Dr. Alan Koenigsberg answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Too many: Psychological illness is generally considered to be emotional in nature, and best treated with various forms of psychotherapy, not medications first line. Psychiatric illnesses are best evaluated and treated by psychiatrists, usually with psychiatric medications, of which there are about one hundred, so it's difficult to list them in this venue. If you can be more specific, that would help.
