Medication Management Q & A

What is medication management?

Medication management with Diana at My Wellness Psychiatry consists of the medical supervision of medicines you take to eliminate bothersome symptoms of common mental health conditions, such as:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
  • Attention-deficit disorder (ADD)
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
  • Substance use disorder
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

You may also receive medication management for other mental health challenges or conditions like insomnia.

The medicines can ease any anxiety or sad feelings and improve your quality of life. 

What are the symptoms of mental health conditions?

Some of the common symptoms of mental health challenges include:

  • Fear
  • Worry
  • Anxious feelings
  • Mood swings
  • Ongoing sadness
  • Weight loss or weight gain
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Loss of interest in favorite activities
  • Withdrawal from family and friends
  • Difficulty concentrating or sitting still
  • Obsessions or compulsions
  • Flashbacks
  • Nightmares

Medications can reduce or eliminate these and other bothersome symptoms of a mental health disorder.

What are the possible causes of mental health disorders?

Much of the time, the cause of mental health conditions isn’t clear. They might stem from having certain personality traits, a family history of mental health disorders, past trauma, or ongoing stress. Regardless of the cause, Diana helps you make the necessary changes to help you feel better and thrive at work and in relationships.

Is medication management right for me?

My Wellness Psychiatry offers GeneSight® genetic testing to determine which medicines are likely the best fit for your genetic makeup. Diana also reviews your medical history, symptoms, current medication regimen, and lifestyle habits. She asks questions about your mood, thoughts, and behavior habits before tailoring your medication management treatment.

What should I expect during medication management?

During medication management for a mental health condition, it’s important to take your medicines exactly as directed by Diana and report any side effects to her. She follows up with you periodically to make sure your treatment is effective. 

In addition to medication management, My Wellness Psychiatry offers psychotherapy and lifestyle-change counseling. Diana offers advice about ways to maximize your diet, exercise, and sleeping patterns, as well as minimize stress.
