Well, I ‘am’ a doctor in cl. Psychology and I always start my sessions with patients suffering from depression with the statement/definition: “Depression is Anger without Enthusiasm.” => Meaning: one is unconsciously angry at something or someone but just worn out and, therefore, can’t be bothered to deal with it. And, like Freud stated; the goal of PsychoTherapy is, “Making the Unconscious, Conscious.” Thus, I set about aiding my patients by (a) identifying who/what it is; (b) how that anger came about; (c) is that anger justifiable; and (d) how to resolve that anger.
this actually makes me sit back and think because i’ve noticed some of my needs aren’t being met and i’ve kept denying it for a while. i have done some extra steps in order to meet my needs but i have to do more work and humble myself. thank you for this and the resources you provided.
I’m not a MH nurse obv and haven’t had time to look too much into antidepressants (I will once my degrees done cos it’s rly interesting). But with long term patients I’ve had, I’ve seen a huge improvement when they’ve been started on anti depressants. This has even been the case with patients who lack capacity to understand that we’ve even gave them antidepressants. And the case with others who don’t really pay attention/care what we’re giving them as an inpatient. (Obv this is only anecdotal evidence) They definitely do work but research has shown results are clearer in patients who receive antidepressants in combination with CBT rather than either of the two as an individual therapy. There are also such a thing as dopamine reuptake inhibitors (cocaine is one lol) but I’d say the most commonly prescribed in the uk - at least where I work - is venlafaxine which also works as a SRI and is prescribed for severe depression. I think dopamine specific RIs are less likely to be prescribed as they can cause seizures & most patients I’ve reviewed with mental health history have a long PMH of alcohol and drug misuse making seizures more likely. I imagine there’s papers testing their efficacy against SRIs as well but I’ve not looked at any before so can’t comment Loved this vid though 💓

I've read somewhere that some people take zoloft and wellbutrin (which acts on dopamine and norepinephrine)
