Treatment for Psychotic Disorders A Psychotic disorder can be a lifelong mental health condition that causes distress for both the person affected by the disorder and their loved ones. Fortunately, when treatment is provided in a coordinated and timely manner, people with a psychotic disorder can go to school, maintain jobs, and regain independence. The team at Solrei Behavioral Health offers comprehensive care for patients and families affected by schizophrenia. Contact the practice in Orlando, Florida, by phone to set up a consultation or book online. 407-638-8903 Request Appointment What is a psychotic disorder? Psychotic disorders are severe mental disorders that cause abnormal thinking and perceptions. People with psychoses lose touch with reality. Two of the main symptoms are delusions and hallucinations. Delusions are false beliefs, such as thinking that someone is plotting against you or that the TV is sending you secret messages. Hallucinations are false perceptions, such as hearing, seeing, or feeling something that is not there. Schizophrenia is one type of psychotic disorder. People with bipolar disorder may also have psychotic symptoms. Other problems that can cause psychosis include alcohol and some drugs, brain tumors, brain infections, and stroke. According to National Institute of Mental Health , precise prevalence estimates of schizophrenia are difficult to obtain due to clinical and methodological factors such as the complexity of schizophrenia diagnosis, its overlap with other disorders, and varying methods for determining diagnoses. Given these complexities, schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders are often combined in prevalence estimation studies. A summary of currently available data is presented here. Across studies that use household-based survey samples, clinical diagnostic interviews, and medical records, estimates of the prevalence of schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders in the U.S. range between 0.25% and 0.64%.3,4,5 Estimates of the international prevalence of schizophrenia among non-institutionalized persons is 0.33% to 0.75%.6,7 https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/statistics/schizophrenia ​ Symptoms may include: ​ Delusions — having false, fixed beliefs, despite evidence to the contrary Hallucinations, such as hearing voices or seeing things that aren't there Impaired communication and speech, such as being incoherent Bizarre or unusual behavior Symptoms of depression, such as feeling empty, sad or worthless Periods of manic mood, with an increase in energy and a decreased need for sleep over several days, and behaviors that are out of character Impaired occupational, academic and social functioning Problems with managing personal care, including cleanliness and physical appearance What are some causes of a psychotic disorder? Psychosis is a symptom of psychotic disorder. There is no one cause of psychosis. Psychosis appears to result from a complex combination of genetic risk, differences in brain development, and exposure to stressors or trauma. Psychosis may be a symptom of a mental illness, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or severe depression. However, a person can experience psychosis and never be diagnosed with schizophrenia or any other disorder. For older adults, psychosis symptoms can be part of a physical or mental illness that emerges later in life. Psychosis can also be a symptom of some diseases of older age, including Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and related dementias. Other possible causes of psychosis include sleep deprivation, certain prescription medications, and the misuse of alcohol or drugs. A mental illness, such as schizophrenia, is typically diagnosed by excluding these other causes. ​ Risk factors may include: Having a close blood relative — such as a parent or sibling — who has schizoaffective disorder, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder Stressful events that may trigger symptoms Taking mind-altering drugs, which may worsen symptoms when an underlying disorder is present How do you treat a psychotic disorder? Antipsychotic medicines, also known as neuroleptics, are usually recommended as the first treatment for psychosis. They work by blocking the effect of dopamine, a chemical that transmits messages in the brain. However, they're not suitable or effective for everyone, as side effects can affect people differently.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a serious mental health condition that can have long-term effects. It can affect anyone who has experienced or witnessed a traumatic event, and its effects can be pervasive in a person's life. Thankfully, there are many effective treatments for PTSD that can help individuals reclaim their lives and move forwards on the path to recovery. According to National Institute of Mental Health , an estimated 3.6% of U.S. adults had PTSD in the past year. https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/statistics/post-traumatic-stress-disorder-ptsd ​ Symptoms may include: ​ Recurrent, unwanted distressing memories or dreams of the traumatic event Negative thoughts about yourself, other people or the world Hopelessness about the future Memory problems Difficulty maintaining close relationships Feeling detached from family and friends Being easily startled Always being on guard for danger What are some causes of PTSD? You can develop post-traumatic stress disorder when you go through, see or learn about an event involving actual or threatened death, serious injury or sexual violation. Doctors aren't sure why some people get PTSD. As with most mental health problems, PTSD is probably caused by a complex mix of: Stressful experiences, including the amount and severity of trauma you've gone through in your life Inherited mental health risks, such as a family history of anxiety and depression Inherited features of your personality — often called your temperament The way your brain regulates the chemicals and hormones your body releases in response to stress How do you treat PTSD? Post-traumatic stress disorder treatment can help you regain a sense of control over your life. The primary treatment is psychotherapy, but can also include medication. Combining these treatments can help improve your symptoms by: Teaching you skills to address your symptoms Helping you think better about yourself, others and the world Learning ways to cope if any symptoms arise again Treating other problems often related to traumatic experiences, such as depression, anxiety, or misuse of alcohol or drugs You don't have to try to handle the burden of PTSD on your own.

