Stimulant Medications

This chapter addresses the considerations particular to deprescribing benzodiazepines and stimulant medications. Included are considerations around deprescribing those medications that a patient may be invested in taking either because the medications provide immediate relief or because they can improve occupational functioning in the short-term. Addiction and problem use (due to rewarding effects) of psychotropic medications are beyond the scope of this book and are amply addressed elsewhere. Addressed are psychoeducation needs, the acknowledgment of how much relief the medications bring, and the recognition of how severe and prolonged withdrawal symptoms can be. Accounts from patients experiencing prolonged withdrawal are included as well as suggestions around tapering speed and flexibility adapted to the patient’s response and supported by other measures such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety, CBT for insomnia, and connection with support groups.

The Suitability for Short-Term Cognitive Therapy Rating Scale (SRS) defines 10 criteria to assess suitability for short-term cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). This study examines the relationships between pretreatment SRS scores and outcome of 113 patients treated with short-term CBT for a wide range of disorders. Using the reliable change index (RCI) as a measure of outcome, 65 individuals (57.5%) of the sample experienced statistically reliable improvement. Married status, employed status, female gender, and anxiety disorder as a primary diagnosis were positively correlated with posttreatment RCI. Awareness of emotion and security operations were the SRS items most strongly correlated with outcome. Also correlated were the two alliance potential items (in-session and out-of-session evidence) and the acceptance of personal responsibility for change. Hierarchical multiple linear regression analysis resulted in a three-variable model where married status, primary anxiety disorder, and mean SRS score accounted for 20% of the variance in RCI scores. We conclude that the SRS adds predictive value to the assessment of potential to succeed in CBT.

Therapy Efficacy

It has been a pleasure to assemble this month's issue of CNS Spectrums about cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety disorders in which the successful treatments of five disorders are discussed. As is evident from the five papers in this issue, most patients with pathologic anxiety can be helped with available treatment, either short-term CBT or medication. Also apparent in these papers is that the work has not been completed: some patients do not benefit from the available treatments at all, and most who do respond still remain somewhat symptomatic.

Целью статьи является анализ философских учений стоиков, основные установки которых сегодня плодотворно используются в методиках когнитивно-поведенческой терапии. Главным методом исследования является анализ практически ориентированной философии стоиков, учение которых обладает терапевтической ценностью, являясь средством воздействия не столько на диагностику психологических нарушений, сколько на тех, кто постоянно хочет научиться управлять своими умственными представлениями, целенаправленно изменяя своё поведение в течение всей жизни. Результатами исследования является сравнительный анализ основных положений учения стоиков и методов современной когнитивно-сравнительной терапии. Заслуга авторов статьи состоит в доказательстве, что когнитивно-поведенческая терапия фокусируется на кратковременные цели, которые определяются диагнозом и ограничены во времени, в то время как жизненная философия стоицизма способна вносить глубины и безвременные изменения в образ жизни и мировоззрение человека. Теоретическая и практическая значимость статьи заключается в доказательстве, что философия стоиков, которую сегодня рассматривают в качестве западной разновидности буддизма и альтернативы современной академической философии, - это практически ориентированная философия, целью которой является обоснование мудрости как этического идеала и возможности реализовать потенциально заложенную в каждого человека способность сформировать личную жизненную установку справляться с любой жизненной ситуацией средствами своего разума и управления эмоциями. Авторам удалось углубить предложенную проблематику, что может быть использовано для дальнейшего теоретического анализа и применяться для практической работы. The purpose of the article is to analyze the philosophical teachings of the Stoics, the main attitudes of which are today fruitfully used in the methods of cognitive-behavioral therapy. The main research method is the analysis of the practically oriented philosophy of the Stoics, whose teachings have a therapeutic value, being a means of influencing not so much on the diagnosis of psychological disorders, but on those who constantly want to learn how to control their mental representations, purposefully changing their behavior throughout their lives. The results of the study are a comparative analysis of the main provisions of the teachings of the Stoics and the methods of modern cognitive-comparative therapy. The principle achievement of the article consists in the proof that cognitive-behavioral therapy focuses on short-term goals that are determined by diagnosis and limited in time, while the life philosophy of Stoicism is capable of introducing depth and timeless changes in a person's lifestyle and worldview. The theoretical and practical significance of the article lies in the proof that the philosophy of the Stoics, which today is considered as a Western variety of Buddhism and an alternative to contemporary academic philosophy, is a practically oriented philosophy, the purpose of which is to substantiate wisdom as an ethical ideal and the possibility of realizing the potential inherent in each person to form a personal life attitude to cope with any life situation by means of his mind and control of emotions. The authors managed to deepen the proposed problems thus making possible to use the conclusions of its study for further theoretical analysis and practical purposes.
