14 Things Therapists Need You to Know About Suicide

Reader’s Digest – May 19, 2020 by Charlotte Hilton Andersen One of the major things people get wrong about suicide is thinking they can pinpoint the event that caused it. “With rare exception, suicide is because of mental illness,” says Mark Rego, MD, assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at the Yale University School of Medicine. “We often hear in the media, ‘Why did he do it?’ as if a job loss or romantic breakup holds the key to the tragedy. But these things happen daily to millions of people who do not even contemplate suicide.” Mental pain from difficult life events may be involved with suicide, but it is usually not the sole cause.

Questions to ask your doctor before going on antidepressants

The CheckUp by SingleCare – January 22, 2020 by Heather Jones | The discussion of side effects should include more information than just what they are. “What people usually do not ask (and should) is the context of what happens,” says Mark Rego, MD, assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at Yale University School of Medicine. “[For] example, if there is a side effect, how often does it happen? And—very importantly—does it bother or impair people? And will it go away?”

What Does Dissociation Feel like, According to 8 Experts

Up Journey – September 2019 Mark D. Rego, M.D. Psychiatrist | Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine Dissociation always has the quality of some aspect of missing consciousness. Sometimes it is hard to put your finger on this. People express things like being in a dream (some aspect of the world seems missing or unclear) or being personally unreal (here the always recognizable, but hard to express feeling of being yourself is not quite right). Visual phenomena play a large role in things in the world seem to not have their normal clarity or proportions (some things seem clear while others do not, usually the background). Other normal aspects of experience are also distorted, like time and the spatial arrangement of the outside world. Mostly things are as I have described. Further changes get into hallucinatory experiences and are not dissociation.

Mediterranean Diet May Reduce Risk of Late-Life Depression

Olive Oil Times May 28, 2019 by Mary West Mark D Rego, an assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at the Yale University School of Medicine, did not participate in the study, but told Olive Oil Times that the benefit of the MedDiet for late-life depression may be due to its effects on vascular health. “It’s important to note a few things about this study. Most importantly, it looked at late-life depression,” he said. “Cases of depression that first occur after age 55 or 60 are different than cases of depression that occur at a younger age. Late-life depression isn’t associated with a family history, and in approximately half of the cases, it’s the first sign of dementia.” “Moreover, this study showed a link between the MedDiet and prevention, not treatment,” he added. “Nonetheless, it’s in agreement with many theories about late-life depression that stress vascular health. It may be that many tiny strokes lead to late depression and even predispose to dementia. The MedDiet is proven to maintain a high level of vascular health and prevent many of the usual problems of aging.”
