Psychiatry consultation is usually needed for people with long-term, terminal, or painful physical health conditions to provide psychological support as well.
No recovery time is needed after the psychiatry consultation itself. You should be allowed to go back to your normal activities, including work and exercise, immediately after your treatment. Note that it is normal to feel emotionally drained or overwhelmed after a psychiatry consultation. Therefore, it is okay to rest after your consultation and return to your daily activities when you feel ready.
Your recovery will start after treatment, which will depend on your specific condition and the type of treatment you undergo.
Psychiatry consultation is the first step of treatment for mental health conditions. Consultations have high success rates in diagnosing your condition and finding out the reason for your problems. There is typically no risks involved in psychiatric consultations. Discussing your past, problems, family history, and treatment goals can bring up sensitive issues that may cause you to feel a lot of emotions.
