The Concept of Euthymia
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Similar considerations apply to the use of the term euthymia in unipolar depression and dysthymia, where the overlap with the concept of recovery is considerable [9, 10] . Again, euthymia is often defined essentially in negative terms, as a lack of a certain intensity of mood symptoms, and not as the presence of specific positive features that characterize recovery [9] . This introduces the need for a more comprehensive definition of euthymia.
