Kinds Of Treatments For The Flat Affect

Medications

If a medication is causing your flat affect, your doctor may change the type of medication you’re taking or the dosage.

 Psychotherapy

Therapy is considered a first-line treatment in many of the conditions associated with a flat affect.

 Social skills training

For people living with schizophrenia, social skills training can teach you how to express your emotions and body language appropriately for social situations.

Speech therapy

Since a monotone voice is often a sign of a flat affect, this type of training can help you express more emotion using different tones of voice.
