Scope of social rhythm therapy for older adults with mental health problems
Abstract
Disruption of habitual daily activities is associated with mental health issues. Social rhythm therapy encourages greater regularity of daily activities. Interventions to re stabilise the activities have been reported to be helpful. Social rhythm therapy has been used in bipolar disorder, depression, stress related disorder including posttraumatic stress disorders, insomnia, etc. Older adults with depression and emotional disturbance following bereavement may benefit from this therapy. More studies are needed about its usefulness in elderly with various mental health issues.
