Abstract Depression is common in multiple sclerosis (MS), affecting up to 50% of patients at some point in their lifetime. Although the rate of depression in MS is higher than that in the general population and that in patients with other chronic medical conditions, depression in MS is underdiagnosed and undertreated. Antidepressant agents are used empirically in the management of MS-related depression, but evidence specifically demonstrating the efficacy of these medications in patients with MS is sparse. Considerable work suggests that psychological interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) may be effective in the management of depression in MS. Recently there has been an expansion of computerized adaptations of CBT, allowing patients to complete therapy sessions remotely via online programs. This article reviews our current understanding of depression in MS and the role of CBT in its management, focusing on recent developments in computerized formats for CBT. Four computerized CBT programs that have been previously tested in patients with MS are described: Deprexis, MoodGYM, Beating the Blues, and MS Invigor8. We conclude that despite challenges inherent to computerized CBT interventions, such platforms have the potential to positively affect mental health care delivery to the MS patient population.

Compulsive Disorder

AbstractObsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) has long been considered a treatment-refractory mental condition. Neither pharmacologic nor psychodynamic therapy has been proven to treat OCD effectively. Yet the prognosis for OCD has changed dramatically in recent years with the introduction of behavior therapy and the use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Many studies have shown that behavior therapy, especially exposure with response prevention, and SSRIs reduce obsessive-compulsive symptoms significantly. Still, many unanswered questions—including the role of cognitive therapy in the treatment of OCD, exposure therapy vs multimodal behavioral therapy, individual versus group therapy, outcome predictors in adults, adolescents, and children, and the role of combination treatment using an SSRI and cognitive-behavioral therapy—remain. This article will explore these issues as well as suggest directions for further research into OCD.
