3. Struggling with depression, anxiety, or insomnia despite medication and therapy tweaks? 🚑 The problem may not be the treatment—it’s the target. In this short lesson, consultant psychiatrist Dr Sanil Rege reveals the PACES framework (Perception, Activity, Cognition, Emotion/Reward, Sleep) and shows how clear, functional goals turn stalled care into real recovery.

👉 5 Targets to Fix Before Your Mental Health Treatment Can Work

1. Define clear goals – vague aims like “I just want to feel better” don’t guide treatment; specify what doing better looks like.
2. Stabilise first – calm hyper-arousal, regulate sleep, and settle emotions before starting deeper therapy.
3. Target functional domains – focus on perception, activity, cognition, emotion, reward/hedonic drive, and sleep (PACES), not just the label.
4. Match tools to timing – the right medication or therapy at the right stage (e.g. treat sleep/arousal before deep psychotherapeutic work).
5. Track progress as feedback, not failure – each layer removed reveals the next; adjust goals and treatment based on what emerges.
