It begins in childhood and can continue into adulthood, affecting daily life. Treatment includes behavioral strategies, education, and sometimes medication to manage symptoms and enhance well-being.
ATTACHMENT
Attachment in psychology refers to the emotional bond between infants and primary caregivers, shaping lifelong emotional development. This concept, introduced by John Bowlby, identifies attachment styles like secure, anxious, and avoidant, which impact adult relationships based on early caregiving interactions.
ANXIETY
Anxiety is a normal response to stress, but excessive and persistent anxiety can lead to disorders that disrupt daily life. Symptoms include intense worry, fear, and physical reactions. Treatment involves therapy, medication, and self-care to manage symptoms and improve well-being.
TRAUMA
Trauma is a distressing experience that overwhelms a person's ability to cope, often resulting from events like accidents, abuse, or loss. It leaves lasting emotional, psychological, and sometimes physical effects. Recovery involves finding healthy ways to cope, seeking support, and regaining a sense of safety and control.
DEPRESSION
Depression is a mood disorder marked by ongoing feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and reduced interest in activities. It affects thoughts, emotions, and physical health, often disrupting daily life. Treatment includes therapy, medication, and lifestyle adjustments to alleviate symptoms and enhance mental well-being.
