Answer to Question 2

1, 2, 4, 5

Rationale 1:Cognitive-behavioral therapies help to change the patient's negative styles of thought and behavior that are associated with depression.
Rationale 2: Electroconvulsive therapies (ECT)have been used with serious and life-threatening mood disorders unresponsive to pharmacotherapy.
Rationale 3:Long-term hospitalization is not used in severe depression.
Rationale 4:Studies suggest that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) may improve mood in major depressive disorders.
Rationale 5:Pharmacotherapy is also used in treatment of severe depression.

Global Rationale: Many therapies are used in severe depression.Two short-term psychotherapies that are helpful for some forms of depression are interpersonaland cognitive-behavioral therapies. Interpersonal therapy focuses on the patient's disturbedpersonal relationships that both cause and worsen the depression. Cognitive-behavioraltherapy helps the patient change the negative styles of thought and behavior that are oftenassociated with depression. Psychodynamic therapies, often postponed until the depressivesymptoms are significantly improved, focus on resolving the patient's internal conflicts.In patients with serious and life-threatening mood disorders that are unresponsive to pharmacotherapy, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has been the traditional treatment. Pharmacotherapy is also used in treatment of severe depression.
