The research report, which you have wisely chosen to buy is going to prove to be one of the best investments of your other-person OCPD challenged life! Many purchasers have praised this work for being written with the layman in mind. Yet, this book also has much to offer any mental health professional who recognizes the tremendous value of clear, direct, easily understandable language, unencumbered by extensive cross-references, annotations, and distracting technical notes. Instead, many helpful features of typography (as style and appearance of typeface) are used to highlight important points which can best be emphasized no other way. The book's sole intent is not to impress, but to communicate, educate, and free OCPD 'victims' as quickly, and as painlessly, as possible. The overwhelming majority of this book's readers attest to the effectiveness, and desirability, of the above presentation. (To request info on a future ebook version, email [email protected]). And, now, for a limited time only, purchasers of 'Escaping' will receive, with no obligation, absolutely free: 1) Consultation privileges direct with the author by email for six months!

(This new book is person-affirming, appreciative, and respectful so as not in the least way to offend or insult, but rather to lower defenses and invite reflection and consideration - opening the door to life-transforming 'Insight'. It is written directly for OCPD persons, making an excellent gift! Also, it was reviewed and approved by several of America's leading psychologists!) Simply purchase 'Escaping', then request the first two free bonuses thru the email address above. Later, should you buy 'OCPD's Only Hope', you may claim your rebate check, then. (You will be required to provide a 'code' to verify your purchases. The author will email you the location for you to obtain it.) Now, the important thing to know about 'Escaping' is that it has features and Resources that do not appear in any other research report, article, book, or audio/video presentation available today. Most importantly, it is geared to providing you with an abundance of hard-won, experimentally-gained, scientifically validated specialized knowledge, practical tools, well-thought-out strategies, and techniques proven to be effective against other's OCPD behaviors, in terms of lessoning their severity and curtailing their unwanted occurrence. Some of the unique features in this document are easy-to-read, text-complementing tables, listings, and sections on undealt-with subjects highly relevant to your OCPD situation. In addition, within are Affirmations, Declarations, a goals sheet, Meditations, Reminder (Reinforcement) cards, a resource tool box, and more, all designed as a program, a course of instruction, for your deliverance. In short, as a self-help manual, you will be shown what to do, and not to do around an OCPD person; what to say, and not to say, and why. It is all spelled out, all original. Use it wisely, and consistently, and you will assuredly reap the benefits of time well invested, in learning how to withstand, deflect, and disable a personality-disordered individual's misery-inflicting behavior - once for all! Best Wishes! Godspeed these life-liberating answers - to you! (PS: As of Sept. 2014, Mack's OCPD writings are being introduced and offered by New York's award-winning North Shore/Long Island Health System at their OCD Center as an adjunct to patients seeking education and/or treatment for OCPD.)

Book excerpt: A guide to ACT: the revolutionary mindfulness-based program for reducing stress, overcoming fear, and finding fulfilment – now updated. International bestseller, 'The Happiness Trap', has been published in over thirty countries and twenty-two languages. NOW UPDATED. Popular ideas about happiness are misleading, inaccurate, and are directly contributing to our current epidemic of stress, anxiety and depression. And unfortunately, popular psychological approaches are making it even worse! In this easy-to-read, practical and empowering self-help book, Dr Russ Harries, reveals how millions of people are unwittingly caught in the 'The Happiness Trap', where the more they strive for happiness the more they suffer in the long term. He then provides an effective means to escape through the insights and techniques of ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), a groundbreaking new approach based on mindfulness skills. By clarifying your values and developing mindfulness (a technique for living fully in the present moment), ACT helps you escape the happiness trap and find true satisfaction in life. Mindfulness skills are easy to learn and will rapidly and effectively help you to reduce stress, enhance performance, manage emotions, improve health, increase vitality, and generally change your life for the better. The book provides scientifically proven techniques to: reduce stress and worry; rise above fear, doubt and insecurity; handle painful thoughts and feelings far more effectively; break self-defeating habits; improve performance and find fulfilment in your work; build more satisfying relationships; and, create a rich, full and meaningful life.

