salads with sprouts and greens. Don’t eat after sunset.
5 Get physically active. Learn and practice yoga. It will help to move the toxins faster and help the body in eliminating and healing. The energy flow gets better through the body.
6 Be relaxed. Accept what ever is as it is and strive to make her self better. Let go of things and people, she can’t change or are of no use to her
7 Declutter at all levels. Her room. Her life. Her gadgets, her body. Etc.
8 Sleep well. Rest well. Relax.
9 Keep an eye on the bowel movements. Eliminate more than she consumes.
10 She will have a liking for something very much or she may have a certain unique talent. Practice giving back to the society in some form or the other. Do something for others that will make a difference in their lives. Whether she gets something in return or not. Just let her do it. Giving away happiness brings it back to us manufold.
These are just basic guidelines. Try to follow them and you will certainly see changes in her self.
Be happy be healthy always

Hello !!!
It's very unfortunate that Psychiatrist prescribe meds rather than encouraging patients to consider taking Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Please advice her to ask the Psychiatrist to taper the drugs slowly...and in the mean time she can take assistance from a Mental health Practitioner for talk therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
She can also use sound therapy to slowly heal from depression. Sound therapy needs to be custom made.
In diet, she can eat lot of sprouts and green vegetables, plant based yogurt, to heal from depression. Kindly ask her to avoid Carbs or refined or processed foods.
She needs to expose herself to the first rays of the sun for Vitamin D. Secondly practicing Mindfulness can help her to program her mind as well....
Regards
First of all she needs a good counselling session with some assistive Yoga sessions ( Meditations and Breathing exercises )
Counselling session would make her come out of the depressive stage and boost up her confidence levels and also make her understand what strategies could she undertake to pass out of the exams with flying colours
An assistive yoga sessions consisting of mediations and pranayamas could be useful
Other mind diversion therapies could also work
Lastly the most important point is that the parents, teachers and society must understand and help her to come out this problem in a more matured and positive way rather than showing a negative opinion towards her.
Hello Akansha, greetings
Psychiatric illnesses are mainly due to a diet deficient in the essential nutrients and more of junk food, including milk and milk products, gluten, processed food, these patients have leaky gut wherein toxins are easily absorbed.
Advice them to avoid the bad stuff and take more of the good stuff, like fresh organic fruits and vegetables, she should have a balance of the omega 3's and omega-6's , encourage to take more omega 3 rich food such as flax, hemp, chia seeds. Walnuts and also blue-green algae.
The gut is the second brain and a lot of neurotransmitters such as serotonin is produced here, so it important to have a healthy gut. Also take a lot of fermented food, such as sauerkraut, kimchi, kvass and so on., to balance and maintain healthy intestinal flora. Advice her to take food rich in the b-complex vitamins, zinc and vitamin c., especially niacin.
Read the books written by psychiatrist Abram Hoffer, who has dealt with thousands of schizophrenics and Depressive patients through a holistic approach.
Tell her what is her goal which is breaking the sackle of life and not to surrender or divert from that
Tell her stories of achiever after so many fails
Let her bloom in unconditional support and love from family
Ask her to forget everything while concentration on her forehead by practicing Tratka let her throw everything thought in hurried manner and be thought less as early she can
Head Sanan pad sanan and light foods with light moods preferably of her choice will calm mind as mind is so, as the abdomen is.
Let her walk bare footed for hrs to transfer calm from South to North
If possible practice of sirsasan will help her
Let her sit on the bank of water and practice Tratka on water by releiving all her anxiety and thought in the lap of water body. One week of this practice is enough to release all tensions and asking for the new path since water is largest and strongest tatwa of the universe moreover it is nutrilizer and observer also. 2ndly mind is made up of more than 90 percent of water.
Let her fast on lemon water to release more serotonin and dopamine.
Parent should regularly pray for her mind peace and success in future. Their live and affection is greater than wholesome.
