Psychology Mood Disorders

There are a lot of personality disorders, so many, sometimes, that we lose track. Personally, I know someone with schizophrenia, several people who have narcissist traits, autism, and ADHD that run in my own family, and even a few people diagnosed with borderline disorder. Disorders are a part of society, whether you like it or not. We may feel, at times, that those disorders cause people to act "strange" or "rude" or "manipulative". And this may be true, but if we understand the disorders, we can more easily guess where it came from and handle them more appropriately, too.

At trappe ud af psykofarmaka – eller psykiatrisk medicin – er ofte en sværere og mere krævende proces, end man forventer. Det gælder fx antidepressiv medicin, benzodiazepiner, antipsykotika og stemningsstabiliserende midler. Bogen er vigtig læsning for alle, der skal igennem et udtrapningsforløb, og for professionelle, der arbejder med mennesker, der er i udtrapning. Men dens nyskabende tilgang til psykofarmaka og psykisk lidelse gør også, at bogen kan læses bredere af enhver med interesse for psykisk lidelse, psykiatri og medicinfri behandling. Anders Sørensen, psykolog, ph.d.

Are you stuck in a cycle of anxious thoughts and avoidance behaviors? Do you suffer from panic attacks just thinking about your anxiety?

Anger may be intense, active, and impactive, but it is not inherently a bad thing. It does, however, present with a challenge: it is a strong, uncomfortable feeling that demands to be felt.
