إعادة التأهيل في حالات الاكتئاب المقاوم للعلاج (TRD)

A person is diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) when they have a diagnosed depressive disorder that has not successfully responded to at least two antidepressant trials of adequate dose and duration. Usually, people with depression can recover once they receive adequate medication and treatment. However, in the case of TRD, medicine offers no relief. TRD is a relatively common condition, with up to 30% of people suffering from clinical depression struggling with TRD.

There is no single cause of TRD. In our experience at Paracelsus Recovery, depression becomes treatment-resistant when there are issues (often trauma) blocking the potency of the anti-depressant. Common root causes include medical conditions such as heart disease, cancer or thyroid problems, drug interactions, co-occuring conditions such as substance abuse and anorexia nervosa, intestinal perfusion, genetic dispositions, and misdiagnoses. The good news is that TRD is, in fact, treatable. At Paracelsus Recovery, we believe that all TRD means is that antidepressants didn’t work for you and a different treatment approach is needed. 

Through our combination of medical, psychological and personal care, we are proud to be the only clinic in the world that addresses co-occurring conditions and every possible root-cause of treatment-resistant depression. In so doing, we can help you recover in a matter of weeks, rather than years or months.
