Exploring Biological, Psychological, and Social Factors in Anxiety and Depression Treatment A Study on Diagnosis and Personalized Care for Adults Aged 18 to 65

What this Trial Is About

This research explores how thoughts, feelings, surroundings, and individual biology contribute to anxiety and depression. It aims to understand why people experience these conditions differently, how they respond to treatment, and what factors influence treatment success or challenges. The study focuses on a wide range of biological, psychological, and social factors, including inflammation, hormone levels, behavior, personality, medical history, social support, and attitudes toward mental health. The study involves psychological and psychiatric treatments such as psychotherapy and medication management. Participants will set personal treatment goals and provide video updates between sessions about medication use, emotions, and sleep. The study follows three phases initial diagnostic assessment and treatment engagement, active treatment with weekly sessions and biological sample collection until remission, and a remission-maintenance phase with less frequent sessions and ongoing monitoring. Participants will attend regular clinical sessions where symptoms, spoken language, and video recordings are collected. Biological samples will be taken during acute episodes and weekly until remission, then periodically during maintenance. The study tracks treatment engagement, response, and remission over weeks to months. Data and samples are securely stored and may be shared with authorized researchers while protecting participant privacy. The total participation period varies depending on individual treatment progress.
