What Are Mood Disorders?
Mood disorders are conditions that affect a person’s emotional state, energy levels, motivation, and ability to function day-to-day. They go far beyond occasional sadness or changes in mood, they involve persistent shifts that can disrupt relationships, work, school, and overall quality of life. At Anew Psychiatry, we diagnose and treat a wide range of mood disorders with a thoughtful, compassionate, and individualized approach.
Types of Mood Disorders We Treat
We provide expert evaluation and treatment for:
-
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
Persistent sadness, hopelessness, loss of interest, fatigue, changes in sleep or appetite, or difficulty concentrating.
-
Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia)
A long-term, low-grade form of depression lasting 2 years or longer.
-
Bipolar I Disorder
Manic episodes with elevated or irritable mood, impulsivity, decreased need for sleep, or increased activity, often alternating with depression.
-
Bipolar II Disorder
Hypomanic episodes (less intense than mania) alternating with significant depressive episodes.
-
Cyclothymic Disorder
Chronic mood fluctuations that are milder than bipolar disorder but last for years.
No two patients experience mood disorders the same way, so our care is never one-size-fits-all.
