The Unfragile Mind: A Physician's Call for Restoring Hope and Humanity to Mental Health Care - Couverture rigide
Synopsis
According to the National Institute for Mental Health, over fifty-nine million adults and nearly a fifth of adolescents in the US have been diagnosed with some form of mental illness, with about 50 percent receiving treatment. But for a population that’s experienced an explosion of labeling and diagnoses over the last ten years, there remains a chasm between our cultural conversations about mental health and its real-life treatment by medical practitioners—and the drug and insurance companies who rule them.Drawing on thirty years of medical experience, Dr. Gavin Francis delves into the tangled history of psychiatry and the problems that he addresses daily in his patients' lives: mood disorders, trauma, anxiety, and addiction. Expertly reckoning with the historical treatment of mental illness and how it has evolved to reflect our current medical climate, Dr. Francis takes into consideration the multitude of roadblocks for those with mental health challenges, made worse by a system that seeks to benefit corporations, not patients.

The Unfragile Mind (Hardcover)
Vendeur : Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, Etats-Unis
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. According to the National Institute for Mental Health, over fifty-nine million adults and nearly a fifth of adolescents in the US have been diagnosed with some form of mental illness, with about 50 percent receiving treatment. But the explosion in diagnoses over the last ten years may be doing more harm than good: encouraging patients to define their identities in terms of their deficits, contributing to the overprescribing of pharmaceutical drugs, and saddling a generation with constricting labels that can linger long after symptoms have resolved. Drawing on thirty years of medical experience, Dr. Gavin Francis, a general practitioner, delves with subtle nuance into the tangled history of psychiatry and the problems that he addresses daily in his patients lives: mood disorders, trauma, anxiety, and addiction. Expertly reckoning with the historical treatment of mental illness and todays realities, Dr. Francis examines how mental health care has evolvedand how a system built on diagnosing illness and prescribing medication too often forces patients into diagnostic boxes, with labels that too often become self-fulfilling prophecies. Including case studies and conversations with therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists, Dr. Francis takes a multifaceted approach to the constantly shifting landscape of mental health to argue that the mind, far from being something rigid and fragile, is in fact dynamic and adaptive, best treated with compassion, flexibility, and curiosity. The Unfragile Mind blends experience, history, and contemporary perspectives in a comprehensive assessment of how we can better understandand navigatecommon but often invisible illnesses. A timely, layered approach to the evolution of our current mental health climatefrom a medical practitioner and internationally acclaimed authorthat makes the case for navigating a worldwide issue with compassion and curiosity Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
