Given the mobility problems, cognitive impairment, and fatigue typically associated with MS as well as the limited availability of psychotherapists, self-guided, automated, internet-based interventions may help to overcome treatment barriers often encountered by patients with MS. In a recent phase II randomized controlled trial (RCT) in Germany, the investigators found one such internet-based CBT program, Deprexis, to significantly reduce depressive symptoms in MS (Fischer et al., Lancet Psychiatry 2015). Despite these encouraging results, large, definitive trials of the most promising therapeutic approaches for MS-associated depression that could inform clinical practice are completely lacking.
