Mode Of Access: World Wide Web. La santé mentale et la douleur sont des problématiques complexes. De plus, elles partagent certains mécanismes neurophysiologiques qui font que l'une influence l'autre, ce qui rend encore plus complexe l'identification des caractéristiques propres à chacune. Cette dualité entre la composante somatique et psychique peut ainsi devenir un piège pour le spécialiste de la santé mentale. Il peut être difficile de départager l'évolution d'une pathologie douloureuse de celle de la maladie mentale dont souffre le patient. Le but de cet ouvrage collectif est d'aborder de façon didactique les divers aspects de la douleur en santé mentale. Les différents chapitres couvrent l'historique, les mythes, la neurophysiologie, la perception, la mesure et la prise en charge de la douleur en santé mentale. Les problèmes les plus courants dont les troubles de l'humeur, la schizophrénie, le trouble bipolaire, les troubles somatoformes, le stress post-traumatique et les troubles envahissants du développement y sont également couverts. Chacun des chapitres aborde la problématique de la douleur en mettant l'accent sur les particularités des différentes populations de patients qui souffrent d'un trouble de santé mentale Front Matter....Pages i-viii Introduction....Pages 1-2 Pain in Mental Health: Myths....Pages 3-13 Neurophysiology of Pain....Pages 15-31 Pain Perception in Mental Health: An Overview....Pages 33-45 Sex and Gender Differences in Pain and Mental Health....Pages 47-80 Chronic Pain and Depression: A Complex Epidemiological Picture....Pages 81-97 Pain in Depressive Disorders....Pages 99-117 Chronic Pain and the Anxiety Disorders: Epidemiology, Mechanisms and Models of Comorbidity, and Treatment....Pages 119-155 Could Schizophrenia Be a Refractory Condition to Central Pain Sensitization?....Pages 157-171 Why Does My Body Hurt?
