Mental health problems are common with around one in four people experiencing them every year. If you are suffering from one of the many conditions, a combination of self-care, treatment and support, that’s right for you, will help you to get better. Many who ‘get back to their old selves’, say they should have asked for help from a specialist in mental health sooner than they did. There are many ways of treating mental health problems based on your diagnosis by a psychiatrist.
Psychiatric Medicines are the most common type of treatment available. They reduce many of the symptoms caused by mental health problems. Antidepressants are mostly prescribed if you have depression but may also be your treatment for conditions such as anxiety, OCD and eating disorders.
Talking Treatments provide a regular session for you to talk about thoughts, experiences and difficult feelings that are affecting your normal emotional wellbeing. This method can be used to develop more positive ways of living day to day, as well as coping with unsettling memories, improving relationships and dealing with a specific problem.

Before you decide on any method or take any medication, make sure you have looked properly at all of the options and advice and that you feel confident and comfortable in your decision.
