Endocrine Psychiatry

The riddle of melancholia has stumped generations of doctors. It is a serious depressive illness that often leads to suicide and premature death. The disease’s link to biology has been intensively studied. Unlike almost any other psychiatric disorder, melancholia sufferers have abnormal endocrine functions. Tests capable of separating melancholia from other mood disorders were useful discoveries, but these tests fell into disuse as psychiatrists lost interest in biology and medicine. In the nineteenth century, theories about the role of endocrine organs encouraged endocrine treatments that loomed prominently in practice. This interest faded in the 1930s but was revived by the discovery of the adrenal hormone cortisol and descriptions of its abnormal functioning in melancholic and psychotic depressed patients. New endocrine tests were devised to plumb the secrets of mood disorders. Two colorful individuals, Bernard Carroll and Edward Sachar, led this revival and for a time in the 1960s and 1970s intensive research interest established connections between hormone dysfunctions and behavior. In the 1980s, psychiatrists lost interest in hormonal approaches largely because they did not correlate with the arbitrary classification of mood disorders. Today the relation between endocrines and behavior have been disregarded. This history traces the enthusiasm of biological efforts to solve the mystery of melancholia and their fall. Using vibrant language accessible to family care practitioners, psychiatrists and interested lay readers, the authors propose that a useful, a potentially live-saving connection between medicine and psychiatry, has been lost.

The Migraine Diet Cookbook

Diet can be THE most important element in the overall approach to reducing the frequency and severity of migraine attacks. However, trying to avoid migraine food triggers and additives when you are a migraine sufferer can be a nightmare. Each recipe in The Migraine Diet Cookbook contains no known common migraine triggers or additives. Based on the Headache Elimination Diet, this cookbook provides almost 60 recipes that either don’t contain the common migraine triggers, or have had them replaced with a non-trigger substitute. Many recipes include ingredients that contain nutrients that are known to be beneficial for migraine sufferers. Bonus! – substitutes for ingredients that are known migraine triggers To help with cooking other recipes every day, this cookbook also contains a list of substitutes for common food ingredients that are known migraine triggers. Some of the substitutes enhance the finished dishes to such a degree they taste even better than the originals made with conventional products. This is more than just a cookbook, it’s a reference that allows you to eliminate the common food and additive triggers from your diet every day so YOU control your migraines, instead of your migraines controlling you.

What is Schizotypal Personality Disorder? | Kati Morton | Kati Morton

JOURNAL CLUB! Every Tuesday & Friday I post a journal prompt to help keep you motivated and working on yourself! JOIN NOW: https://www.youtube.com/katimorton/join Order my book today! ARE U OK? http://geni.us/sva4iUY Schizotypal Personality Disorder: There are so many various diagnostic criteria that I want you to make sure you spend a lot of time with your therapist or psychiatrist before they give you this diagnosis. Many people find themselves being misdiagnosed because some of the criteria for schizotypal personality disorder overlaps with what they are really struggling with. Some of the diagnostic criteria are: Those with this disorder struggle in social situations and have a hard time with interpersonal relationships. They also have cognitive and perceptual distortions which can lead them to doing odd things, because they see and think things that others do not. In addition to this they must have at least 5 of the following 9 symptoms. 1. Ideas of reference. This means that they believe everything happening to them has some sort of significance (ie. this is all leading me to my destiny, or this is my fate, etc). 2. Odd beliefs or magical thinking. Meaning that they have these sets of beliefs that are not related to their culture or religious beliefs. Magical thinking is when we believe we have a sixth sense or that we can see the future. They may also believe that they have magical control over others (thinking that the reason you are opening the door for them is because they thought of it and thought you should do that). 3. Unusual perceptual experiences. This may be that they say they can sense someone nearby or that they hear someone murmuring their name. They will perceive things that someone without this disorder would not. 4. Odd thinking and speech. Can be very vague or speak in riddles. They may also be very tangential meaning they get off topic and we can’t tell what they are talking about anymore. 5. Suspiciousness or paranoid ideation. Meaning it’s hard for them to trust anyone. They are suspicious of everything and everyone. 6. Inappropriate or constricted affect. This means that the facial expressions we would expect do not happen. They may appear flat (showing no emotion at all) or laugh when everyone else is shocked. 7. Behavior or appearance that is odd. Since they are suspicious or everyone and perceive things that are not there, of course they act a bit odd! 8. Lack of close friends other than first degree relatives. This makes sense if we are suspicious of everyone, speak and look differently it can be hard for us to connect with others. 9. Excessive social anxiety that doesn’t diminish with familiarity. I also think it’s important to note that these symptoms are not due to a medical condition or a change in medication. Those changes can cause symptoms such as these and we need to rule those causes out.

Cancer Caregivers

Informal caregivers – family members, friends, and other loved ones – are an essential, uncompensated and significantly burdened extension of the healthcare team. Rapid advances in cancer care, including new drugs and immunotherapies and more sophisticated diagnostic tools, have markedly improved the ability to medically extend lives and enhance survival. As patients are living longer, with today’s shorter hospital stays and shift towards increased outpatient care, however, the demands placed on all caregivers and their needs have substantially increased. Cancer Caregivers reveals the field of Psycho-Oncology’s exploration of the depth of complexities of caregiving experiences and identifies the vast expanses left to be understood. This text describes the characteristics and experiences of cancer caregivers based on their life stage, relationship to the patient, and ethnic group membership, as well as patients’ disease and treatment type. It highlights the significant progress in research focused on the development and dissemination of psychosocial interventions for cancer caregivers, and includes in-depth case studies to illustrate their delivery and application. The text also explores the provision of support to caregivers in the community and the legal and ethical concerns faced by caregivers throughout the caregiving process. Cancer Caregivers offers both fundamental and practical information and is the essential resource for all healthcare professionals who work with patients and families facing cancer.
