Disability and Mental Health, Part 4

This is the fourth and final video on mental health. I discuss when it might be best to seek help from others, the types of help available, and mental health medications and treatments.

Very informative didn’t realize antidepressants are ineffective to a large group of people.

Thank you. It's a mystery to me why antidepressants are ineffective in so many people. There is also an interesting phenomenon where SSRI antidepressants can be effective for a long time, and then stop working completely in the same person.

I had ECT and it was NOT helpful.Neither was ketamine but I got the gummy kind.

[@DisabilityExams]

NO psychiatric treatment is 100% effective for everyone. Ketamine is only 16-20% absorbed if given orally. 100% if intravenous, and 45-50% if intranasal: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketamine

Thank you, I hope it helped some folks. Going to do gastrointestinal and kidney/urinary tract diseases next, also how keeping a notebook can help your disability claim. Always interested in suggestions for topics!
