You deserve the love shown to you. No matter how depression lies to you.,

You deserve attention to your feelings. Express yourself.

You deserve to let that pain out. The only way out, is through.

Your worth practicing self love. Always be kind to yourself.

Psychiatry is a medical practice; it is medication-focused. After your initial assessment, you will usually only see a psychiatrist for short med-checks of 10-15 minutes. You will generally not receive talk therapy.

Psychology is therapy and/or assessment-focused. After your initial intake, you will usually talk with your therapist for 45-50 minute sessions. You will not receive prescriptions.
