Starting Psychiatry/medication

Need more help deciding?

Some individuals don’t believe their issues are severe enough to warrant a psychiatrist’s attention in the first place. However, if mental health concerns are interfering with your relationships and your happiness, it’s a good idea to address them. Mental and emotional disorders can cause uncomfortable symptoms and rob you of many of life’s small joys, leaving you feeling generally dissatisfied or unhappy.

If you’re struggling with a mental illness like anxiety or depression, it can be hard to know the best next step to take. The psychiatric nurse practitioners at Thriveworks Counseling in Chicago, IL are standing by to help you feel like your normal self again.

When Should I Consider Consulting with a Psychiatrist?

The word “psychiatrist” is one many people find intimidating. Perhaps the first thing they think of is a movie or TV show character who needed help with a severe disorder. While psychiatric providers do help many forms of extreme mental disorders, this isn’t their only function. Psychiatry deals with a broad spectrum of mental illnesses, including issues such as anxiety and depression.

It’s important to realize that mental illnesses can affect anyone. There are many symptoms that may lead you to visit a psychiatrist. These are just a few examples:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
  • Personality disorders
  • Insomnia
  • Eating disorders
  • PTSD and trauma
  • Suicidal thoughts or self-harm
  • Substance abuse or addiction

Psychological problems don’t have to control your life. If you’re struggling and in need of compassionate guidance and support, consider scheduling a virtual visit with one of our psychiatric nurse practitioners in Chicago, IL.
