Description
According to the Centers for Disease Control, about 25 percent of all U.S. adults have a mental illness and nearly 50 percent of U.S. adults will develop at least one mental illness during their lifetime. In the United States, anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness and frequently co-occur with depressive disorders. Traditionally, the mainstay of treatment has been medications. However, due to concerns about side effects or dissatisfaction with traditional medicine, it has been reported that 1 in 3 people seek out complementary treatments to supplement traditional care. This lecture seeks to 1.) help physicians understand the difference between complementary, alternative, functional, and integrative medicine and 2.) to provide physicians with an understanding of treatment options beyond traditional medications for treating psychiatric illnesses such as depression and anxiety.
Learning Objectives:
1. Describe the differences between complementary, alternative, functional, and integrative medicine
2. Understand and describe the non traditional psychiatric treatment options for anxiety
3. Understand and describe the non traditional psychiatric treatment options for depression
