Mental Health and Substance Abuse have been associated with stigma and discomfort when it comes to acknowledgment and treatment. It is not easy to accept that you have a mental illness or substance abuse problem, but it is much more difficult to manage psychiatric or addiction symptoms on your own.

​

       Many individuals tried to hide their symptoms of depression, anxiety, mood instability, psychosis, attention/concentration problems, and substance abuse for many years by struggling with daily activities, compromising their personal and professional lives, and just unintentionally depriving themselves of normal lives because of the stigma. In our clinic, we are in tune with the sensibility of this subject, and that’s why we are trying to minimize the discomfort and uneasiness of seeking psychiatric care or help with addiction.

         

           In other cases, individuals have been prescribed different psychotropic medications for their diagnosed psychiatric or substance abuse condition, but they experience no relief, or their condition has gotten worse. The disappointment with past treatment may prevent people from seeing psychiatric treatment again, or they may turn to substance abuse for self-medication. Unfortunately, throughout the years we have seen many cases of misdiagnosis and inappropriate prescription of psychotropic medications which not only turn people away from getting help but cause exacerbation of their conditions with significant negative effects on their daily lives.
