Depression Cyclothymic with cause

Prof. Akiskal was right to appoint cyclothymia, "depression with cyclothymia? It is a question that may arise. Are the lives cyclothymic depression throughout his life? If so is it endogenous ("unprompted") or "reactive"? Since Hippocrates through Robert Burton and Benjamin Rush, the father of American psychiatry, there has always been a melancholy with cause ("mourning" of Freud) and unjust (according to Freud melancholy). For this reason, Horwitz and Wakefield's book, "The Loss of Sadness" (available in French: http://livre.fnac.com/a2838220/Jerome-C-Wakefield-Tristesse-ou-depression
) shows highlight a key aspect of diagnosis: return to the DSM does not necessarily have a mental illness as an emotional breakdown, bereavement, job loss can cause emotional distress to any person for a period shorter or longer . In depression "without cause" - "endogenous depression according to DSM-old version of the symptoms mysteriously appear of nowhere, while the individual conducting that life is normal. It seems clear that the biological mechanism dysfonctionnement.La knows a way we interpret our feelings have changed and we think that suffering for good cause is not natural and that we must get treatment to get better then that that should most often is patience, courage and above all the action to change their lives. course and finally if the person seeks treatment to reduce her suffering, she must be helped if she wishes. No debate on this aspect and also the DSM raises the question of suffering caused by events painful.

U.S. The NIMH recently found that 80 genes could be associated with bipolar disorder. 8 of these genes influence how the brain responds to neurotransmitters such as dopamine. Add to that the negative social and personal factors that influence the genetically vulnerable individual: stress, poverty, family instability, alcohol and drugs, etc. ... The origin of the disorder that becomes more complex and elusive.

Back to the practical problem of cyclothymia, There is no doubt that in all forms of cyclothymia and bipolar disorder, there is a "genetic susceptibility" but the question we must ask is the influence of external factors. I did not dare raise the case of BP I, because I'm not an expert but as regards cyclothymia, it is clear that we are facing a real problem because some specialists are trying to minimize the bipolarity and not While denying the external factors. To read some texts it seems that this biological vulnerability is inevitable and that eventually the episodes or cyclothymic reactions are driven by any external event, however slight it.

I was fortunate to meet and read many testimonials from people cyclothymic, three categories of hyper-Akiskal, pure and depressive-and three levels - neurotic, borderline and BP-tempered and I've never seen episodes of "unjust" but I do not pretend about all cases of cyclothymia. I speak of the person with whom I had contact.

A Japanese study on "Temperament and job stress in Japanese company employees" Sakai Y, Akiyama T, Miyake Y, Kawamura Y, Tsuda H, Kurabayashi L, Tominaga M, Noda T, Akiskal K, Akiskal H Department of Psychiatry the Juntendo University School of Medicine, found that cyclothymic and irritable temperaments Avient more problems work stress as dysthymic and hyperthymic. We know why ...

Similarly, I spent many years as a student example for which I have never had any problems individuals ... if cyclothymia was whether endogenous and without cause, she would have emerged during this period.

It seems clear that tools such as information and psycho-education (but which?) Prove essential to know and avoid pitfalls. The ones, who can follow the model of Proust (CF prior post) may be happier but in all cases, we must find meaning in his life and stimulation, not necessarily always an adventure and of emotional intelligence and ethics.

family, friends, spouses, and co-workers should be involved as possible and therapies that include at least the family will always bring a greater sense of well being.

symptoms of dysthymia, state or mixed-hyperthymic are not without reason and the doctor's job is to listen carefully, explain and advise the person seeking a diagnosis and solutions.


The "patient" should seek a clear diagnosis:
what type of bipolarity and what type of cyclothymia? Is there really a cure? Why and especially for how long? Ask the advantages and disadvantages of psycho-education or medicine? Ask what are the studies that prove the effectiveness of solutions and interview at least one other specialist and patients .
