1 Boring Old Man » either way… - 0 views

  • The point of bringing this discussion up is that I said when the etiology and treatment of a particular condition became clear, it would no longer be "psychiatric" and gave as examples Syphilis and Epilepsy. I was arguing that psychiatry was the medical specialty that dealt with the things that didn’t fit, the ambiguous.

      Interesting take on the role of psychiatry
  • If many depressions are in the life/mind ball park, then those patients need someone who thinks like me. Doctors didn’t give up on diabetics because they hadn’t yet discovered insulin. The notion that psychiatry is only clinical neuroscience as Dr. Insel says just seems strange to me. Sick people don’t much care about "future help." They’re more in a "right now" frame of mind.
  • We’re still hacking at mental illnesses, doing what we can.

  • Thus far, "souped up" antidepressant  therapy doesn’t seem to have added very much, but hope springs eternal for some. The problem for me is that the STAR*D and CO-MED studies have been so oddly done and reported that I can’t even tell if they answer their own stated questions either way…

    Excellent article - intense academic study in any field can place a strain on students' mental health. Yet the added stress of needing to be "creative on demand" is worth considering.

    Thanks for your insightful comment, Sarah. I agree. There seem to be more and more reports of students struggling with mental health issues. I did a double take when I read about the six hour art classes at some IHEs. The therapist's dilemma of treating the patient while not wanting to stifle creativity also seems problematic. Thanks again for posting.

    "unless states carefully regulate the plans that compete in the exchanges and the benefits that they offer, people with mental illness, who typically have higher health care costs, are at risk of receiving poorer quality care."
