Taking A Psychodynamic Approach To Medicine Prescriptions For Mental Health
By: novum psychiatry
Psychodynamic was founded in the early 1900s by Sigmund Freud and it puts focus on the subconscious part of our minds, in the belief that this will help us identify patterns and behaviors more clearly.
The practice has not been used as much in recent decades with many theorists and psychiatrists favoring more modern approaches to therapy. That being said, there is an ever-growing discussion about whether taking a psychodynamic approach to medicine prescriptions could be effective, especially for patients who have had long term mental health struggles.(read

Combating stigma against mental health is a challenge for many. In the city of Framingham, many people do not seek regular therapy. Even with many people feeling better with counseling, the stigma over mental health continues to be a burden for Framingham locals. Data on health risks collected in 2016 by the Behavior Risk Factor Surveillance System through telephone surveys revealed that around 3% of the adults in Framingham reported feeling depressed, sad, or blue for more than 15 days at a time. Moreover, about 6.5% reported having poor mental health, which was 0.5% more than what was reported throughout MetroWest.
Statistics on Framingham adolescents showed that 23% felt sad and helpless, which was 6% more than what was reported in MetroWest, and 4% of the adolescents said they had attempted suicide. The level of mental health awareness in the area is very low, and the mental health facilities that do exist do not have enough professionals to staff them.(read

There is a considerable stigma attached to mental health problems. People suffering from mental health issues face many challenges in their personal and work life.
Steps have been taken to combat the stigma attached to mental health, but it is a prolonged process. The task of spreading awareness has been even slower in Marlborough, as residents do not usually seek regular therapy.
As Dick Moore, an English teacher with a passionate interest in adolescent development and emotional wellbeing, said, “everyone is vulnerable to mental health problems. The only thing weak about being vulnerable is not asking for help.”
According to research, the number of people with mental health problems has not increased, but the way we live these days has made it much more difficult to cope. A survey carried out in 2016 revealed that 6% of the total population in Metro West reported having poor mental health.(read

Natick Psychiatrist
Submitted as: Novum Psychiatry Natick
Life can be a struggle when you have poor mental health. In extreme cases, even routine activities like sleeping through the night are a challenge. All of life's pressure can start to feel overwhelming to handle on your own, and your emotions can start to swing from one end to the other.
A significant stigma has been attached to mental health problems throughout the years. Many of us could be facing challenges in our work-life balance to the extent that it is starting to affect our personal life and relationships.
In Natick, 7.5% of the residents in adults reported poor mental health for 15 days at a time or more. In the MetroWest region, 6.2% of all adults reported poor mental health[1].
A focus group participant in a recent survey of mental health said: “The community needs an understanding of mental health issues and how to take care of themselves.” This clearly shows that there is a lack of awareness for mental health in Natick and the greater MetroWest area.(read
