Dr. Ole Thienhaus MD's Expert Contributions
Should I see a psychologist for insomnia?
Yes, by all means: Cognitive-behavioral Therapy for insomnia (CBTi) is the most effective treatment for insomnia. But first, make sure your sleeping problems are not secondary to something else. A sleep center should rule out obstructive sleep apnea, your primary care provider should rule out, for example, a thyroid disorder. READ MORE
What is a high depression score?
A "high depression score" typically refers to the result of a standardized clinical test, such as the Hamilton Depression Scale or the Beck Depression Inventory. A high number usually suggests that the answers entered in response to the queries of the test questionnaire are consistent with more severe depression. It is important to stress that, clinically, scores of rating instruments only make sense if they are accompanied by a clinical assessment of the person's mood. READ MORE
Can antidepressants make you sleep a lot?
Some antidepressants are quite sedating. If you have been sleeping more than you want to, check with your prescriber. First, he or she should check if excessive sleeping could be caused by something else. If the antidepressant is the likely cause, he or she should discuss with you an alternative. Bupropion, for instance, does not cause sedation. READ MORE
