Psychiatric Interviews for Teaching: Depression

In this film, the GP is seeing an individual that has a depressive condition. The individual describes signs and symptoms including low mood, tearfulness, decreased energy, minimized inspiration, early morning wakening, loss of appetite, weight loss, poor focus, reduced pleasure and also reduced rate of interest in self-care.

The general practitioner checks out the effect of the signs and symptoms on other people in the patient’s life, checks out the previous history of low state of mind, and makes an assessment of suicide danger. The general practitioner after that offers the individual a description of clinical depression.

Please keep in mind that this video clip has actually been made by the University of Nottingham for showing functions. The psychiatrist is a real psychiatrist but the client is played by an actor.
