What are Psychiatric Diseases?

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: 

In this disorder, there is obsession and repetition of disturbing behaviors. Obsession is used to refer to these obsessive behaviors and compulsion to refer to repetition. The illness can occur as a result of triggering situations. If left untreated, the illness negatively affects the life of the sufferer and their relatives.

Depression:

Depression is one of the most common psychological disorders. Depression is a medical condition that refers to more than the usual state of unhappiness. Symptoms of depression include loss of interest in previously enjoyable activities, increased or decreased appetite, increased or decreased desire to sleep, fatigue, weakness, pessimism and suicidal tendencies. Depression is a treatable illness.

Social Phobia: 

Social phobia is a psychological disorder that cannot be reduced to shyness. The anxiety of not being liked and approved in the communities where the person lives is very high. For this reason, they may stop being sociable over time and close themselves to public speaking and other social exchanges. It can be treated with medication and psychotherapy methods.

Panic Disorder: 

Panic disorder usually occurs when some situations that have happened before are remembered due to triggering factors. The person may suddenly experience very severe anxiety. During these anxiety attacks, the patient may experience palpitations and shortness of breath, and disorders in the digestive system may be observed.

Bipolar Disorder: 

This disease is called bipolar disorder because of its bipolar mood swings. During the attack periods of the disease, the patient may experience manic or depressive episodes. In other words, the patient can quickly switch from very cheerful, euphoric moods (manic period) to depressed and exhausted moods (depressive period). The episodes can negatively affect both the patient and his/her environment. Bipolar disorder is a psychiatric illness, not an unstable mood, and is treatable.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity (ADHD):

This disorder is often diagnosed in childhood, but not only in children. The patient may have difficulty maintaining formal relationships due to symptoms such as difficulty focusing, learning difficulties, and being bored easily. It is difficult to control one's impulsive behavior in this disorder.

Anxiety Disorder (Anxiety Disorder): 

Anxiety is an increasingly common medical health condition. Anxiety can cause clinical states of worry, panic, restlessness, anxiety and nervousness. The illness may attack, especially when making decisions or when faced with unexpected situations. Anxiety can disrupt sleep patterns, reduce the quality of daily life and prevent socialization.

Addictions: 

This refers to cravings for substances that negatively affect a person's emotions, thoughts and general health. In addictions, even if the person recognizes the harmful effects of the substance they are addicted to, they may not be able to get away from the substance due to withdrawal. The treatment of addictions is multifaceted. Psychological support should also be sought after addiction treatment.

Sexual Dysfunctions: 

Sexual dysfunctions refer to vaginismus, premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction caused by various reasons. Physiological and psychiatric treatment of such disorders is carried out in cooperation.

Schizophrenia: 

In this disease, there are conflicts between the person's delusions and the reality experienced. Due to this conflict between experienced reality and perceived reality, the patient may not be able to control their emotions. Schizophrenia is a disease that negatively affects the lives of patients and their relatives. The treatment of the disease is determined by the physician according to the stage of the disease.

Eating Disorders: 

Patients with eating disorders have had their relationship with their bodies damaged for certain reasons. Especially traumas can cause this type of eating disorder. In bulimia neurosis, patients eat with a conscious guilt and then vomit what they have eaten. In anorexia neurosis, patients eat too few calories to meet their daily needs. In addition to these, binge eating, which is eating with guilt, is also considered an eating disorder.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder:

As a result of a certain trauma, psychological and physiological health may deteriorate when people cannot forget these memories. As a result of sexual assaults, torture and accidents, a person's sleep patterns may be disrupted, nightmares, anxiety and depression may be observed.

Grief Period Problems: 

Similar to post-traumatic stress disorder, a person may not be able to control the grief of someone they have lost. The person feels intense sadness and may become unhappy and aggressive due to the pain. The grief process can be experienced differently in each person and can be evaluated clinically depending on the duration of grief and its effects on the person's life.

The treatment of psychiatric illnesses aims to control conditions that reduce the quality of life of patients and their relatives. While some illnesses and their symptoms are temporary, others may be chronic illnesses that recur periodically.
