So you rather have your brain depending on drugs to defeat depression than learning how to defeat it without drugs? And then what 4 or 5 months later increase the dosage because your tolerance increased. Why would you be satisfied depending on drugs rather than motivating yourself to find someone who can help you defeat the issue without it? That's like" I need to stop smoking because it makes my clothes smell so I'll just buy a nicotine patch....no more smell." That won't solve nothing but put more money in therapist pockets. While still depended on drugs that money goes to them.

It can also cause the body to release irregular amounts of hormones and other chemicals in the body, leading to further complications.

Thanks for sharing this video. I have been diagnosed with chronic pain, stemming from fibromyalgia (but I just think they gave it that label because it was handy. I think it could be a made-up illness to describe or capture the pain we have that they can't attribute to anything else.) I also have been diagnosed with TRD and MDD. And nothing has helped. I'm pretty sure the pain came first, and the severe depression after that. Although a psychiatrist I saw for a short time (I don't believe in therapy. I've analyzed myself for decades.) determined I had been depressed probably since childhood when my parents divorced. He wasn't wrong. The problem is, I haven't found any meds that help. I've been in chronic pain that has impacted my life severely for almost 40 years. It has cost me friends, jobs, and relationships. Sorry for the long post, but just wanted to say that it's about time someone recognized the relationship between pain & depression. I'm glad there's a scientific explanation for it. I will share with family, because they don't believe me.

I'm similar. I think it's a combination of using up so much mental, emotional and physical energy on our anxiety that we end up exhausted, plus possibly not getting good quality sleep so feeling extra sleepy or fatigued during the day, plus feeling a relief from being asleep...because it's the only time we get a reprieve from the anxiety...plus (for me anyway), I always have a feeling of impending doom, so sometimes even the thought of doing anything just makes me feel physically sick with stress and fear, so I find that staying in bed is like hiding or withdrawing from that fear, and lastly, chronic anxiety for me has led to chronic depression, which tends to make it harder to get out of bed...especially when I don't have anything I want to do thanks to being too anxious to even try to enjoy anything.

It might be that chronic pain is interpreted as something not controllable, that one cannot help, hopeless - which leads to depression. Just an idea.

This is perfect timing. I have mdd and chronic pain. I have a pain management dr due to the pain. It has gotten stronger as years go by. My pain dr has helped me try to function but the pain is severe. What's the difference between chronic pain and fibromyalgia? I have fibromyalgia but call it chronic pain because it doesn't stop. Can u tell me the difference? P.s. you are an excellent speaker and teacher!! Thanks for this video

Hi Dr Tracey Marks. I'd like to know what is the best approach when you have treatment resistant depression and other comorbidities. I'm getting treated for low thyroid and cortisol levels, and shifted antidepressants for the fourth time and it still hasn't helped me to get better, though I tried psychotherapy and self care. What should I try next?

This makes sense, i get back pain and headaches when i'm in an episode. I struggle to define the difference between being depressed or if i'm sick. By the time i go to a doctor, whatever the illness/bacteria is, is much worse which i could have avoided if i went early. Do you have any advice on defining whether i'm sick or depressed? I have rapid cycling bipolar 2 (about every 3 weeks or so) thanks (:

Hey, Dr. Marks. A little over 2y ago I was diagnosed with bipolar 2 disorder after a long depressive episode + SSRI's = hypomania. Since then I've been on Lithium + Lamictal and life's been great. I've had 2 depressive episodes post my diagnosis but no hypomania whatsoever. Can someone have bipolar 2 with just one antidepressant-induced hypomanic episode?

Hi Dr. Marks! In my psychology class today it was mentioned by my professor that, in the states, sadness (not depression or prolonged sadness) may be considered to be added to the dsm (or some other diagnostic manual for psychiatrists...?) I find it extremely hard to believe and a very disturbing IF that were true.. What are your thoughts on this? Is it something that could be done? What may be the consequences of that?

