Am I depressed, anxious or stressed?

Conditions such as depression, anxiety and stress are very common, and there is significant overlap between them. Typically, features of low mood may be present, and these are generally accompanied by a range of other features which often go unrecognised. Sufferers sometimes try to 'push through' these features, which can make the underlying condition even worse, so it's important to recognise the early warning signs and to take appropriate action.

 

Features to look out for:

  • Poor memory or concentration

  • Lack of ability to enjoy activities

  • Feelings of being irritable or 'on a short fuse'

  • Social withdrawal and difficulty interacting with others

  • Broken, disturbed or unrefreshing sleep

  • Poor appetite or lack of enjoyment in food

  • Lack of physical energy

  • Bodily aches, pains, and feelings of muscular tension

  • Thoughts of hopelessness or even suicide


What sort of psychiatric treatment approaches are used?

Dr Ian Drever MB ChB MRCPsych

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is one of the core treatment modalities provided by Drever Associates, and is a solution-focused approach with a large body of evidence to support its efficacy. At the heart of CBT is an exploration of the link between thoughts and feelings. Often, certain thought habits can develop which then create unwelcome feelings, and by uncovering this link, improvements can be made in mood, both in the present and for the future.


CBT is then augmented by a range of other treatment inputs such as Building Self Esteem, Stress Management, Exploratory Psychotherapy, Mindfulness, Assertiveness, Self Awareness, Drama Therapy, Understanding Anger, Relapse Prevention and more.


First steps...

A treatment journey begins with a confidential one-to-one psychiatric assessment. Typically, this will be an hour-long session during which a thorough evaluation will be conducted, followed by a discussion on the diagnosis and presentation of the various treatment options.
