Part of the difficulty in addressing issues of\u00a0Depression and Anxiety Disorders<\/strong>, is the present psychiatric diagnostic system. While depression and anxiety disorder symptoms are described with extreme specificity in an understandable attempt to generate consistency within a diagnosis, the result may not highly correlate to a specific person.<\/p>\n In reality, most people can naturally experience depression and anxiety at difficult or traumatic times in their lives, but what does it\u00a0really<\/em>\u00a0mean when one person experiences depression or anxiety more often than someone else?<\/p>\n Even medications prescribed for depression can have more uses than we may think. Anti-depressants, for instance, particularly those focusing on the production or control of serotonin within the body’s complex system, seem to have powerful anti-anxiety and anti-obsessional properties and can be used to treat\u00a0Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)<\/a>\u00a0and anxiety disorders.<\/p>\n The resolution and treatment of depression and anxiety in young adults, many of whom are still going through later stages of adolescence, is really dependent upon the understanding of that specific individual, their family and their unique circumstances.<\/p>\n Of course, stability might be achieved through pharmacology (prescribed medications). However, when combined with a comprehensive psychiatric, psychological, psycho- educational and psycho-social approach, there is a higher probability of finding and building upon an individual’s assets and strengths, reinforcing their ability to systematically and skillfully tackle areas where they need support and remediation.<\/p>\n All of us grow a step at a time and persevere by learning to extend tolerance, patience and compassion toward ourselves as well as others.