Most people who have chronic pain especially somatoform pain disorders have alexythmia because pain impairs the brain biologically to feel emotions(emotional blindness and not emotional numbness).This means most people who are in chronic pain can't feel emotions , hence they can't even feel depressed since they feel neutral all the time.and still cbt is used for treating pain disorders for people who are not even familiar with how stress feels like.quite an irony.thoughts?
@DrTraceyMarks3 жыл бұрын
Thanks Navjot for this question. A therapist should be able to recognize the alexithymia. Part of the treatment could include helping the person connect with their emotions and help them name the emotions. I talk about recognizing emotions in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnbdoZyDaNWJa80 It's not quite the same as CBT for alexithymia, but it's the same concept

6:32 - You listed only one tricyclic antidepressant and it was NOT one of the secondary amines, it's a tertiary amine (amitriptyline, Elavil). The secondary amine TCAs, for instance desipramine and nortriptyline, have a stronger relative preference for NET, the norepinephrine transporter, relative to SERT, the serotonin transporter. As a result, the secondary amine TCAs cause more norepinephrine reuptake inhibition and raise NE levels more. Increased levels of NE seem more directly related to pain relief, at least based on studies using intrathecal drug administration. Of note, nortriptyline is a major active metabolite of amitriptyline. Desipramine is a major active metabolite of imipramine (Tofranil), which was the first TCA to be marketed. Amitriptyline has gotten a lot of attention and remains familiar to doctors possibly because it is often used for migraine prophylaxis, whereas most other TCAs are second- or third-line for everything, due to SSRIs being generally awesome. SSRIs are safer in overdose, they aren't anticholinergics (which also cause constipation), they have more predictable side effects, they are often less sedating, and they are less likely to cause cardiac arrhythmia - at least in general. But desipramine and nortriptyline deserve attention. Also, you didn't list MAOIs, but the lack of opioids is really far more heinous. You also didn't list gabapentin or pregabalin, those help neuropathic pain and have some mood effects. Ketamine, an NMDA antagonist, is most often considered a general anesthetic, but low doses are as effective as morphine for pre-hospital pain relief (given in the ambulance), and ketamine is also attracting attention as an antidepressant with very strange kinetics and dose schedule. We could also talk about memantine, another NMDA antagonist approved only for Alzheimer's disease (unless I'm mistaken), but it has interesting mood effects - I suspect it dulls pain, but I have not seen or heard that. NK1 antagonists like aprepitant might also relate to both mood and pain - although aprepitant is approved as an antiemetic, so yet another class of symptoms and diseases.

Thanks for explaining this. I have a lot of pain and a lot of weird illnesses. I was exposed to toxic chemicals in the military. My problem is that I have treatment resistant depression. My doctor recently prescribed blood pressure medication and nortiptyline along with my venelifaxine. I don’t have high blood pressure. I’m not taking it! I feel like I’m a Guinea pig. I ran out of the venelifaxine because it’s on back order through the VA. This brought on withdrawals, so I had some leftover Paxil. I’m taking 40 mgs a day for two weeks then I’m stepping down to 20 mgs for a week, then nothing. They want me to try ketamine or ECT. Not doing that either. I’m considering going to a state that has easier access to psilocybin and trying that out. If that doesn’t work, maybe I’ll eat my gun…

All praise and thanks to our Creator, the Quran and lifestyle of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him and upon Jesus, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jonah... the body pains come and go mostly go quickly now. Alhamdulillah (praise and thanks to the One Creator) and Glorified and Highly Exalted is the One (Subhaanallah!) . Try reading/listening to Quran in arabic and english and ask the One Creator for healing and guidance. 20 yrs ago that's what I did. I want to teach my grands /great grands this. I already told my children. LOOK KIDS, NO PILLS, LOTS OF PRAY AND PRAISE AND GLORY...FOR OUR CREATOR!
