Abstract(s)
A ciclotimia é uma doença para os clínicos já conhecida há considerável tempo, apesar disso,
é por vezes negligenciada até pelos profissionais que mais sabem sobre doenças psiquiátricas.
Perturbações depressivas, bipolares I e II, até pela perceção de gravidade destas, recebem mais
atenção e mais estudos, como tal face a estas doenças, existe sensivelmente menos
conhecimento e menos interesse, os estudos são mais focados no tratamento dos episódios
hipomaníacos e distímicos agudos, visando prevenir alterações afetivas mais graves a longo
prazo. Com esta tese está em vista alcançar um esclarecimento mais profundo sobre a
ciclotimia, retirar dúvidas que se possam ter, e reunir informação suficiente para deitar alguma
luz sobre esta patologia.
No momento em que vivemos, as perturbações psiquiátricas fazem parte de um importante
leque na incidência e prevalência de doenças que assolam a humanidade, o que por sua vez
implica custos consideráveis a nível pessoal, económico e familiar, assim sendo, uma maior
capacidade de reconhecer corretamente e atempadamente, assimilando as informações
concedidas pelos doentes dará origem a um melhor tratamento, aumentando assim as
probabilidades de um prognóstico mais favorável.
Cyclothymia is a disease known to us for a long time now, however, it’s quite often neglected even by the physicians who know the most about psychiatric disorders. Major Depressive disorders, Bipolar Disorder I and II, with the associated perception of severity in these diseases, end up getting more attention and more scientific studies, as such, regarding cyclothymia, there is less knowledge and less interest, and studies are generally more focused on the treatment of the depressive and hypomanic episodes, in order to prevent more severe mood disorders in the long run. With this thesis, my objective is to enlighten the world of cyclothymia, answer questions about it, and gather enough information to shed some light in this pathology. Right now, in the moment which we live in, psychiatric disorders have a very important role in the incidence and prevalence of diseases in mankind, and that means that there is a big cost on a personal, familiar and economical level, so, an improved ability to correctly diagnose, as soon as possible with the information conceded by the patients, will give rise to a better treatment, and increase the likelihood of an happier prognosis.
