Sumario: | INTRODUCTION: The covid pandemic has become a unique phenomenon in world history with great impact on mental health. OBJECTIVES: A great growth of anxious depressive pathology in relation to the Covid situation has appeared with the need to increase the psychiatric approach in the general population METHODS: A 58-year-old woman with no personal medical story of interest is referred to the high-resolution Covid program due to severe depressive symptoms: intense apathy, abulia, anhedonia, weight loss, insomnia and important social distancing after the beginning of the confinement due to the Covid Pandemic. 4 psychotherapy sessions are performed, with a maximum duration of 45 minutes. It is necessary to add antidepressant medication with sertraline up to 100mg to improve psychotherapeutic work. RESULTS: A complete recovery of symptoms is achieved even their severity with normalization of daily life. CONCLUSIONS: Small psychotherapeutic interventions have been shown, even with critically ill patients, to be very effective in helping patients regain their baseline status. DISCLOSURE: No significant relationships. |
