Psychopathology

In the first episode of our “Art of Psychiatry” series, we will discuss depression, a common and debilitating mental illness. We will start by reviewing symptoms of depression. We will then discuss what it’s like to be depressed, how to better interact with someone who is depressed, and helpful questions to ask a depressed a patient. Throughout the episode, we will spend a significant amount of time exploring how depression is experienced, particularly through the lens of artists.
