Mood Disorders
Mood disorders are brain-based dysfunctions recognised through the presence of persistent patterns of feelings, thinking and behaviour that result with problems in relationships, impulse control and functioning in personal, social or occupational setting which cause distress to the client and/ or their loved ones. The onset of these patterns can usually be traced back to adolescence or childhood.
More About Mood Disorders
CLOSEAt Montrose Place, the multi-disciplinary (link to treatment introduction) extended care treatment programme is designed to comprehensively address mood disorders as co-morbid diagnoses.
Mood disorders can be a cause, catalyst, or perpetuator of an addiction, chemical dependence or compulsive behaviour.
In such cases, it is vital to take expert advice as such diagnoses can have a considerable impact on the client’s recovery. With accurate diagnosis and treatment undertaken with a long term perspective the outcomes for these individuals are significantly improved.
Many mood disorders will only surface in the second or third month of treatment for chemical dependence, which highlights the importance of an extended care treatment programme, such as those that are available at Montrose Place.
