How to treat Yang depression?

The treatment of depression is definitely a medical problem. Depression must be a disease, not a simple psychological problem. Therefore, the treatment of depression must go to the hospital, not the so-called psychological adjustment.

I am a doctor who treats depression. Not all the patients I treat need medication. In fact, if the severity of your depression is only a mild depressive episode, you can really choose non-drugs to improve your depressive symptoms first. You can choose non-drugs, or exercise, or travel, or relax, or adjust yourself first. Of course, this method may or may not be helpful. If there is no help, it is not suitable to try non-drug treatment again. After all, depression is a chronic mental illness, which will get worse gradually. If the symptoms of depression are not effectively controlled for a long time, the disease will develop in a more and more serious direction. It may take more time and energy to take medicine at that time.

In addition, if your depression is diagnosed by a psychiatrist or psychologist in an outpatient clinic, it is even more inappropriate to try non-drug treatment for depression, because from the experience of psychiatric treatment around the world after the invention of antidepressants in the middle of last century, even simple psychotherapy is completely ineffective for patients with moderate or above depression.

In any hospital in any country in the world, medication is the most important treatment for depression. There is no doubt that those who say that depression has been treated with drugs and committed crimes don't even know the most basic medical knowledge. What is a chronic disease? Moreover, depression is a special chronic mental disorder. If the first treatment is enough to complete a course of treatment, and the treatment effect is ideal, then at least 50% patients will not have recurrent episodes of depression in the future. The common medical knowledge all over the world has come to China. There are many misunderstandings and prejudices in China, and there are also many unfair discrimination against people with depression. Perhaps people who discriminate against people with depression should experience their sense of helplessness, hopelessness and worthlessness before they know that depression is not a simple psychological problem at all.

In addition to medication, patients with depression will of course be combined with psychotherapy. The most widely used is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). However, psychotherapy has its limitations, such as slow onset time, the effect is related to the patient's acceptance, and the level of therapists varies greatly. At present, in domestic psychiatric hospitals, psychotherapy can only be an auxiliary treatment.

In addition, patients with severe depression, especially those who have stubborn suicidal thoughts, such as a firm hunger strike, can't talk and the medicine won't cooperate with you. Even if you take the medicine for a short time, you can't see the effect. The most suitable treatment for this kind of patients is non-convulsive electroconvulsive therapy, a physical therapy. Under the regulation of general anesthesia, the brain is stimulated by electricity, thus changing stubborn suicidal thoughts and related depressive symptoms. The main adverse reaction of modified electroconvulsive therapy is that it may damage the short-term memory of patients for a period of time, but generally it will not fully recover within 2-3 months.

① Depression can be reflected from patients' facial expressions, self-experience and chief complaints, and often complains of sadness and despair. Patients are unhappy even if they encounter happy things, and they are worried all day, frowning and sighing. Sometimes I get upset.

(2) Thinking disorder, mainly refers to feeling uninterested, worthless, hopeless, helpless and useless, always seeing things in a dim light, knowing that thinking is difficult, working ability declines, reflecting on the past, feeling guilty, blaming yourself, sometimes exaggerating one's sins and forming evil delusions.

(3) Interest and energy decline, patients become uninterested in their daily work and business hobbies, and feel meaningless to all activities. The patient felt weak all over. Even if they don't work, they feel tired. They clearly know what they should do, but they lack motivation and appear lazy and powerless.

④ Psychomotor block, slow action, little spontaneous activity, low voice and slow thinking process.

⑤ Biological symptoms and sleep disorders are mostly early awakening, loss of appetite, constipation and sexual dysfunction.

⑥ Suicidal thoughts and behaviors based on severe remorse are a great danger to patients with depression. Suicide often does not occur in the serious stage of the disease, because psychomotor disorder can not put suicidal thoughts into action, but often occurs in the remission period of depression, so we should be especially vigilant.

Mainly all kinds of antidepressants

Psychotherapy is necessary for patients with emotional disorders, because psychotherapy can at least relieve symptoms, prevent recurrence and improve patients' compliance.

Commonly used psychotherapy methods are:

(1) general counseling and supportive psychotherapy, listening patiently to the patient's narrative, making the patient feel that the medical staff are caring and understanding him, and giving explanations and guidance to his physical and mental problems, alleviating his pain and improving his confidence in treatment.

⑵ Cognitive therapy: Depression patients have three kinds of wrong cognition, namely, negative self-cognition, negative interpretation of personal experience or the world around them, and pessimism about the future. The purpose of treatment is to help patients rebuild their cognition and correct their prejudice.

⑶ Behavioral therapy: mainly let patients learn how to change or correct inappropriate behaviors, and commonly use relaxation training, systematic desensitization and aversion therapy.

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a kind of treatment method that uses a certain amount of current to cause epileptic discharge in the central nervous system and produce generalized convulsion. Its curative effect is rapid and even dramatic, and it is suitable for patients with severe depression.

If you are diagnosed with depression in the hospital, you should still take the medicine in full dose and full course according to the doctor's advice. Because depression is not only psychogenic, it also has a certain biological basis, that is, there are problems in the secretion and intake of neurotransmitters that make people feel happy and happy, such as dopamine and serotonin. The role of drugs is to promote the secretion of neurotransmitters and inhibit the intake of neurotransmitters, so as to achieve the purpose of treating depression. Drug therapy combined with psychotherapy can effectively prevent the recurrence of depression, and the occurrence of psychological diseases is basically determined by these three factors: congenital genes, acquired parenting and realistic stimulation. Depression is a very early problem, and psychotherapy can help patients improve their personality structure and better cope with real problems.

Only put what you think, extreme, into another thing, do more exercise, focus on exercise and relax, and you will get better gradually!
