Not Everything that Quacks Is a Duck: PTSD and Its Doppelgängers
特色: Nikki Wilson
Panelists discussed psychotherapeutic treatment for PTSD, including medications approved for the disorder and how these drugs interact with other psychoactive pharmaceuticals. The group also addressed off-label drugs that may actually worsen PTSD symptoms. Because PTSD diagnosis requires a 30-day incubation period, the panel offered proactive interventions intended to “normalize” and integrate the trauma experience to build resilience in those affected.
