Psychotic bipolar depression (PBD) is a prevalent yet understudied psychiatric illness with no specific guidelines or Food and Drug Administration-approved medications for its treatment. Recent studies suggest that some antipsychotics and mood stabilizers may be effective in managing bipolar depression; however, their effectiveness for PBD remains unclear. With an urgent need for more focused research for managing PBD, several authors conducted a literature review to piece together existing literature on the topic.   In this podcast, Dr. Julia Ann Koretski, Digital Editor of the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology (JCP), discusses the review with two of its authors, Dr. Maité Cintrón Pastrana and Dr. Anthony Rothschild, who is Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology. Both authors are from the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School. A third author, Jessica C. Irizarry Flores, is from the Ponce Health Science University Medical School in Puerto Rico.   The article appears in the July/August 2024 issue of the journal.

On today's episode, we're sitting down with Mikah Goldman Berg, a perinatal mental health advocate whose personal experience inspired her to become a Peer Mentor, Support Group Facilitator, and eventually a staff member supporting PSI's National Chapters. Although I met Mikah while volunteering in PSI's Peer Mentor Program, I had never actually heard much of what she'll share with us today until we hit record. Today, we'll hear about how Mikah navigated anxiety, bipolar disorder, & OCD (among other things) in the perinatal period, and how those experiences paved the way for making meaningful connections with others.Mentioned in today's episode:PSI Support GroupsPeer Mentor ProgramPSI State ChaptersAnnual PSI ConferencePodcasts: The Daily, Wow in the WorldBooks: The Light We Carry, The World Deserves My Children, Bridgerton SeriesInterested in sharing your story?Fill out our podcast interest form here!

According to the World Health Organization, bipolar disorder is one of the top three causes of hospitalization in people aged 15 to 44. It's estimated that 5% of the world's population is on the bipolar spectrum and of that 5%, only 1 to 2% are diagnosed. And while those percentages may seem small, with over 8 billion people currently in the world, we are talking about over 400 million people with bipolar brains. It's far more common than you think. In the US alone, around 4.4% of adults deal with or develop bipolar disorder, and the numbers show it impacts more females than males. I sat down with author and filmmaker Sara Schley to talk about her experience with bipolar disorder and how she has turned what she calls her broken into a blessing as she serves the world by spreading knowledge and resources for those who believe there's little hope out there. In fact, that's the furthest from the truth. So, whether you have a diagnosis, know someone who does, or has it genetically within your family, this moving, impactful conversation is filled with understanding, truths, science, and community. Let's dive in… Key Takeaways: 00:00 Introduction   03:10 Understanding Sara's why and the bipolar spectrum   08:11 Bipolar 1, 2, and why most doctors get it wrong   16:13 The stigma and research showing the positive of bipolar 22:07 The stamp of “I am broken…” 29:24 The 4 EMTs – Emergency Mental Health Toolkit 37:29 There are simple diagnostics available & the BrainStorm the Memoir      43:07 The practices that help calm the brain 47:29 Activating events that trigger bipolar and the research 48:22 Bipolar Pride! and how Sara got there 51:55 BrainStorm the Film   54:43 Sara's three gratitudes  I sit in awe of Sara and her journey.

Dr. Cynthia Calkin's study using Metformin in treatment-resistant Bipolar Disorder showed that improving insulin resistance dramatically improved depression outcomes. This research is helping shift the paradigm for how we treat bipolar disorder. Her clinical practice and research studies demonstrate that metabolic dysfunction significantly contributes to mental illness and, perhaps even more importantly, that treating metabolic dysfunction results in significant symptomatic improvements.  This is a dramatic clinical shift in psychiatry, and as you will hear, it has been slow to catch on within the psychiatry community. But with Dr. Calikn's research and her desire to help as many people as possible, Dr. Calkin is helping spread the word so more clinicians understand the benefit of approaching patients from a metabolic perspective.

In this episode, Joseph F. Goldberg, MD, and Roger McIntyre, MD, FRCPC, shed light on the symptom improvement timeline in bipolar depression. This is a topic made more complex when factoring in individual patient characteristics and comorbidities, but the 2 experts have astute insights on how to tailor a management plan based on such factors. They cover symptom management and improvement from a variety of angles, including evaluating improvement in functionality and mood, guidance on follow-up and dose adjustment schedules, the utility of measurement-based care, and—of most importance—how to best communicate with and support a patient while they work towards remission and recovery.Presenters:Joseph F.

In this episode, Greg W. Mattingly, MD, and Vladimir Maletic, MD, share their thoughts on treatment strategies across the bipolar depression spectrum. They begin by talking about their stance on treating bipolar with comorbidities with a holistic vs stepwise approach and discuss what strategies they would consider for a patient not yet diagnosed with but who is at risk of developing bipolar depression. In addition, they discuss the concept of phase-specific treatment, considerations for medication-related adverse events, and the utility of adjunctive measures for managing bipolar depression. Presenters:Greg W.

In this episode, Greg W. Mattingly, MD, and Vladimir Maletic, MD, have a conversation about the complexities of accurately diagnosing bipolar depression. Bipolar depression can be difficult to differentiate from other psychiatric conditions, such as unipolar depression, depression with mixed features, ADHD, PTSD, and anxiety. This differential is made more challenging in that patients with bipolar depression often have psychiatric comorbidities with overlapping symptomology. Listen as the 2 psychiatrists share their insights on how to act as detectives and weed through clues from current symptoms, past symptoms, and family history to reach an accurate diagnosis. Presenters:Greg W.

In this episode, Drs Greg W. Mattingly and Charles DeBattista have a conversation about the history and features of the bipolar spectrum. Because patients can present in mixed vignettes, diagnosis of bipolar depression can be challenging. The experts offer insight on when to hold a suspicion for bipolar depression, as well as common presentations they have seen over their years in clinical practice. The conversation then progresses to potential “triggers” of bipolar depression and culminates with a discussion of the current treatment paradigm for patients with bipolar depression: first- or second-generation antipsychotics. Presenters:Greg W.

You can always reach The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.We talk a lot on this podcast about asking for help - when you notice you're struggling with your mental health. And that can be a really hard step to take. But then, what happens when you ask for help, and the help you receive isn't what's best for you and your brain?? Unfortunately, that does happen. You can be prescribed the wrong meds, diagnosed with the wrong mental illness, or given the wrong treatment - and that can be really dangerous.That happened to Sheila Hamilton's husband. And now she's devoted her entire career to breaking down the stigma around mental illness and changing the system, through her podcast, Beyond Well with Sheila Hamilton, her web series, Chasing Chaos, and her book, All the Things We Never Knew: Chasing the Chaos of Mental Illness. So in this episode, we talk to Sheila about what she's learned about Bipolar Disorder, some of the misconceptions about mental illness and suicide, and what she hopes the mental health system will look like someday.Listen to Sheila's podcast: https://beyondwellwithsheilahamilton.com/Watch her web series, Chasing Chaos: https://www.namicc.org/chasingchaosYou can keep up with Mentally Together on Instagram @mentallytogetherpod.
