Therapy and medication are the most effective treatments for ADHD.
OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DISORDER
(OCD) is a brain-based disorder. People with OCD have obsessions or compulsions, or both. Obsessions are unwanted and distressing thoughts, ideas, or urges that keep entering your mind. Compulsions are repetitive physical or mental acts that you feel you have to do. They may reduce or prevent any anxiety, but in most cases, they do not help. Compulsions can take a lot of time to do, often more than one hour each day. They can interfere with personal relationships and normal activities at home, school, or work.
PTSD
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) may develop after experiencing or witnessing an upsetting event (trauma). Types of trauma that can lead to PTSD include accidents, physical injuries, any kind of abuse, violence, or natural disasters. PTSD can occur shortly after a traumatic event or may happen weeks later. Symptoms includes flashbacks, nightmares, unwanted thoughts and memories about the event, heightened reactions, anxiety, and avoidance of situations that may trigger memories of the event. PTSD can cause significant distress and affect an individual’s daily functioning.

In manic phases, individuals may experience elevated mood and increased energy, while depressive phases involve deep sadness and low energy. Treatment typically involves a combination of medication, therapy, and lifestyle adjustments for long-term management. Seeking professional guidance is crucial for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
POSTPARTUM DEPRESSION
Postpartum depression (PDD) is depression that occurs the first few weeks after having a baby but can occur at any time during the first year after delivery. Women with postpartum depression can have feelings of sadness, anger, irritability, crying more often than usual, feeling disconnected from the baby, and doubting their ability to care for themselves and their baby, and thoughts of hurting themselves or the baby.
PSYCHOTIC DISORDERS
Psychotic disorders involve a detachment from reality, with symptoms like hallucinations and delusions. Conditions such as schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder fall under this category. Treatment typically includes antipsychotic medications and therapy to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. Early intervention is crucial for effective care.
SUBSTANCE ABUSE DISORDER
Substance use disorder is a condition characterized by problematic use of substances, leading to impaired functioning and distress. It encompasses a range of substances, including alcohol and drugs. Individuals with substance use disorder may struggle with controlling their use, experience cravings, and continue use despite negative consequences. Treatment involves therapy, counseling, and sometimes medication to support recovery and address underlying issues. Early intervention is key to successful management.
INSOMNIA
Insomnia, a sleep disorder characterized by difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep, often stems from factors like stress, poor sleep habits, irregular sleep schedules, certain medications, and mental health issues such as depression and anxiety. Effectively addressing anxiety and depression can often lead to the resolution of insomnia. However, for those in need of immediate relief, sleep aids can offer a helpful solution.
