Anxiety and Depression

Your retirement time should be a time of enjoyment and happiness but ten percent of senior Victorians suffer from chronic social loneliness and social isolation. Depression has been linked to a neurotransmitter imbalance that can be addressed with medication and supported with strategies and discussion. A treatment plan can be tailored to your personality and your requirements. 

The symptoms of anxiety and depression can be linked to mild cognitive impairment and early dementia. It is important for this to be recognized and treated early to decrease stress and emotional burdens. It can also be linked to people who are worried about their memory but on testing do not have dementia –so reassurance can decrease the stress and anxiety immediately. Come see the staff at Age Right to discuss your concerns and look forward to enjoying this next phase of living.
