Objective: Self-management support is recognized as an important component of the management of mood and anxiety disorders. The goal of this feasibility study was to evaluate the acceptability, implementation and perceived usefulness of a new comprehensive self-management tool () in four care settings in Quebec, Canada.
Method: Care providers offered the tool to people with difficulties related to mood or anxiety disorders during a 7-month period. A sample of 71 participants filled out an online survey and 27 accepted to participate in a follow-up interview. Focus groups were conducted with 82 care providers.
Results: Satisfaction ratings were high for the tool overall, the likelihood of recommending it to friends, its attractiveness and interest, and its completion time. Perceived usefulness was high overall and was not related to most demographic and clinical variables. No adverse effects were reported.
Conclusion And Implications For Practice: The study highlights that is a comprehensive recovery-oriented tool, considered useful, acceptable and feasible to use in a variety of settings offering services for mood and anxiety disorders. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).

We sought to determine the use of ECT in adolescents in the Institute of Mental Health (IMH) and evaluate the treatment outcome.

Department of Psychiatry and Neuropsychology, School for Mental Health and Neuroscience, Maastricht University Medical Center, Maastricht, The Netherlands.

Due to a shortage of studies into this topic, relationships between mean ambient temperature and involuntary admissions have remained largely elusive.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLichen planus (LP) is an autoimmune disease that may affect the oral cavity and the skin, and it has the potential to change to malignancy. In this paper we report a LP case in a 42-year-old male patient in which anxiety and depression were apparently the only possible risk factors of LP. Due to this apparent comorbidity and the risk of not responding well to conventional medication (topical and systemic corticosteroids) or the risk of relapse in the case of ongoing stress, we decided to integrate psychotherapy (without psychotropic drugs) as an adjunct into the management strategy.
