Frequently Asked Questions

Psychiatry is a medical speciality dedicated to the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental illnesses and emotional disorders. Psychiatrists are medical doctors with specialized training in understanding the complex interplay between physical and psychological health.

Psychiatrists treat a broad spectrum of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, eating disorders, and substance use disorders. They also address issues such as grief, stress, and relationship problems.

Individuals should consider consulting a psychiatrist when experiencing persistent changes in mood, behaviour, or cognitive function. This may include feelings of sadness, excessive worry, difficulty concentrating, sleep disturbances, or impaired daily functioning. Psychiatrists can provide diagnostic assessments, medication management, and psychotherapeutic interventions.
 

While both psychiatrists and psychologists work in mental health, the main distinction lies in their training and approach. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can prescribe medications and often use a biological approach to mental health. Psychologists, on the other hand, focus on psychotherapy and behaviour modification without prescribing medication. Collaboration between the two disciplines is common for comprehensive mental health care.

Diagnosis involves thoroughly evaluating a person's mental and physical health history. Psychiatrists use interviews, psychological assessments, and, in some cases, lab tests or imaging studies to determine the presence and nature of mental health conditions.
 

Yes, psychiatrists can provide support for a range of issues beyond clinical mental health conditions. This includes assistance with stress management, coping strategies, and relationship counselling. They offer a holistic mental well-being approach, addressing clinical and non-clinical concerns.
