We've been talking a lot recently about depression, cognition, and Multiple Sclerosis. It makes sense that, as MS can affect the brain, it's probably going to change what's going on up there. But it's still a relatively recent idea that physical changes to the brain are going to affect the way we feel, how we think, and how we interact with others. 

My guest today is Dr. Anthony Feinstein, Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Toronto and a neuropsychiatrist. His research and clinical work focuses on people with multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, and Conversion Disorder. He's also the author of the book,  Mind, Mood, and Memory: The Neurobehavioral Consequences of Multiple Sclerosis.

In this interview, we talk about how he became interested in working with people with MS, how changes to the brain can worsen cognitive issues and levels of depression, CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) as a means to manage the way we think and behave, and what patents can do to maintain their brain health.

I always say, Move It Or Lose It - but in this case, it could be Use It Or Lose It. And Dr. Feinstein gives us examples of things we can do to keep our brains healthy.
