Depression Treatment

Depression causes people to feel worthless, hopeless, and filled with emotional pain. Depression can make a person unable to function in many aspects of their life. A very common condition, depression can cause symptoms such as:

Clinicians usually treat depression with a combination of medications and therapy. Depression often comes and goes in major depressive episodes, and during these, symptoms may become more severe and harder to deal with, making the person at risk of relapse during this time. In residential treatment, people with major depressive disorder should also have a therapist checking on them for signs of suicidal thoughts.

Anxiety Treatment

There are several types of anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. People with these disorders have severe worry, distress, and sometimes physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat and dizziness.

Anxiety disorders can make it difficult to function, and some people turn to substances to self-medicate. When treated by a clinician, anxiety disorders may respond well to both medication and therapy.

PTSD Treatment

A strong association exists between a history of trauma and substance abuse. People with PTSD struggle with the aftermath of a traumatic experience and may abuse substances to cope with nightmares, flashbacks, and panic attacks. These experiences disrupt their lives and can cause them pain and anguish.

People may turn to substance abuse when their PTSD becomes too much to cope with, and they need relief from the painful symptoms. In treatment, people with PTSD respond to medication, but they also require intensive therapy to address their trauma. Although some people believe PTSD results from combat experience or a natural disaster, physical or sexual abuse, rape, or other forms of violence can also lead to PTSD

Bipolar Disorder Treatment

People with bipolar disorder experience episodes of depression and episodes of mania (Bipolar I) or hypomania (Bipolar II). Depressive episodes exhibit similar symptoms of major depressive disorder. During a manic episode, individuals may engage in risky behaviors and have an abnormal amount of energy. They may also experience irritability, impatience and may overreact to minor issues.

While people with Bipolar I have manic episodes that can lead to psychotic behavior and hospitalization, people with Bipolar II have episodes of hypomania, which is less intense, although symptoms can be similar. In both types of the disorder, treatment will include a combination of medications and therapy.

Personality Disorders Treatment

Personality disorders can significantly impact a person’s life, but they may not know they struggle with a mental health disorder. Some individuals who struggle with personality disorders may have a history of emotional instability, constant relationship conflict, and self-harming behaviors.

People with personality disorders may turn to substance abuse to self-medicate, sometimes for the disorder itself and sometimes for the problems the disorder has caused. Personality disorders can be challenging to diagnose and treat, but research shows that therapy helps reduce the symptoms of the disorder, making recovery achievable.
