Adult and Geriatric Psychiatry

Geriatric psychiatry is a branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mental illnesses in elderly people. It is not shameful to seek help from a specialist skilled in the mental health treatment of older individuals. Psychiatric illnesses in older persons can be chronic and develop earlier in life, or they might develop for the first time after the age of 50. Substance misuse is widespread among the elderly, in addition to depression and anxiety. Neurological illnesses like stroke, Alzheimer's, and other neurocognitive disorders can cause delusions, agitation,and violence. Circadian rhythm abnormalities, as well as the misuse of drugs, might aggravate these symptoms.

Geriatric psychiatry focuses on the biological and psychological elements of normal ageing, the mental impact of severe and chronic corporeal illness, and the biological and psychosocial characteristics of the pathology of main psychiatric syndromes in older people. Geriatric psychiatrists focus on the prevention, assessment, treatment, and resolution of mental and emotional disorders in the aged, as well as the expansion of psychiatric care for both healthy and sick mature patients.
