Common mental health conditions
Bipolar disorder
Bipolar disorder symptoms include extreme mood swings that range from manic highs to dark depression. These unpredictable swings are disruptive and can impact your ability to cope, think clearly and make decisions. Disruptive sleep patterns, changing energy levels and feelings of despair make daily routines difficult.
The mental health experts at Novant Health can help you control your symptoms so you can lead a productive life. Your individualized treatment plan may include medication and psychotherapy.
Major depression
If you or a loved one suffers from major depression, it's essential to seek help. Common symptoms include a feeling of hopelessness, irritability, lethargy, anxiety, loss of interest in everyday activities and thoughts of self-harm.
Antidepressant medications and cognitive or interpersonal therapy are often effective treatments for major depression disorders. A Novant Health mental health therapist can help you learn tactics to improve your outlook.
Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a serious psychiatric condition that requires ongoing treatment. Symptoms of schizophrenia range from the inability to concentrate or express positive emotions to hallucinations or delusions that distort reality.
Our mental health specialists can work with you or your loved one to make an assessment and offer individualized treatment. You will likely receive a combination of medications and therapy.
Anxiety
Anxiety disorders can cause intense fear, panic attacks and physical symptoms like rapid heart rate, sweating and difficulty sleeping. You also may experience anxiety from phobias, social isolation, substance abuse or psychiatric conditions.
Your mental health provider at Novant Health may incorporate relaxation techniques, dietary changes, exercise, medication and therapy.
Substance use disorder
Substance use disorder can affect mental, physical and emotional well-being, and recovery is possible with the right support. At Novant Health, our compassionate specialists provide individualized, recovery-oriented care through intensive outpatient, group and medication-assisted programs to help you heal and regain balance.
