General Men's Groups: Psychiatrists use interviews, psychological testing, and sometimes physical examinations to diagnose mental health conditions.
Medication: Prescribing and monitoring medications to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, or psychosis.
Treatment: They create treatment plans that may include:
Psychotherapy: Providing or referring patients for psychotherapy (talk therapy) to address underlying issues and develop coping mechanisms.
Other interventions: Recommending additional treatments like electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) or transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for severe cases.
Collaboration: They often collaborate with psychologists, therapists, social workers, and other healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive care.
Mental health disorders: Anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), eating disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and many others.
Behavioral disorders: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), disruptive behavior disorders, and substance use disorders.
