San Francisco Psychiatrist - Jeffrey Schwartz MD SYMPTOMS There are many symptoms that can be treated with medications. What follows are examples of some of the symptoms that clients who come to me for treatment might have: depressed mood, anxiety, mood swings, PMS, insomnia, change in weight or appetite, excessive sleep, low energy, decreased interest in things, excessive guilt, low self-esteem, poor concentration, racing thoughts or slowing down of thought processes, agitation, rumination, obsessive thoughts, compulsive behavior, inattention, decreased productivity, inability to focus on conversations or instructions, difficulty with organization, decreased sexual interest or performance. If you have any of these symptoms to the point that they are creating significant distress or interfering with your goals or normal activities in life, then this would be a good reason for you to consult with a psychiatrist. About 30% of the population at one time or another has some of these symptoms to the extent that they could benefit from treatment. If you have any of these symptoms, you should understand that you are not alone, that these problems are common and that these problems are in most cases very treatable with medications.
