Related: "Treating the Prodrome", a discussion about early treatment of schizophrenia and some speculation about possible mechanisms. [1] This sort of work is very exciting to me! Treating schizophrenia early seems like a win for everyone - less of an impact on the individual, less of a need for antipsychotics, and less societal impact. I've also seen some speculation about a prodrome for major depression, with a period characterized by anxiety or agitation before a full episode. Early detection of psychiatric episodes seems like a really ripe approach. [1] https://slatestarcodex.com/2018/09/20/treat-the-prodrome/ https://slatestarcodex.com/2018/09/20/treat-the-prodrome/