Treatment for OCD Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) features a pattern of unwanted thoughts and fears (obsessions) that lead you to do repetitive behaviors (compulsions). These obsessions and compulsions interfere with daily activities and cause significant distress. You may try to ignore or stop your obsessions, but that only increases your distress and anxiety. Ultimately, you feel driven to perform compulsive acts to try to ease your stress. If you have OCD, you may be ashamed and embarrassed about the condition, but treatment can be effective. At Solrei Behavioral Health in Orlando, Florida, our providers have extensive experience evaluating and managing symptoms of OCD in adolescents, and adults. If you or a loved one struggles with OCD, call the office today or request an appointment online to find support. Telemedicine visits are also available. 407-638-8903 Request Appointment What is Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)? Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is a real and serious mental health condition that can dramatically impact every aspect of one's life, making day-to-day experiences challenging. Sufferers find themselves consumed with specific thoughts and feelings they simply cannot ignore or control. If you or someone you know is struggling with OCD it is important to remember that help is available and seeking appropriate treatment can make a significant difference in overcoming these intense struggles. ​ According to National Institute of Mental Health , an estimated 1.2% of U.S. adults had OCD in the past year. https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/statistics/obsessi ve-compulsive-disorder-ocd ​ Symptoms may include: ​ Intrusive & persistent thoughts obsessions, or urges Repetitive acts or behaviors to alleviate stressing over an event or situation Fear of contamination or dirt Doubting and having difficulty tolerating uncertainty Needing things orderly and symmetrical Excessive washing and cleaning Feeling the need for extreme orderliness Following a strict routine Am I a perfectionist or do I actually have OCD? OCD usually begins in the teen or young adult years, but it can start in childhood. Symptoms usually begin gradually and tend to vary in severity throughout life. The types of obsessions and compulsions you experience can also change over time. Symptoms generally worsen when you experience greater stress. OCD, usually considered a lifelong disorder, can have mild to moderate symptoms or be so severe and time-consuming that it becomes disabling. There's a difference between being a perfectionist — someone who requires flawless results or performance, for example — and having OCD. OCD thoughts aren't simply excessive worries about real problems in your life or liking to have things clean or arranged in a specific way. If your obsessions and compulsions are affecting your quality of life, see a mental health professional. How do you treat OCD? Obsessive-compulsive disorder treatment may not result in a cure, but it can help bring symptoms under control so that they don't rule your daily life. Depending on the severity of OCD, some people may need long-term, ongoing or more intensive treatment. The two main treatments for OCD are psychotherapy and medications. Often, treatment is most effective with a combination of these. Certain psychiatric medications can help control the obsessions and compulsions of OCD. Most commonly, antidepressants are tried first.

