What is a Psychiatrist?

A Psychiatrist is a Board-Certified Doctor who treats and diagnoses all conditions pertaining to mental health, focusing, among others, on: the detection of mental illnesses, the treatment of learning disabilities, and the management of substance use disorders.

Ultimately, a Healthy Lifestyle and Prevention are the most important steps towards maintaining your mental health:

Important recommendations include:

- stay connected with family and friends
- use relaxation and stress management techniques such as yoga
- avoid excessive consumption of alcohol and drugs
- maintain a physical activity routine such as walking

#Medicinal #Marihuana can be helpful in various medical conditions. Of note, its use may trigger #Schizophrenia and #Psychosis (a detachment from reality) in patients who have a predisposition. Ask your #PCP or #Psychiatrist if medical marihuana is a safe treatment for you.

Substance Use Disorders have been on the rise since Covid, mostly due to the lack of group therapies and meetings from support groups. Contact your #Psychiatrist today to schedule a #telehealth visit and take back control of your life.
