Depression (TRD) Treatment in New York City

Depression – TRD (Treatment Resistant Disorder) – Brain Stimulation Therapy

It is normal to feel sad sometimes, but these feelings are expected to pass after a little time. For people with Major Depressive Disorder, it lasts significantly longer than it should. The implications of depression can be severe and affect self-esteem and how you perceive the world around you. Depression can affect anyone regardless of ethnicity, age, education level or socioeconomic factors. Scientists suggested Psychotherapy Treatment for Depression since depression is often by a combination of environmental, biological, and psychological factors.

The definition of TRD adopted by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)is failure to respond to two or more
antidepressant regimens despite adequate dose and duration and adherence to treatment.

Those with depression may struggle with:

• Changes in appetite accompanied by weight oscillation

• Irritability, restlessness, or frustration

• Insomnia and other sleep related issues like early morning awakening or oversleeping

• Persistent anxious, sad, or “empty mood”

• Decreased energy, lethargy, or persistent fatigue

• Headaches, cramps, aches or pains

• Thoughts of death or suicide attempts
