Psychiatry & Mental Health 2017

Conference Series Ltd organizes a conference series of 3000+ Global Events inclusive of 600+ Conferences every year across USA, Europe & Asia with support from 1000 more scientific societies and publishes 700+ Open access journals which contain over 70000 eminent personalities, reputed scientists as editorial board members.

With great pleasure we announce the 28th International Conference on Psychiatry and Mental Health scheduled from November 20-21, 2017 in Melbourne, Australia. Conferences mainly focus on the Psychiatry and Mental Health disorders and therapies.

Psychiatry is the branch of medicine that is concerned with the study, treatment, and prevention of mental illness, using both medical and psychological therapies. Psychiatry includes various levels of mental state conditions starting from neuropsychiatry to general psychiatric conditions. Psychiatry meetings try to focus on all these mental conditions.

Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It helps us to determine how we handle stress and make choices. It is important at every stage of life, from childhood & adolescence till adulthood. Mental health may include an individual's ability to enjoy life, and create a balance between life activities and efforts to achieve psychological resilience.

Prevention of a disorder at a young age may significantly decrease the chances that a child will suffer from a disorder later in life. World Health Organization suggests that nearly half of the world's population is affected by mental illness. 50% of mental health conditions begin by age 14 and 75% of mental health conditions develop by age 24. 1 in 5 adults experiences a mental health condition every year. 1 in 20 suffers with a serious mental illness such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.

International Conference on Psychiatry and Mental Health is the leading meeting dedicated to Psychiatrists and Psychological researchers with the theme “Promulgate Evolving Adaptive treatments and Modern Psychoanalysis for Psychiatric and Psychological Disorders”

International Conference on Psychiatry and Mental Health is to deliver an outstanding program for exchange of ideas and authoritative views by leading scientists which covers the entire spectrum of research in Psychological disorders and share the cross-cultural experiences of various treatment procedures.

International Conference on Psychiatry and Mental Health is an annual meeting of Psychiatrists as well as Psychological committees to discuss the future of the Psychiatry and Psychological Syndromes in terms of collaboration, structures and organizational development and advances of Psychology and Psychological syndromes.

Many studies over the years, including reports from presidential commissions, surgeons general the Council of Graduate Medical Education, and the Institute of Medicine, attest to the dire shortage of psychiatrists relative to the almost 68% of our nation's sufferers who are deemed in need of care.

Projections from the studies mentioned above estimate a need for 30,000 by psychiatrists by 2018 but currently there are about 7000. Resulting in part from recent efforts by the American Academy of Psychiatry we will see a modest 30% increase in the number of medical students and general psychiatry residents choosing psychiatry as a career.

Track 1: Psychiatry

Psychiatry is the medical specialty that diagnoses and treats mental disorders, usually those requiring medication. Psychiatry is now a highly visible activity, lack of care in the community, compulsion, suicide, drug and alcohol abuse are few motivations. Starting with the identification of the major mental illnesses and how they are considered distinction from normality. Flourishing of psychoanalysis and its later transformation into more accessible psychotherapies gave a chance for better understanding. Modern psychiatry too brings with it new controversies such as the medicalization of normal life, the power of the drug companies and the use of psychiatry as an agent of social control.

Track 2: Psychology

Psychology is the study of behaviour and mind, embracing all aspects of conscious and unconscious experience as well as thought. It is an academic discipline and an applied science which seeks to understand individuals and groups by establishing general principles and researching specific cases. In this field, a professional practitioner or researcher is called a psychologist and can be classified as a social, behavioural, or cognitive scientist. Psychologists attempt to understand the role of mental functions in individual and social behaviour, while also exploring the physiological and biological processes that underlie cognitive functions and behaviours.

