Students work in small groups to analyze detailed case studies of patients with MDD and various comorbid conditions. Each group receives a different case study featuring combinations such as MDD with anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, or eating disorders. Groups identify symptoms, discuss how conditions interact, and present their findings to the class.

Students create comprehensive mind maps showing the interconnections between MDD and its common comorbidities. Include biological mechanisms, shared risk factors, overlapping symptoms, and treatment implications. Students can use digital tools or large paper formats, and then explain their maps to peers.

Divide class into expert groups, each focusing on a different research paper about specific MDD comorbidities. Students become experts on their assigned paper, then regroup to teach others. Topics should include anxiety disorders, substance use, PTSD, and chronic medical conditions with MDD.

Students create detailed Venn diagrams showing symptom overlap between MDD and common comorbid conditions. Working in pairs, they identify unique and shared symptoms, discuss diagnostic challenges, and consider treatment implications. Share and discuss findings with the larger group.

# data[].attributes.body
Students role-play as mental health professionals developing treatment plans for patients with MDD and various comorbidities. They must consider medication interactions, therapy approaches, and prioritization of treatments. Groups present their plans and receive peer feedback.

Using real epidemiological data, students analyze prevalence rates and risk factors for different MDD comorbidities. They create visual representations of the data and discuss implications for screening and treatment. Include practice in calculating odds ratios and relative risks.

Psychiatric comorbidities in patients with major depressive disorder

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Psychiatric comorbidities are common in major depressive disorder (MDD). They may worsen outcome and cause economic burden. The primary objective was to examine the prevalence of psychiatric comorbidities in MDD. The secondary objectives were to…

# data[].attributes.body
Students create digital timelines showing the typical development and progression of MDD with various comorbid conditions. Include key points of intervention, risk periods, and potential protective factors. Students present their timelines and discuss prevention strategies.

# data[].attributes.body
In pairs, students practice conducting diagnostic interviews using standardized assessment tools for MDD and common comorbid conditions. Focus on differential diagnosis, screening for multiple conditions, and appropriate documentation.

# data[].attributes.body
Divide class into teams to conduct rapid literature reviews on assigned MDD comorbidity topics. Teams create executive summaries of current research findings and present key points in a competitive format. Peers vote on most comprehensive and well-presented reviews.

# data[].attributes.body
Students create educational materials (brochures, videos, or presentations) explaining the relationships between MDD and specific comorbid conditions for a general audience. Materials should include signs, symptoms, treatment options, and resources for support.

# data[].attributes.body
Students are assigned roles as different types of mental health professionals (psychiatrist, clinical psychologist, social worker, etc.) and participate in a panel discussion about treating complex cases of MDD with comorbidities. Audience members submit case-based questions for the panel to address.

# data[].attributes.body
Students work in small groups to develop research proposals investigating specific aspects of MDD comorbidity. They must include research questions, methodology, and potential implications. Groups present proposals for peer review and feedback.
