When to see a doctor
- Low mood, no interest or no enjoyment for most of the day, every day, for more than 2 weeks: see your doctor.
- Worry you cannot control that affects your daily life: see your doctor.
- Easily distracted, forgetful and never finishing tasks since childhood, affecting work, study or relationships: see your doctor about an ADHD assessment.
- Trouble sleeping for months, or sleep so bad it is hard to cope, even after changing your habits: see your doctor.
- Gaming that comes before other interests and daily life, and has harmed work, study or people for about a year: see your doctor.