Track 3: Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is one of the most disabling and emotionally devastating illnesses but because it has been misunderstood, it has received relatively little attention and its victims have been undeservingly stigmatized. People with schizophrenia often have additional mental health problems such as anxiety disorders, major depressive illness, or substance-use disorders Schizophrenia is, in fact, a relatively common disease diagnosed in population over the course of their lives. While there is no known cure for schizophrenia, it is a very treatable disease. Most of those afflicted by schizophrenia respond to drug therapy, and many are able to lead productive and fulfilling lives

Track 4: Mental Illness & Health care

Mental illness includes a broad range of health problems. For most people, mental illness is thought of as an illness associated with severe behavioural disturbances such as violence, agitation and being sexually inappropriate. Such disturbances are usually associated with severe mental disorders. However, the vast majority of those with a mental illness behaves and looks no different from anyone else. These common mental health problems include depression, anxiety, sexual problems and addiction. There have been tremendous advances in our understanding of the causes and treatment of mental illnesses. Most of these treatments can be provided effectively. Mental health (psychiatric or psychologic) disorders involve disturbances in thinking, emotion, and behaviour. Small disturbances in these aspects of life are common, but when such disturbances distress the person greatly and/or interfere with daily life, they are considered mental illness or a mental health disorder. The effects of mental illness may be long-lasting or temporary. These disorders are caused by complex interactions between physical, psychological, social, cultural, and hereditary influences. Psychiatric medications are most often prescribed by primary care physician. However the best and most effective treatment for a mental health concern is from a mental health professional a psychiatrist, psychologist, clinical social worker or psychotherapist. For many patients, a combination of psychotherapy and medication is usually the proven, most effective method of treatment

Track 5: Psychiatry and Psychological disorders

The term psychiatric or psychological disorder means a mental disorder or illness that interferes with the way a person behaves, interacts with others, and functions in daily life. Psychiatric disorders are also sometimes known as mental health disorders or mental health illnesses.

These disorders range from normal behavioural & mood to violent actions.

Track 6: Mental Health-Types

Mental Health is the psychological condition of somebody who is working at an acceptable level of passionate and behavioral change. More than 200 sorted types of mental illness conditions are available. Mental Health incorporates a person's capability to appreciate life and make a harmony between ordinary life exercises and endeavours to accomplish mental flexibility. It is essential at each phase of life, starting with youth and youthfulness through adulthood. Half of the emotional well-being conditions start by age 14 and the rest of the conditions create by age 24. Prevention of mental disorder at the youthful age may altogether diminish the hazard that a child will experience the ill effects of it in the later life.

Track 7: Psychiatry and Psychology practice

Psychologist and a Psychiatrist both study the brain, emotions, feelings and thoughts, there is a distinct difference between the two fields of study Psychologists specialize in a host of different areas within the field and identify themselves by many different labels. The field of psychology encompasses both research, through which we learn fundamental things about human and nonhuman animal behaviour, and practice, through which that knowledge is applied to solving problems and promoting healthy human development. In each of the subfields, there are psychologists who work primarily as researchers, others who work primarily as practitioners and many who do both (scientist–practitioners). Indeed, one of psychology’s most unique and important characteristics is its coupling of science and practice, which stimulates the continual advancement of both.

Track 8: Women’s Mental Health

Great psychological well-being is a basic piece of a woman's general prosperity. Some mental health conditions happen more every now and again in women and can expect an essential part in the state of a woman's general prosperity. 29 million American women, or around 23 percent of the female masses, have experienced diagnosable mental prosperity associated turmoil in the latest year alone. Similar amounts of women and men experience enthusiastic health issues all around, yet a couple of issues are more fundamental in women than men, and the different way. Diverse social components put women at more genuine peril of poor enthusiastic health than men. In any case, women's status to talk about their feelings and their strong casual associations can secure their mental prosperity.

Track 11: Addictive Disorders

Several behaviours, besides psychoactive substance ingestion, produce short-term reward that may engender persistent behaviour despite knowledge of adverse consequences, i.e., diminished control over the behaviour. These disorders have historically been conceptualized in several ways. One view posits these disorders as lying along an impulsive-compulsive spectrum, with some classified as impulse control disorders. An alternate, but not mutually exclusive, conceptualization considers the disorders as non-substance or “behavioural” addictions.

Track 12: Mental health education and Training

Mental health education is dedicated to promoting mental health and decreasing the stigma surrounding mental illness by providing education to enhance awareness and understanding. Mental health requires the development of cognitive, emotional, and social skills for which educational settings make an ideal context. Educational settings promote mental health when they provide children and adolescents with a sense of identity and self-respect, direction and meaning in life, mastery, belonging, safety, social support and participation. Good mental health is associated with better educational and behavioural outcomes. A range of effective interventions are available to promote mental health and to prevent and reduce mental illness.

