Improve and innovate community mechanisms combined with western medicine to treat bipolar depression

Abstract

Background

Bipolar depression is increasingly affecting people’s quality of life. There are mainly medication and psychotherapy for treatment, but there also exist psychological and social environmental factors that affect the symptoms. This study will use a combination of Western medicine and medication to improve and innovate community work mechanisms, and provide group integrated psychotherapy for patients.

Subjects and Methods

100 patients diagnosed with depression from a specific hospital underwent psychological evaluation, and were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, with 50 patients in each group. The experimental group received a combination of Western medicine and group integrated psychotherapy, complemented by community work mechanisms. The control group received only a combination of Western medicine and group cognitive behavior therapy. The experimental data was analyzed using SPSS23.0 statistical software, which included descriptive statistical analysis.

Results

The results showed that the total scores of the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) in the two groups were significantly lower than before treatment. After SPSS analysis, the difference in results was F=102.48, P=0.001, F=55.96, P<0.001, with statistical significance. After 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, the difference in results between the two groups of HAMD was t=3.49, P=0.001, t=2.51, P<0.19, with statistical significance.

Conclusions

This study found that group integrated psychotherapy combined with community work mechanisms is significantly superior to group cognitive behavior research, which can improve patients’ treatment enthusiasm and early differences. Group integrated psychotherapy combined with community work mechanisms can effectively enhance patients’ psychological resilience.
