New research provides additional evidence that your type of employment is associated with the outcome of depression treatments. According to the study, which was published in European Neuropsychopharmacology, depressed people with higher positions at work tend to respond less well to treatment.
“In everyday clinical practice it is common to observe the burden of mentally demanding jobs in subjects who are treated for depression. In fact, for them it is more difficult to return to work when minor residual symptoms are present, which may lead to slower recovery,” said study author Alessandro Serretti, a professor of biomedical and neuromotor sciences at the University of Bologna.
