Dear Drs.
A Person Is Having Frequent Urination Without Any Pathology For The Last 30 Years.he Also Has Irritable Bowel Syndrome And Restless Legs Syndrome And These Too For The Last 30 Y.now He Is 45.the Medicines Help Him Only Temporarily.now Should He See A Psychiatrist.pl. Guide.

What for? Do you think he is schizophrenic, dangerously depressed or has bipolar disorder? Round here, a psychiatrist's job is to prescribe medication for these types of illnesses. Everyone else should steer clear or they'll get put on a trial of medication anyway. If everyone with frequency, IBS or restless leg syndrome went to see a psychiatrist, there would be queues for the clinic tailing into the neighbouring towns. That said, there are lots of other ways of helping these kinds of problems so maybe if you tell a little more about the patient and explain what has already been tried, some of this site's posters might be able to come up with a suggestion or two.

Sometimes you will come across a psychiatrist who is honest and uses psychology to treat people.

The rest resort to drugs of the most unpleasant kind because they cant spare the time to do the job properly.

What medications are you now on, which are no longer doing the job.

There are homeopathic remedies for this condition-- but sadly people only come here as a last resort.

After many years on pharmaceuticals the job will not be easy.

Just to add that I have nothing against psychiatrists - no more than I have (as a vegetarian) against butchers. They are only doing their job. I even have friends who are psychiatrists, just as I have friends who butcher their own animals. It's psychiatry as a branch of medicine that I have a problem with. Treating people's mental distress - an unavoidable part of the human condition - as some disease to be eradicated by altering brain chemistry seems undesirable on many levels.

the best treatment for these conditions, i think, is classical homeopathy, the course of which could last for a number of years. if the patient is unwilling to consider such a commitment, please remind him he's already spent 30 years on methods that have proven unsuccessful, and can easily spend another 30 years with no better results, if he makes the wrong choice.

if he's had homeopathic remedies, were they prescribed along classical lines, or for the specific symptoms, as a specific?
conventional meds can be helpful to stabilized in a crisis, or, if you're lucky, even to help maintain good adjustment over a long period of time, perhaps years. without knowing more i'm guessing, but nevertheless the problems you describe seem to me unlikely to respond favorably to conventional treatments. deep psychoanalysis, also lasting several years, might be beneficial also, but i favor homeopathy, the direct physical action being more predictable in its results, if the prescriptions are accurate.
