What is psychological disorder

Psychological disorders refer to significant abnormalities or imbalances in an individual's cognitive, emotional, behavioral, or social functions, which may be caused by individual or combined biological, psychological, or social factors and require professional assessment for diagnosis.

1. Cognitive abnormalities

Cognitive abnormalities are characterized by symptoms such as attention deficit, memory loss, or logical confusion, which may be related to brain damage, long-term stress, or neurotransmitter imbalance. Patients may experience decision-making difficulties or a decrease in their ability to verify reality, and require intervention through cognitive-behavioral therapy or neurofeedback training. In severe cases, medication such as olanzapine tablets, donepezil hydrochloride tablets, or sertraline capsules can be used according to medical advice to regulate neurological function.

2. Emotional disorders

Emotional disorders include persistent depression, anxiety, or severe emotional fluctuations, often associated with childhood trauma, stress events, or genetic susceptibility. The typical symptom is a low mood or inexplicable panic attack that lasts for more than two weeks, which can be relieved through mindfulness training and psychological counseling. Doctors may recommend the use of medications such as escitalopram oxalate tablets, paroxetine hydrochloride tablets, or lorazepam tablets as adjunctive therapy.

3. Behavioral Deviation

Behavioral deviation refers to repetitive stereotyped actions, aggressive behavior, or social withdrawal, and is more common in autism spectrum disorder or obsessive-compulsive disorder. This type of abnormality often accompanies executive dysfunction and needs to be improved through behavior correction training combined with environmental adjustments. Clinically, medications such as aripiprazole orally disintegrating tablets, fluvoxamine tablets, or risperidone oral solution may be used to control symptoms.

4. Social adaptation difficulties

Social adaptation difficulties are manifested in interpersonal conflicts, impaired occupational functions, or increased legal disputes, and are commonly seen in patients with personality disorders. This type of situation requires long-term social skills training and group therapy, and if necessary, combined with drugs such as quetiapine sustained-release tablets, sodium valproate sustained-release tablets, or venlafaxine hydrochloride capsules to stabilize emotions.

5. Physiological dysfunction

Physiological dysfunction is characterized by somatic reactions such as insomnia, changes in appetite, or chronic pain, and is often comorbid with anxiety and depression. After excluding organic diseases, relaxation training and biofeedback therapy may be used. Doctors may prescribe drugs such as mirtazapine tablets, zopiclone tablets, or duloxetine enteric coated capsules to regulate physiological rhythms. The daily management of psychological disorders requires establishing a regular schedule and maintaining moderate exercise, such as 30 minutes of aerobic exercise combined with a balanced diet. Family members are advised to participate in the treatment process and avoid excessive criticism of the patient's behavior. When there are thoughts of self harm or continuous deterioration of social function, it is necessary to immediately contact a psychiatrist or psychological crisis intervention institution. Regular follow-up visits can help adjust treatment plans, and some patients require long-term rehabilitation training to restore social function.
