Spring is here, and with it comes a sense of growth, refreshment, and new opportunities. There are longer days, blooming flowers, and a fresh energy in the air. But just because the season is changing doesn’t mean your mental health automatically flips a switch.
A mental health evaluation is a comprehensive assessment conducted by a licensed mental health professional to determine an individual’s psychological well-being. This evaluation includes various tests, interviews, and observations to diagnose conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and other mental health disorders.
At Peak Wellness, we understand that seasonal depression can significantly impact mental well-being during the winter months. While many experience the joy of the holiday season, individuals struggling with seasonal affective disorder may encounter increased feelings of sadness, isolation, and low energy.
Self-love is often overlooked, but it’s crucial for maintaining physical and mental health. Recognizing this need, Self Love Month in January serves as an annual reminder to prioritize our own needs and engage in activities that nourish our minds, bodies, and souls.
Oh boy. The Holiday season hits after a long and (hopefully) fruitful work year. You’re surrounded by friends, family, pets, good food, and great music.
New Year’s resolutions aren’t only about hitting the gym, saving more money, or traveling to new and exotic locations. Your mental health should also be the focus of any resolutions you may make.
Acute stress disorder (ASD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are both mental health conditions triggered by traumatic experiences, but they differ in how and when they show up. ASD typically begins within a few days of the event and lasts less than a month, while PTSD can develop if symptoms persist for more than a month and may last for years if untreated.
Anxiety is something nearly everyone experiences from time to time. Whether it’s before a big presentation, during a stressful workday, or as a reaction to personal challenges, feelings of unease and worry are natural. However, when anxiety becomes chronic or overwhelming, it can significantly impact one’s mental and physical well-being.
Anxiety can significantly impact many aspects of daily life, including appetite. While some people may overeat during periods of stress, others experience a marked decrease in appetite, often finding it difficult to eat even their favorite meals. This phenomenon is more than just a lack of hunger; it’s a physical and psychological response to anxiety that affects the body’s digestive system and overall health.
In today’s fast-paced world, mental health has become an increasingly important topic of discussion, particularly in the workplace. Many individuals find themselves struggling under the pressure of their jobs.
