Anxiety Disorders
An anxiety disorder is a mental health condition characterized by persistent, excessive fear or worry that is disproportionate to the actual situation and interferes with daily life. Unlike normal anxiety, which is a temporary response to stress, an anxiety disorder involves ongoing symptoms such as restlessness, rapid heartbeat, difficulty concentrating, and avoidance of certain situations.
Mood Disorders
Mood disorders are mental health conditions that primarily affect a person’s emotional state. They involve prolonged periods of extreme sadness, excessive happiness, or fluctuating moods that disrupt daily life, relationships, and functioning.
Neurodevelopmental Disorders
Neurodevelopmental disorders are a group of conditions that begin in early childhood and affect brain development. These disorders can impact a child’s ability to learn, speak, move, socialize, and manage emotions. Symptoms often appear before school age and may persist into adulthood.
Psychotic Disorders
Psychotic disorders are serious mental health conditions that affect how a person thinks, feels, and perceives reality. Individuals with psychotic disorders may experience delusions (false beliefs), hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that aren’t there), and disorganized thinking or behavior. These symptoms can significantly impact daily life, relationships, and the ability to function.
