Did the neurologist provide any treatment?

No one has provided me any treatment. That's why I didn't think it was a big deal. I just knew it made it harder to "fight off the darkness" of my depression & anxiety disorder, per the neurologist, which has made my life much more difficult, and even estranged me from my only child. Another thing that I think might be unusual [?] is that I think I was still in my 50's when I was diagnosed. I think of it as an "old age" thing [I am 77 yo now], but I think I read that, as an aging symptom, it usually shows up over 60? You see, I honestly don't know much of anything, just bits and pieces about this. Someone said that I should get a new neurologist for my neurological stuff that is outside of the body movement, but in my experience, it is very difficult anymore to find a Dr who cares and will take charge to find something out! 🥲