Track 13: Addiction

Addiction is a condition that results when a person ingests a substance (e.g., alcohol, cocaine, nicotine) or engages in an activity (e.g., gambling, sex, shopping) that can be pleasurable but the continued use/act of which becomes compulsive and interferes with ordinary life responsibilities, such as work, relationships, or health. Users may not be aware that their behaviour is out of control and causing problems for themselves and others. Addiction is a disorder of the brain's reward system which arises through transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms and occurs over time from chronically high levels of exposure to an addictive stimulus. Examples of drug and behavioural addictions include: alcoholism, amphetamine addiction, cocaine addiction, nicotine addiction, opiate addiction, food addiction, gambling addiction, and sexual addiction.

Track 14: Mental Health & Rehabilitation

Innovations in the range of evidence based medications, therapy and psycho-social services such as psychiatric rehabilitation, employment, housing and peer supports have made wellness and recovery a reality for people living with mental health conditions. Research showed that in the lifetime half of the cases with mental illness begin by age 14. Treatment options for mental health conditions will vary from person to person. Even people with the same diagnosis will have different kinds of experiences, needs, goals and objectives for treatment. For example, therapy can take many forms, from learning relaxation skills to intensively reworking your thinking patterns. Psychiatrists and psychologists use specially designed assessment tools to evaluate a person for a mental illness. Millions of Americans are surviving with many types of mental health problems such as social anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, drug addiction and personality disorders. Treatment recourse includes medication and psychotherapy. A psychologist is trained in a way so as to evaluate and diagnose mental illnesses but usually treats them by counselling or behavioural therapy. Different therapies like Psychotherapy, Activity therapy, Alternative therapy and Expressive therapy are discussed in the session.

Track 15: Anxiety and Depression Disorders

Anxiety disorders are actually quite common and it has been estimated that over one quarter of the general population will experience a real anxiety disorder during their lifetime. Commonly anxiety disorders co-exist with other medical conditions, especially depression. The majority of people who have depressive illness also experience symptoms of anxiety, there is evidence that these two conditions share similar disturbances in brain chemical function, specifically in serotonin transmission. Persistent depressive disorder or PDD is a form of depression. It is not a character flaw or sign of personal weakness. Depression is the common cold of mental disorders most people will be affected by depression in their lives either directly or indirectly, through a friend or family member. Confusion is commonplace about depression, for example, about what depression exactly is and what makes it different from just feeling down. There is also confusion surrounding the many types of depression e.g.: Depression is characterized by a number of common symptoms. These include a persistent sad, anxious, or “empty” mood, and feelings of hopelessness or pessimism, unipolar depression, biological depression, manic depression, seasonal affective disorder, dysthymia, etc.

Importance and Scope

Psychiatry meetings provide a unique forum to bring together worldwide distinguished academics in the field of neuroscience and neurology, Psychology, Psychiatrists, public health professionals, scientists, academic scientists, industry researchers, scholars to exchange about state of the art research and technologies.

Aim of this Psychiatry conference is stimulate new ideas for treatment that will be beneficial across the spectrum of Brain disorders.

Conferences, National symposiums and Workshops provide a dedicated forum for the advancement, execution and exchange of information about brain disorders and its allied areas.

Psychiatry is changing so rapidly that it seems impossible to predict a year ahead. Many of the programs that managed were based in community settings.  Psychiatry is a unique specialty with some very formidable challenges. The discussion of the future of psychiatry will focus on 5 interrelated areas: workforce, access, stigma, research, and ethics and public perception. There is a serious crisis in psychiatry workforce,  there are far too few psychiatrists, and large parts of the country especially rural and inner city areas have very few. Many studies over the years, including reports from presidential commissions, surgeons general the Council of Graduate Medical Education, and the Institute of Medicine, attest to the dire shortage of psychiatrists relative to the almost 68% of our nation's sufferers who are deemed in need of care. This shortage embraces all mental health.

Projections from the studies mentioned above estimate a need for 30,000 by psychiatrists by 2018 but currently there are about 7000. Resulting in part from recent efforts by the American Academy of Psychiatry we will see a modest 30% increase in the number of medical students and general psychiatry residents choosing psychiatry as a career.
