When Should You See a Psychiatrist| Al-Hayat Center for Mental Health

Mental health is a fundamental part of overall well-being, not a luxury or optional concern. At Al-Hayat Center for Psychiatry and Addiction Treatment, we believe that caring for mental health is just as important as physical health. But when is the right time to visit a psychiatrist?

Signs You Should Not Ignore

• Persistent Sadness or Depression: If you feel down most of the time and lose interest in things you once enjoyed, it may be more than just a passing phase.

• Anxiety and Panic Attacks: Excessive worry, physical symptoms such as rapid heartbeat or breathing difficulties may be signs of anxiety disorders.

• Changes in Sleep or Appetite: Unexplained insomnia or excessive sleep, as well as sudden weight loss or gain, can indicate a mental health issue.

• Social Withdrawal: If you avoid friends and family and isolate yourself, it may be time to seek professional help.

• Addiction and Behavioral Changes: Relying on substances, compulsive behaviors, or emotional instability are serious warning signs.

• Trauma or Loss: After trauma, divorce, or bereavement, some people need support to cope and return to emotional stability.
