    Woman And Depression – A Pdf Brochure

    May 31, 2008 /

    In any given year, 10 to 14 million people experience a clinical depression; women 18 to 45 years of age account for the largest proportion of this group. Clinical depression is a serious medical illness that is much more than temporarily feeling sad or blue. It involves disturbances in mood, concentration, sleep, activity level, interests, appetite, and social behavior. Clinical depression can develop in anyone, regardless of race, culture, social class, age, or gender. However, across virtually all cultures and socioeconomic classes, women are more likely than men are to experience depression.

    The post-university years can start out tough. The good news: it gets better.

    May 30, 2008 /

    ScienceDaily (May 13, 2008) — The post-university years can start out tough. The good news: it gets better. A new University of Alberta study of almost 600 of its graduates (ages 20-29 years old) tracked mental health symptoms in participants for seven years post-graduation and looked at how key events like leaving home and becoming a parent were related to depression and anger. Graduates showed a significant decrease in depressive symptoms over the seven years. Expressed anger also declined over time after graduation, suggesting improved mental health.                                              …

    May 29, 2008 /

    Posted 05/19/2008 Editor’s Note More adults with ADHD seek treatment, and the variety of options for therapy is growing.

Controversies over the use of stimulant medication continue, however, especially in the realms of cardiovascular risk and abuse liability. To discuss these issues, Medscape’s Randall F. White, MD, interviewed David W. Goodman, MD, Assistant Professor, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Baltimore, Maryland and Director, Adult Attention Deficit Disorder Center of Maryland.

Where have we made the most progress in research and clinical practice? A:  Progress in clinical practice has been most impressive in terms of treatment.
