Depressive Disorders
Bipolar Disorders
You may not have known that Bipolar Disorder is actually one of the worlds oldest diseases. Using early medical records, researchers have found symptoms of this disease recorded from since the second century. Aretaeus of Cappadocia (a medical philosopher) first recognized and linked symptoms of mania and depression, but his findings were ignored. Then, in 1650, scientist Richard Burton wrote a book called The Anatomy of Melancholia. Even today, he is credited as being the founding father of depression as a mental illness. Others who made significant findings in the field of this illness include:
Jules Falret (1854), established a link between depression and suicide Francois Baillarger, characterized distinction between bipolar disorder and schizophrenia Emil Krappelin (1913), established the term manic-depressive
The National Association of Mental Health (NAMI) was founded in 1979. A lot of significant research was done in 1980, and included findings like the distinguishment between adult and childhood bipolar disorder. Even today, methods for treating bipolar disorder are still being tested and probable causes being researched.
is one of the most recognizable names in the history of bipolar. He is sometimes referred to as the founder of modern scientific psychiatry and psychopharmacology. In the early 1900s, after extremely detailed research, he formulated the separate terms manic-depression and dementia praecox.
history
Sigmund Freud broke new ground when he used psychoanalysis with his manic-depressive patients: biology then took a back seat. He implicated childhood trauma and unresolved developmental conflicts in bipolar disorder. In the early 1950s, German psychiatrist Karl Leonhard and colleagues initiated the classification system that led to the term bipolar, differentiating between unipolar and bipolar depression.
Major Depression Dysthymia Depressive Disorder NOS Bipolar Disorder, Type I or II Cyclothymia Bipolar Disorder NOS
EPIDEMIOLOGY
Depressed mood most of the day, nearly everyday Diminished interest or pleasure in all, or almost all, activities Significant changes in appetite and/or weight Significant changes in sleep patterns Psychomotor retardation or agitation Fatigue or loss of energy Feelings of worthlessness or inappropriate guilt Diminished ability to concentrate or make decisions Recurrent thoughts or death or suicide
In a New England Journal of Medicine study, 69% of diagnosed depressed patients reported unexplained physical symptoms as their chief compliant1
Bereavement (mourning)
Normal reaction to the loss of a loved one May have several depressive symptoms Consider diagnosis of major depressive episode if:
Symptoms persist > 2 months after loss Presence of any of the following:
Guilt (except for actions taken or not taken at time of death) Profound and persistent anhedonia Marked psychomotor retardation Decreased self-esteem Suicidal ideation Hallucinations other than hearing voice or seeing image of deceased person
One or more Major Depressive Episodes AND No history of mania or hypomania or mixed episode Many patients given the diagnosis of MDD reveal past episodes of manic or hypomanic behavior Specify:
Single Episode
Recurrent : 2 major depression episodes, separated by at least a 2 month period with more or less normal functioning/mood (with or without full interepisode recovery)
MDE specifiers
stimuli, depression that is worse in the morning, early morning awakening, excessive guilt, weight loss.
Psychotic features
disease and a poor prognostic indicator Categorized as mood congruent : in hormony with mood example guilt
mood incongruent
Melancholic features
One of the oldest terms in psychiatry, dating back to hippocrates in 4th century Associated with changes in autonomic nervous system and endocrine function, for that reason the term endogenous depression appears . It describe sever anhedonia, late insomnia, loss of weight, profound feeling of guilt, suicidal ideation.
Specify if: With Melancholic Features (can be applied to the current or most recent Major Depressive Episode in Major Depressive Disorder and to a Major Depressive Episode in Bipolar I or Bipolar II Disorder only if it is the most recent type of mood episode) A. Either of the following, occurring during the most severe period of the current episode: (1) loss of pleasure in all, or almost all, activities (2) lack of reactivity to usually pleasurable stimuli (does not feel much better, even temporarily, when something good happens) B. Three (or more) of the following: (1) distinct quality of depressed mood (i.e., the depressed mood is experienced as distinctly different from the kind of feeling experienced after the death of a loved one) (2) depression regularly worse in the morning (3) early morning awakening (at least 2 hours before usual time of awakening) (4) marked psychomotor retardation or agitation (5) significant anorexia or weight loss (6) excessive or inappropriate guilt
The clinical picture is dominated by at least two of the following: (1) motoric immobility as evidenced by catalepsy (including waxy flexibility) or stupor (2) excessive motor activity (that is apparently purposeless and not influenced by external stimuli) (3) extreme negativism (an apparently motiveless resistance to all instructions or maintenance of a rigid posture against attempts to be moved) or mutism (4) peculiarities of voluntary movement as evidenced by posturing (voluntary assumption of inappropriate or bizarre postures), stereotyped movements, prominent mannerisms, or prominent grimacing (5) echolalia or echopraxia
Atypical features
Reffered to reversed vegitative symtoms younger age of onset,more sever psychomotor slowing, more frequent association with panic disorder and substance abuse.
