RESEARCH

My main aim is to understand and investigate how Dysthymia affects students and how it can be treated without the use of medication.

This would help me develop a Rehabilitation Centre for patients with Dysthymia inspired by healing architecture and adopting holistic therapies.

OBJECTIVES:

What is Dysthymia? How are students affected?

How can its symptoms be reduced without the use of medication? (Holistic therapies)

To explore precedent studies on healing architecture. Has it been successful?

My research will help in understanding Dysthymia, its symptoms and alternative treatment methods apart from medication.

I have also looked at precedent studies dealing with similar illnesses and exploring design ideas through healing architecture.
