Moreover, it is also important to visit a psychiatrist in Saddar, Karachi when your mental health is lagging, and you feel overwhelmed by anxiety or stress (پریشانی و گبھراہٹ).

If you experience any of the symptoms of depression, consulting the best psychiatrist in Saddar, Karachi can be very helpful if not life changing.
A morphed thinking process is also a cause for alarm. Mental health causes people to think negatively of themselves and others, incoherence and lack of focus in the thoughts, and most alarming are the suicidal thoughts. Some patients might also think of hurting others instead.
Mental problems also have physical symptoms. Having too much or too little of energy, getting too little or too much sleep and extreme eating habits are common in patients with mental health problems.

کسی نفسیاتی ماہر کو دیکھنا ضروری ہے جب آپ یا آپ کے بنیادی نگہداشت کے ڈاکٹر کو شبہ ہو کہ آپ کسی طرح کی ذہنی پریشانی کا سامنا کررہے ہیں۔ پہلے سے ہی ذہنی عارضے کی تشخیص کرنے والے افراد کو نفسیاتی ماہر سے باقاعدگی سے دیکھنے کی ضرورت ہوتی ہے ، خاص طور پر ایسے معاملات میں جب علامات زیادہ شدید ہوتے جارہے ہوں
مزید یہ کہ جب آپ کی ذہنی صحت ناقص ہوتی ، اور آپ پریشانی یا تناؤ سے دوچار ہوجاتے ہیں (پریشانی اور گبھراہٹ) ہے تو آپ کا کسی نفسیاتی ماہر سے ملنا بھی ضروری ہے ۔ ہمیشہ افسردگی اور ناامیدی کا شدید احساس افسردگی کی ایک عام علامت ہے اور یہ تشویش کا باعث ہے۔ اگر آپ کو ذہنی دباؤ کی علامات میں سے کسی کا سامنا کرنا پڑتا ہے تو ،اگرچہ اس سے زندگی کو نہیں بدلا جا سکتا مگر نفسیاتی ماہر کو دیکھ کر بہت مدد مل سکتی ہے
تخیلاتی طور پر سوچنے کا عمل بھی خطرے کی گھنٹی ہے۔ ذہنی صحت لوگوں کو اپنے اور دوسروں کے بارے میں منفی سوچنے کا باعث بنتی ہے ، خیالات میں مطابقت اور توجہ کا فقدان ، اور سب سے زیادہ تشویش ناک خودکشی کے خیالات ہیں۔ کچھ مریض اس کے بجائے دوسروں کو تکلیف دینے کے بارے میں بھی سوچ سکتے ہیں
ذہنی پریشانیوں میں جسمانی علامات بھی ہوتی ہیں۔ دماغی صحت سے متعلق مسائل میں مبتلا مریضوں میں بہت زیادہ یا بہت کم توانائی ، بہت کم یا بہت زیادہ نیند لینا اور کھانے کی انتہائی عادات عام ہیں۔ غصے کے انتظام (غصہ پر کنٹرول) کے معاملات میں مبتلا افراد کو بھی ذہنی صحت کے ماہر سے مداخلت کی ضرورت ہے
اسی طرح ، کچھ لوگوں کی کارکردگی میں اضطراب ہوتا ہے جو ان کے ازدواجی تعلقات میں مداخلت کرتا ہے ، جس سے جنسی بے راہ روی پیدا ہوتی ہے۔ تربیت یافتہ ذہنی صحت کے ماہر کے ذریعہ اس کا مناسب اور محفوظ طریقے سے علاج کیا جاسکتا ہے
جن بچوں کو آٹزم، اے ڈی اچ ڈی، اور دیگر دانشورانہ مسائل جیسے مسائل ہیں ان کو بھی عمر بھر زندہ رہنے سے قبل ذہنی صحت کے ماہر کے ذریعہ علاج کروانے کی ضرورت ہے۔ بہت سارے نفسیات دان خصوصی طور پر چھوٹے بچوں سے نمٹنے کے لئے بھی تربیت یافتہ ہیں اور وہ ذہنی بیماری یا سنگین صدمے میں مبتلا بچوں کا مؤثر طریقے سے علاج کر سکتے ہیں۔
نئی ماؤں کو نفسیاتی ماہر سے بھی ملنے کی ضرورت پڑسکتی ہے اگر وہ نفلی ڈپریشن میں مبتلا ہیں۔ ہارمون کی بدلتی سطح ، زچگی کی وجہ سے آنے والی تبدیلیاں اور زچگی کی ذمہ داریاں ماؤں کو مغلوب کرسکتی ہیں۔ اگر وہ افسردہ محسوس کرتے ہیں ،بار بار موڈ کےبدلنے میں مبتلا ہیں ، بچے سے رابطہ قائم کرنے سے قاصر ہیں ، نیند اور غذائی عادات میں ردوبدل کر رہے ہیں ، 2 ہفتوں سے زیادہ وقت تک رونے اور ناامید محسوس کرتے ہیں ، تو انہیں ذہنی صحت کے ماہر کی مدد کی ضرورت ہے

Psychiatrists (ماہرامراض نفسیات) are responsible for helping patients manage their mental health and understand its impact on their body. Unlike psychologists, they can prescribe drugs to fix any chemical imbalances in the brain.
Commonly used psychiatric medication includes antidepressants, antipsychotics, stimulants, sedatives, mood stabilizers etc.
Since these drugs have an impact on the patient’s overall health, psychiatrists (ماہر نفسیات ) ensure that they don’t have any contraindications for the patients and are safe to take. The prescription process can sometimes be hit and trial as the doctor does not know which drug and dosage the patient will respond well to.
Psychiatrists also perform different therapies on the patients. For example, those who suffer from seasonal depression are often treated using light therapy, a form of psychiatric treatment.
Electroconvulsive therapy is reserved for patients suffering extreme depression that does not respond to other treatments. It involves giving electrical current to the brain. On the other hand, another treatment technique, psychotherapy, entails talking to the patients, similar to counselling.
