Psychiatrists are specialists in mental health who use various techniques to diagnose, treat, and support individuals with mental illnesses. They can prescribe medications, unlike other mental health professionals who mainly offer talk therapies and support.
If any negative mood state, anxiety, insomnia, appetite change, emotional disturbance, substance dependence, or any other symptom affecting thought, mood, or sleep persists for more than two weeks, you should consult a psychiatrist. Conversely, any symptoms causing acute distress should not be ignored and should be discussed with your doctor.
It’s a myth that psychiatrists prescribe medicines to make patients sleep throughout the day and that these medicines will cause dependence that patients can never overcome. Barring a few exceptions, most psychiatric medications are non-sedative. Irregular treatments, self-modulation of doses, and irregular lifestyles can hamper your treatment. Psychiatric medications taken under the supervision of a psychiatrist are not addictive.
Treatment duration is influenced by various factors, including your diagnosis, the seriousness of your condition, how long you’ve experienced symptoms, any other medical conditions you have, and how consistently you adhere to treatment plans. It’s important not to stigmatize psychiatric illnesses and to actively seek the help you need.

Psychiatrists offer a range of treatment options including pharmacotherapy, psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), as well as other empirically supported therapies. They may also recommend support networks, coping strategies, and lifestyle adjustments. In some cases, treatments such as Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy, biofeedback therapy, and Virtual Reality Therapy might be suggested as well.
