Sažetak
Since it is generally known that the human body is the best image of the human soul, this paper aims to explain how important
body language is when diagnosing psychiatric diagnosis ''depression''. It is important to point out the importance of other alternative
approaches in the treatment of depression when standard psychopharmacotherapy is not enough. Body language is a powerful form
of non-verbal communication that provides important traces of intentions, emotions, and motivations in other people. In everyday
life, we collect information about what people think and feel by their body posture, manners, and gestures. Evaluations of clinical
depression are traditionally based on verbal information. However, non-verbal expressive behavior, related to reflexive feedback of
a person, may reveal negative emotional or social processes that are not fully controlled by patients therapy, along with other
artistic therapies (art therapy, drama therapy, and music therapy are other artistic therapies that are applied in Great Britain) offers
an attractive opportunity for patients because it enables them to work on those issues that are placed on non-verbal and pre-verbal
level.
Creative psychofarmacotherapy is the concept that involves creativity as its main means. In this context, the importance of
physical activity and body movements will be emphasized in the treatment of depression, when regular psychopharmacotherapy is
not sufficient.
To conclude, the patient has the right to actively take part in creating a therapeutic relationship and responsibly contributes to
overcoming psychopathology. The importance of physical activities and body movements is emphasized in the treatment of
depressive people. Studies have shown that the anti-depressive effect of physical activity is increased with simultaneous use of
antidepressants, as well as that movement therapy and music therapy, together with regular pharmacotherapeutic methods, help with
fast recovery and that they can be used in a creative approach to problem-solving.