Specify if: With Atypical Features (can be applied when these features predominate during the most recent 2 weeks of a Major Depressive Episode in Major Depressive Disorder or in Bipolar I or Bipolar II Disorder when the Major Depressive Episode is the most recent type of mood episode, or when these features predominate during the most recent 2 years of Dysthymic Disorder) A. Mood reactivity (i.e., mood brightens in response to actual or potential positive events) B. Two (or more) of the following features: (1) significant weight gain or increase in appetite (2) Hypersomnia (3) leaden paralysis (i.e., heavy, leaden feelings in arms or legs) (4) long-standing pattern of interpersonal rejection sensitivity (not limited to episodes of mood disturbance) that results in significant social or occupational impairment
Specify if: With Seasonal Pattern (can be applied to the pattern of Major Depressive Episodes in Bipolar I Disorder, Bipolar II Disorder, or Major Depressive Disorder, Recurrent) A. There has been a regular temporal relationship between the onset of Major Depressive Episodes in Bipolar I or Bipolar II Disorder or Major Depressive Disorder, Recurrent, and a particular time of the year (e.g., regular appearance of the Major Depressive Episode in the fall or winter). Note: Do not include cases in which there is an obvious effect of seasonal-related psychosocial stressors (e.g., regularly being unemployed every winter). Full remissions (or a change from depression to mania or hypomania) also occur at a characteristic time of the year (e.g., depression disappears in the spring). C. In the last 2 years, two Major Depressive Episodes have occurred that demonstrate the temporal seasonal relationships defined in Criteria A and B, and no nonseasonal Major Depressive Episodes have occurred during that same period. D. Seasonal Major Depressive Episodes (as described above) substantially outnumber the nonseasonal Major Depressive Episodes that may have occurred over the individual's lifetime.
Dysthymia
A. Depressed mood most of the day, more days than not, for at least 2 years B. Presence, while depressed, of 2 (or more) of the following:
1. Poor appetite or overeating 2. Insomnia or hypersomnia 3. Low energy or fatigue 4. Low self-esteem 5. Poor concentration or difficulty making decisions 6. Feelings of hopelessness C. During the 2-year period, the person has never been without
Dysthymia
D. Not better accounted for by Major Depressive Disorder E. There has never been a Manic, Mixed, or Hypomanic episode
Dysthymia
disorders with depressive features that do not meet the criteria for Major
Depressive Disorder, Dysthymic disorder, Adjustment Disorder with Depressed Mood or Adjustment Disorder with Mixed Anxiety and Depressed Mood. Sometimes depressive symptoms can present as part of an
Anxiety Disorder Not otherwise Specified.
lasting from 2 days up to 2 weeks, occurring at least once a month for 12 months(not associated with the menstrual cycle) Post psychotic depressive Disorder of schizophrenia: a Major Depressive Episode that occurs during the residual phase of schizophrenia.
A Major Depressive Episode superimposed on delusional disorder, Psychotic Disorder Not Otherwise Specified, or the
active phase of schizophrenia.
Situations in which the clinician has concluded that a depressive disorder is present but is unable to determine whether it is primary, due to a general medical condition, or substance induced.
Bipolar Spectrum
Bipolar I : full blown mania Bipolar 1.5 : depression with protracted hypomania Bipolar II : depression with hypomania Bipolar 2.5 : cyclothymic depression Bipolar III : hypomanic episodes which occur only after taking antidepressant medications. Bipolar IV :disorder of ultra-rapid cycling of mood between hypomania or mania and depression.

A. A prominent and persistent disturbance in mood predominates in the clinical picture and is characterized by either (or both) of the following: (1) depressed mood or markedly diminished interest or pleasure in all, or almost all, activities (2) elevated, expansive, or irritable mood B. There is evidence from the history, physical examination, or laboratory findings of either (1) or (2): (1) the symptoms in Criterion A developed during, or within 1 month of, Substance Intoxication or Withdrawal (2) medication use is etiologically related to the disturbance C. The disturbance is not better accounted for by a Mood Disorder that is not substance induced. Evidence that the symptoms are better accounted for by a Mood Disorder that is not substance induced might include the following: the symptoms precede the onset of the substance use (or medication use); the symptoms persist for a substantial period of time (e.g., about a month) after the cessation of acute withdrawal or severe intoxication or are substantially in excess of what would be expected given the type or amount of the substance used or the duration of use; or there is other evidence that suggests the existence of an independent non-substance-induced Mood Disorder (e.g., a history of recurrent Major Depressive Episodes). D. The disturbance does not occur exclusively during the course of a Delirium. E. The symptoms cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning.
Mood symptoms with intoxication or withdrawal May take weeks-months to normalize mood Substance use highly comorbid in mood disorders (bipolar I > bipolar II > MDD)
A. A prominent and persistent disturbance in mood predominates in the clinical picture and is characterized by either (or both) of the following: (1) depressed mood or markedly diminished interest or pleasure in all, or almost all, activities (2) elevated, expansive, or irritable mood B. There is evidence from the history, physical examination, or laboratory findings that the disturbance is the direct physiological consequence of a general medical condition. C. The disturbance is not better accounted for by another mental disorder (e.g.,Adjustment Disorder With Depressed Mood in response to the stress of having a general medical condition). D. The disturbance does not occur exclusively during the course of a delirium. E. The symptoms cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning. Specify type: With Depressive Features: if the predominant mood is depressed but the full criteria are not met for a Major Depressive Episode With Major Depressive-Like Episode: if the full criteria are met (except Criterion D) for a Major Depressive Episode With Manic Features: if the predominant mood is elevated, euphoric, or irritable With Mixed Features: if the symptoms of both mania and depression are present but neither predominates Coding note: Include the name of the general medical condition on Axis I, e.g., 293.83 Mood Disorder Due to Hypothyroidism, With Depressive Features; also code the general medical condition on Axis III. Coding note: If depressive symptoms occur as part of a preexistingDementia, indicate the depressive symptoms by coding the appropriate subtype of the dementia if one is available, e.g., 290.21 Dementia of the Alzheimer's Type, With Late Onset, With Depressed Mood.
