Book excerpt: Yukio Ishizuka, a Harvard-trained psychiatrist, has developed and tested, a ground breaking, highly effective new approach, Lifetrack Therapy for treatment of psychiatric symptoms without drugs, in his 40 years of successful independent private practice in New York. The goal of Lifetrack therapy is to dramatically improve one’s threshold of tolerance of stress (from life challenges) through 'Breakthrough Intimacy' - closeness between committed couples far greater than their previous maximum experience - which can predictably transform couples' personalities, eliminating psychiatric symptoms such as anxiety, anger, physical-symptoms, depression, and symptoms of borderline personality disorder, without medications and often within 6 months. The process typically results in dramatic improvements in personal sense of wellbeing and sense of fulfillment at work. Each patient and his/her partner performs daily self-rating in 41 parameters, which provide accurate and comprehensive data on dynamic daily changes in state of mind and subtle changes in personality, which is visualized via Internet in 26 informative graphs. These graphs are analyzed and interpreted during each (typically weekly) session, encouraging the couple to learn how to think, feel, and act in such ways that their closeness would improve far beyond their previous maximum experience, provoking and overcoming waves of defense (symptoms) until it becomes weakened by exhaustion and eventually disappear. The amazing results of Lifetrack therapy supports an alternative understanding of psychiatric distress as natural and inevitable consequence of interaction between one's personality and life challenges, offering an alternative and effective treatment of personality itself without drugs. This book takes you through actual case examples through which Dr. Ishizuka discovered the amazing secrets.
