Dr. Jamal Froiz, a consultant psychiatrist, explained that mental disorders result from an increase or decrease in the neurotransmitters secreted by the brain.
Froez said that decreased productivity at work is a symptom that warrants a visit to a psychiatrist, especially if it is accompanied by behavioral changes in dealing with others and a desire for social isolation.
The mental health consultant added that loss of appetite or increase in appetite are warning signs of mental illness, in addition to sleeping for long hours or insomnia.
He stressed the need to visit a psychiatrist in the event of these symptoms, to obtain the appropriate treatment.
