Major depression
Major depression, also known as Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), is a common and serious mental health condition that affects how a person feels, thinks, and functions in daily life. It is more than temporary sadness or a bad mood—it is a medical condition that can significantly interfere with work, relationships, physical health, and overall quality of life.
Bipolar depression
Bipolar depression is a phase of bipolar disorder, a mental health condition that causes significant shifts in mood, energy, and activity levels. Unlike unipolar (major) depression, bipolar disorder includes both depressive episodes and mood elevation (mania or hypomania).
During bipolar depression, a person experiences symptoms similar to major depression, but within the context of bipolar disorder
Anxiety
Anxiety is a natural response to stress or uncertainty. It’s the body’s way of staying alert and prepared. While occasional anxiety is normal, it can become a problem when it feels constant, overwhelming, or hard to control.
Anxiety can affect both the mind and body, causing excessive worry, restlessness, trouble focusing, or physical symptoms like a fast heartbeat or muscle tension. The good news is that anxiety is common and manageable, and with the right support, people can learn to feel more in control.
OCD
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition characterized by persistent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions) that a person feels driven to perform.
OCD is not a personality trait but it is a recognized medical condition that can affect people of all ages and backgrounds. With proper treatment—such as cognitive behavioral therapy (especially Exposure and Response Prevention) and/or medication—many people with OCD experience significant improvement.
PTSD
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. It may affect how a person thinks, feels, and responds to everyday situations, often causing symptoms like intrusive memories, heightened anxiety, avoidance, or emotional numbness. With the right support and treatment, recovery is possible.
PTSD is treatable, and many people find relief through therapy, support, and trauma-informed care.
Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a severe mental health disorder that affects how a person thinks, feels, and perceives reality. It is characterised by disturbances in thought processes, emotional responses, and behaviour. Symptoms vary between individuals but commonly include hallucinations, delusions, disorganised thinking, social withdrawal, reduced motivation, and difficulties with memory and concentration.
People living with schizophrenia have an increased risk of suicide. Despite common misconceptions, schizophrenia does not involve having a split or multiple personality.
ADHD
ADHD is not a lack of intelligence, motivation, or discipline. It reflects differences in brain development and function—particularly in networks involved in executive functioning, such as planning, prioritizing, sustaining focus, and regulating emotions.
People with ADHD can focus deeply on tasks they find engaging (a phenomenon sometimes called hyperfocus), while struggling with tasks that are routine, repetitive, or low in immediate reward.
Psychosis
People experiencing psychosis may have delusions, hallucinations, and disorganized or confused thinking.
Psychosis can be a feature of several mental health conditions, including schizophrenia, mood disorders, and substance-induced psychosis. With appropriate medication and psychological support, psychotic symptoms can often be reduced or, in some cases, fully resolved.
