Psychiatric disorders refer to various health conditions that affect the thoughts, behaviour and mood of a person. Clinically, these disorders can be characterised by disturbances in behaviour, emotional regulation and cognition. These are related with impairment and distress in significant areas of functioning. There are varieties of psychiatric disorders, but they can be categorised into dementia-related disorders, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, psychotic disorders and personality disorders. These disorders significantly impact the capability of a person to maintain social relations at school or work. Assessment of psychiatric disorders can be done through a mental status examination, in which behaviour, appearance, circumstances of current life, mental health history and other symptoms are evaluated. Psychiatric disorders can be treated and treatment differs from person to person. Treatment depends on the type of disorder, severity and scope of the symptoms. Certain people experience relief with a single treatment, while other may have to try combinations of treatments. The most effective treatment of psychiatric disorders generally involves a combination of psychotherapy, medication and adopting healthy lifestyle. This book provides comprehensive insights on psychiatric disorders. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.
