Why choose Psychotherapy?
45% of all days off work due to illness are stress related (ISMAUK 2017).
Unrealistic targets that you set yourself and the demands of others can leave you feeling exhausted and unwell. If left untreated this manifests into physical symptoms such as:
. Low energy
. Headaches
. Upset stomach and nausea
. Aches, pains, and tense muscles
. Chest pain and rapid heartbeat
. Insomnia
. Frequent colds and infections
. Loss of sexual desire and/or ability.
Dealing with the cause of these symptoms will improve your wellbeing significantly. It may also reduce your susceptibility to developing a mental illness.
Anyone can suffer from a mental health disorder at any point in their life. Some times mental illness (e.g. depression, anxiety, drug/alcohol dependency & abuse) may develop suddenly or gradually become apparent after a traumatic event.
This will not go away on it's own and it can be difficult to do this alone. Having a mental illness can leave you feeling scared and confused. You may find it hard to understand what is happening and struggle to explain this to on your family and friends. Talking to a psychotherapist will help with this.
