  • Is behavior therapy for schizophrenia effective?

    often combined with medication, behavioral therapy, including CBT and DBT, can be helpful. There are psychosocial rehabilitation programs and agencies, such as Office of Vocational Rehabilitation, that can help with part-time volunteer or paid jobs which often helps a person lead a better life. NAMI, The Mental Health Association and other self-help organizations offer a number of programs. Peer support is a program when people in recovery from mental illness help others not as far along the path. READ MORE

  • Does therapy help with obsessive thoughts?

    Absolutely, but find a therapist skilled in dealing with OCD. Usually use exposure and response prevention techniques and cognitive behavioral techniques. Medication treatment is of variable help -- from remarkably better to minimal effect. SSRI's such as Prozac, Luvox or Zoloft are first-line treatments. READ MORE

  • Should I see a psychologist after divorce?

    Divorce is a major life event. People enter marriage thinking it will last forever. Marriages dissolve for various reasons. People adjust differently. A therapist can provide a private space to talk, objectively look at how you are doing and provide suggestions for you to build your new life. So, many people find therapy helpful. If you are having symptoms which are interfering with your life (sadness, rumination, increased drinking or drug use, acting impulsively, or being too open about your problems), a psychologist or other qualified therapist would be a great idea.

  • Who is most likely to be diagnosed with depression?

    Ages 18 to 25 are the highest risk group for depression with females, at about twice the risk as males. There are many factors that predisposed to depression, including medical illness, various stressors, family history, and postpartum state. Older men are at high risk of suicide. No matter what age, depression is a serious condition and should be treated. There are many available good treatments. David Nover READ MORE

  • Antidepressants?

    If your antidepressant is effective, I would strongly recommend taking it for a minimum of six months and generally closer to a year. If you have had severe recurrent depression, longer periods of time for treatment are recommended. Many anti-depressants have a withdrawal syndrome, so it’s important to work with the doctor and taper slowly to prevent discomfort or confusion as to whether symptoms are returning or you are experiencing withdrawal symptoms. Furthermore, if you have a slip back into depression, it is good to have your doctor there to assess you and treat you. Many depressed people, “let things go.” As for herbal remedies, “just because something is natural, doesn’t mean that it is safe“ Saint johns wort, can definitely be effective, but is also associated with some severe side effects at times and restrictions on taking with other medication. Make sure your vitamin D and B12 levels are normal and the thyroid functioning is normal. Ruling out sleep apnea and diabetes as causes of depression is also important. For better or worse, I’m writing to you from the land without a NHS. David Nover MD READ MORE

  • I’m pretty sure I have a tic disorder?

    If you have motor tics and vocal tics, you may have a condition known as Tourette’s syndrome. You can also include some obsessive compulsive symptoms. It is certainly not a close for psychiatric hospitalization! There are some medicines that can help. There are also some medicines that can bring on ticks, such as the stimulants used in attention deficit disorder. You could speak to your school nurse, leave a message at your doctors office, or mention it when you see your doctor even if your mother is present. Most states do not give minors the right to giving consent for general medical care. Good luck to you! The specialist you might want to see is a neurologist. David Nover, MD READ MORE
