What Mental Illnesses Can Benefit from Medication?
As we said earlier, some people find the help that they’re looking for in therapy, while others find relief in medication. And, of course, some find that a combination of the two is the key to managing their illness. On that note, there are many different mental health conditions that can be relieved or managed with medication, including:
- Major and minor depression
- Panic disorder
- Anxiety
- Postpartum depression
- Bipolar disorder
- Seasonal affective disorder
