Behavior and substance use
What we can help with
These are the concerns people bring to Hawthorne Psychiatry. Seeing your own on a list does not make it a diagnosis, and not seeing it does not mean there is nothing here for you. If in doubt, call and ask.
Filter by the kind of concern, or read the whole list. Several areas sit in more than one group, because in real life they rarely arrive on their own.

Everything above is general information about the concerns this practice works with. It is not medical advice and it is not an assessment of you. Whether any of it applies to your situation is something to work out together, in an appointment, with someone who has heard the whole story.
This practice does not provide emergency or crisis care, and messages are not monitored around the clock. If you are in danger, or thinking about ending your life, call or text 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. It is free and answered day and night, and veterans can press 1. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency department.

You do not need to be certain, and you do not need the right word for it. Getting in touch is enough to start.