Treatment for Opioid Addiction Anyone who takes opioids is at risk of developing addiction. Your personal history and the length of time you use opioids play a role, but it's impossible to predict who's vulnerable to eventual dependence on and abuse of these drugs. Legal or illegal, stolen and shared, these drugs are responsible for the majority of overdose deaths in the U.S. today. Addiction is a condition in which something that started as pleasurable now feels like something you can't live without. Doctors define drug addiction as an irresistible craving for a drug, out-of-control and compulsive use of the drug, and continued use of the drug despite repeated, harmful consequences. Opioids are highly addictive, in large part because they activate powerful reward centers in your brain. Opioids trigger the release of endorphins, your brain's feel-good neurotransmitters. Endorphins muffle your perception of pain and boost feelings of pleasure, creating a temporary but powerful sense of well-being. When an opioid dose wears off, you may find yourself wanting those good feelings back, as soon as possible. This is the first milestone on the path toward potential addiction. At Solrei Behavioral Health in Orlando, Florida, our providers have extensive experience treating opioid addiction. If you or a loved one is struggling with drug addiction, call the office today or request an appointment online for help. Telemedicine visits are also available. 407-638-8903 Request Appointment How do you identify opioid abuse and addiction? Is someone you love abusing opioid medications? It may not be easy to tell, especially in the early stages of addiction. Perhaps you've noticed changes in your loved one's moods or behavior that don't add up. Or maybe your intuition is telling you there's a problem. Even if you can't put your finger on anything specific, it's worth taking stock of your concerns. If your instincts are right, speaking up could save the life of someone dear to you. Ask yourself some questions about your loved one's personal risk of addiction and the changes you may have noticed. If your answers point toward a possible addiction, reach out to your loved one's doctor. He or she is a critical partner if you determine it's time to take action. According to National Institute of Health , in 2020, an estimated 2.7 million people aged 12 or older, in the United States had an opioid use disorder (OUD) in the past 12 months—including 2.3 million people with a prescription opioid use disorder. overdose deaths involving opioids have dramatically increased over the previous decade to 80,411 deaths in 2021. Besides overdose, consequences of the opioid crisis include a rising incidence of infants born dependent on opioids because their mothers used these substances during pregnancy and increased spread of infectious diseases, including HIV and hepatitis C (HCV), as was seen in 2015 in southern Indiana. Effective prevention and treatment strategies exist for opioid misuse and use disorder but are highly underutilized across the United States. An initiative of the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) began in 2015 to address the complex problem of prescription opioid and heroin use. In 2017, HHS announced five priorities for addressing the opioid crisis: improving access to treatment and recovery services promoting use of overdose-reversing drugs strengthening our understanding of the epidemic through better public health surveillance providing support for cutting-edge research on pain and addiction advancing better practices for pain management Effective medications exist to treat opioid use disorder: methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. These medications could help many people recover from opioid use disorder, but they remain highly underutilized. Fewer than half of private-sector treatment programs offer medications for opioid use disorders, and of patients in those programs who might benefit, only a third actually receive it.

A person is at risk of developing an addiction to opioids after 3-5 days of taking a prescribed pain reliever. Approximately 3/4 of individuals who use heroin, started by using opioid pain relievers. Taking too many or taking very potent opioids can cause an overdose, which may result in death. Some examples of opioids include: Heroin (aka Black Tar, Dope, Junk, or Smack) is not used medically, but can be bought on the street and is injected, smoked, or snorted. Heroin is also sometimes contaminated with fentanyl, carfentanil, and other very potent drugs, increasing the risk of accidental overdose and death. Oxycodone (aka OxyContin, Oxy, Percocet, Percodan, Roxicet, and Endocet), Hydrocodone (aka Vicodin, Norco, Lortab, Lorcet, and Vicoprofen), Codeine (found in combination medicines such as Tylenol #3 or Robitussin AC), Hydromorphone (aka Dilaudid), and Morphine (aka MS Contin and Roxanol) are all strong prescription pain medications, sometimes found in combination pills with acetaminophen (Tylenol) or other medicines. Fentanyl (aka Sublimaze, Subsys, Duragesic, and China White) is a very potent prescription pain medication that is increasingly abused. Fentanyl is 100 times more potent than morphine and 50 times more potent than heroin. Only a tiny amount can cause a fatal overdose. Methadone (aka Dolphin) is a long-acting prescription opioid that is sometimes used as part of the medical treatment of opioid addiction. All of these drugs can be deadly, but help is available to treat people struggling with addiction. How do you treat opioid addiction?
