连建伟教授辨治郁证六法

郁证是指由于情志不舒、气机郁滞所致,以心情抑郁、情绪不宁、胸部满闷、胁肋胀痛,或易怒喜哭,喜叹息,或不思饮食,失眠多梦,或咽中如有异物梗塞等症为主要临床表现的一类病症,此与现代医学的抑郁障碍相似。现代社会高强度,快节奏的生活,各种家庭社会问题频发,人们心理生理压力普遍增加,郁证的发病率呈上升趋势。连建伟教授认为：情志怫郁为郁证之始因,气机郁结而进一步导致痰、湿、食、血诸郁为郁证之病机。因此,连老师临证多从情志郁结辨治郁证,常以疏肝解郁、养血健脾;行气开郁、降逆化痰;清化痰湿、温胆开郁;活血化瘀、行气解郁;益气补血、健脾养心;滋阴清热、镇心安神等六法来统领而治,每获良效,可为后学者法。
