Main objective
Scope: Efficacy, Prophylaxis
This study aims to evaluate effectiveness of stand alone MHT and a guided online CBTi with CRS on insomnia and depressive symptoms in perimenopausal women. Additionally, the added effect of a combination of MHT and guided online CBTi and CRS will be evaluated on the same outcome measurements. This study aims to ameliorate mental health complaints and improve well-being in perimenopausal women.
Secondary objectives 6
- Is CBTi + CRS or MHT, or a combination of both effective in improving other sleep quality indicators, as indicated by reducing subjective (sleep diary) and objective (headband EEG) insomnia symptoms and improving overnight dissolving of distress?
- Is CBTi + CRS or MHT, or a combination of both effective in reducing the severity of depressive symptoms, as indicated by reduced symptoms of depression on a validated depression questionnaire?
- Is CBTi + CRS or MHT, or a combination of both effective in reducing the severity of mental health complaints within the diagnostic dimensions of panic disorder, social anxiety, generalized anxiety, PTSD?
- Is CBTi + CRS or MHT, or a combination of both effective in improving wellbeing and daytime functioning as indicated by reduced use of care and improved health behaviours that support mental resilience, like enhanced physical activity, stress coping and bedtime regularity, and reduced smoking and alcohol use?
- Is CBTi + CRS able to enhance subsequent treatment responsiveness to MHT, as assessed by climacteric symptom severity at follow up?
- What are the associations between participant characteristics (sleep and health history, traits, hormonal sensitive depression) and current sleep, mental health and climacteric symptoms?