नमस्ते
प्रतिदिन आप ख़ुद को प्यार दें अपने बारे में 10 अच्छी बातें कोरे काग़ज़ पर लिख कर और प्रकृति को अपने होने का धन्यवाद दें।
मानसिक समस्या भी इसी शरीर की समस्या है सब कुछ इस बात पर निर्भर करता है कि हम किसी भी परिस्थिति में सकारात्मक सोंच रखते हैं या नकारात्मक।
प्राकृतिक जुड़ाव आपको सकारात्मक सोंच प्रदान करेंगी क्योंकि प्राकृतिक जीवन शैली अपने आप में पूर्ण भी है और जीवंत भी है। पाँच तत्व से प्रकृति चल रही है और उसी पाँच तत्व से हमारा शरीर चल रहा है।
1 आकाश तत्व- एक खाने से दूसरे खाने के बीच में विराम दें। रोज़ाना 15 घंटे का उपवास करें जैसे रात का भोजन 7 बजे तक कर लिया और सुबह का नाश्ता 9 बजे लें। वाद्य यंत्र शास्त्री संगीत (instrumental classical music)सुनें।
2 वायु तत्व- लंबा गहरा स्वाँस अंदर भरें और रुकें फिर पूरे तरीक़े से स्वाँस को ख़ाली करें रुकें फिर स्वाँस अंदर भरें ये एक चक्र हुआ। ऐसे 10 चक्र एक टाइम पर करना है। ये दिन में चार बार करें।
अपने कमरे में ख़ुशबू दार फूलों को रखें।
3 अग्Iनि तत्व- सूर्य उदय के एक घंटे बाद या सूर्य अस्त के एक घंटे पहले का धूप शरीर को ज़रूर लगाएँ। सर और आँख को किसी सूती कपड़े से ढक कर। जब भी लेंटे अपना दायाँ भाग ऊपर करके लेटें ताकि आपकी सूर्य नाड़ी सक्रिय रहे।
4 जल तत्व- नहाने के पानी में ख़ुशबू वाले फूलों का रस मिलाएँ। नींबू या पुदीना का रस मिला सकते हैं।
4 पहर 24 घंटे में होता है। 4 पर पहर पर नहाना है। 5 बजे सुबह, 12 बजे दिन में, 5बजे शाम, रात में सोने पहले। जो भी मन में भाव आए उसको लिखें अच्छा हो या ख़राब लिखना जरुरी है। एक घंटे पहले नाभि के ऊपर गीला सूती क पड़ा लपेट कर रखें या खाना के 2 घंटे बाद भी ऐसा कर सकते हैं।
मेरुदंड (स्पाइन) सीधा करके बैठें। हमेशा इस बात ध्यान रखें और हफ़्ते में 3 दिन मेरुदंड का स्नान करें। मेरुदंड स्नान के लिए अगर टब ना हो तो एक मोटा तौलिया गीला कर लें बिना निचोरे उसको बिछा लें और अपने मेरुदंड को उस स्थान पर रखें।
सर पर सूती कपड़ा बाँध कर उसके ऊपर खीरा और मेहंदी या करी पत्ते का पेस्ट लगाएँ,नाभि पर खीरा का पेस्ट लगाएँ।पैरों को 20 मिनट के लिए सादे पानी से भरे किसी बाल्टी या टब में डूबो कर रखें।
5 पृथ्वी- जैसा खाएँगे भोजन वैसा रहेगा मन। इसलिए जीवंत रस और रंग, खुशबुदार भोजन लें।सब्ज़ी, सलाद, फल, मेवे, आपका मुख्य आहार होगा। आप सुबह खीरे का जूस लें, खीरा 1/2 भाग +धनिया पत्ती (10 ग्राम) पीस लें, 100 ml पानी मिला कर पीएँ। 2 घंटे बाद फल नाश्ते में लेना है।
दोपहर में 12 बजे फिर से इसी जूस को लें। इसके एक घंटे बाद खाना खाएँ। शाम को नारियल पानी लें फिर 2 घंटे तक कुछ ना लें। रात के सलाद में हरे पत्तेदार सब्ज़ी को डालें, नारियल की गिरि मिलाएँ।
लाल, हरा, पीला शिमला मिर्च 1/4 हिस्सा हर एक का मिलाएँ। इसे बिना नमक के खाएँ, बहुत फ़ायदा होगा।
जानवरों से उपलब्ध होने वाले भोजन वर्जित हैं।
तेल, मसाला, और गेहूँ से परहेज़ करेंगे तो अच्छा होगा।एक नियम हमेशा याद रखें ठोस(solid) खाने को चबा कर तरल (liquid) बना कर खाएँ। तरल को मुँह में घूँट घूँट पीएँ। खाना ज़मीन पर बैठ कर खाएँ। खाते वक़्त ना तो बात करें और ना ही TV और mobile को देखें।ठोस भोजन के तुरंत बाद या बीच बीच में जूस या पानी ना लें। भोजन हो जाने के एक घंटे बाद तरल पदार्थ ले सकते हैं।
हफ़्ते में एक दिन उपवास करें। शाम तक केवल पानी लें, प्यास लगे तो ही पीएँ। शाम 5 बजे नारियल पानी और रात 8 बजे सलाद लें।
धन्यवाद।
