      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: In this study, patients referred to a psychiatric clinic who meet the inclusion criteria are selected as double random blocks. The epidemiologist sets up a random number table, according to which the codes are assigned by hiding the code card in the thick envelopes (Concealed allocation), one of them to the memantine group with current treatment and the other to the placebo group with current treatment. Randomly assigned. These random double blocks continue until the data collection period is complete, Blinding description: To prevent bias and maintain blindness of the drugs in the intervention group and placebo, the patient prescribing the drug, the evaluator and the statistical consultant do not know the type of drug. Patients are treated up to 16 weeks after the intervention and re-examined at weeks 8 and 16. The psychiatrist who visits the patient and gives the packaged and coded drugs to the patient, the researcher who fills out the questionnaire, the researcher who enters the data into the software, and the epidemiologist who analyzes, the blind people in study.</study_design>