This book was released on 2016-02-20 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Escaping Another''s OCPD Tyranny, a world-wide best-seller, historically available in one volume, is now available in two parts: This first part concerns essential foundational KNOWLEDGE about another''s OCPD mental illness to serve as a platform for present and subsequent indepth understanding, while the second part involves the fundamental OCPD survival PRACTICES (building upon Part 1 insights) which must be understood and implemented if the non-OCPD person is to ever find peace and freedom in the OCPD person''s presence. The advantage, here, is that of a deliberate separation of these two central purposes of the book to facilitate learning, and allow for greater focus relative to OCPD conceptual knowledge (which is critical, and where every seeker of deliverance from another''s OCPD tyranny must begin) on the one hand, to the Non-OCPD person''s practical ''escape'' techniques (of even greater value) on the other. Don''t be disempowered any longer! Help is here!Congratulations! YOU who are an earnest Seeker of Deliverance from the tyrannical control of another''s OCPD behaviors incessantly directed toward you. Behaviors which are making your life miserable (perhaps utterly so) and causing you to experience ongoing feelings of desperation, fear, anxiety, upset, anger, hopelessness, and/or helplessness. (If not a drastic lowering of your self-esteem, too.) Not to mention physical distress and discomfort, and erratic sleep, if that can be obtained, at all. It may even be that you are beginning to BELIEVE what the OCPD person is telling you about yourself as true after all (though clearly against your better judgment), due to their unrelenting never ceasing rhetoric of hurtful and dictatorial speech. And THAT unwelcome belief really IS distressing! Also, you may well be at your ''wits end'' in trying to find a way, ANY way, OUT, to flee from such horrific assaults against your personal liberties of choice and self-determination, and your dignity as a self-directing human being. Thankfully, in this newly-created volume, there is GOOD NEWS for YOU in spite of ALL the abuse and oppression and disrespect you have had to endure from this misguided and, yes, pitiable OCPD person. (For they, too, are victims of their own mental absurdities relative to their believed authority over you, whether their relationship to you is that of spouse, sibling, parent, relative, business associate, supervisor, authority figure, or acquaintance.) Yet, you may now take heart as the contents of this book will provide you with the REAL TRUTH, the Foundational Knowledge, about the severity and genuine dangers of OCPD, which many other researchers and authors are remiss, and/or reluctant, to acknowledge and address for fear of offending the OCPD person. But, without the FULL disclosure of the sobering TRUTH of this disorder, and of its often intractability, there can be NO hope for permanent deliverance to you, the Non-OCPD person, who are suffering under the torment of your OCPD ''captor''. It is just that serious. But, know that this book is gleaming with Real and Justifiable HOPE, with its tenor that of promising solid ANSWERS and SOLUTIONS to your present predicament, and sets the stage for your fully understanding the subsequent Safeguarding Life Principles and Freedom Preserving Practices that follow in Part 2 of 2. For which you will be greatly relieved to adopt! Lastly, for further helpful information, visit the web page of Escaping Another''s OCPD Tyranny! The Ultimate Survival Guide for the OCPD Besieged!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gary Trosclair explores the power of the driven personality and the positive outcomes those with obsessive compulsive personality disorder can achieve through a mindful program of harnessing the skills that can work, and altering those that serve no one. If you were born with a compulsive personality you may become rigid, controlling, and self-righteous. But you also may become productive, energetic, and conscientious. Same disposition, but very different ways of expressing it. What determines the difference? Some of the most successful and happy people in the world are compelled by powerful inner urges that are almost impossible to resist. They’re compulsive. They’re driven. But some people with a driven personality feel compelled by shame or insecurity to use their compulsive energy to prove their worth, and they lose control of the wheel of their own life. They become inflexible and critical perfectionists who need to wield control, and they lose the point of everything they do in the process. A healthy compulsive is one whose energy and talents for achievement are used consciously in the service of passion, love and purpose. An unhealthy compulsive is one whose energy and talents for achievement have been hijacked by fear and its henchman, anger. Both are driven: one by meaning, the other by dread. The Healthy Compulsive: Healing Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder and Taking the Wheel of the Driven Personality, will serve as the ultimate user’s guide for those with a driven personality, including those who have slid into obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD). Unlike OCD, which results in specific symptoms such as repetitive hand-washing and intrusive thoughts, OCPD permeates the entire personality and dramatically affects relationships. It also requires a different approach to healing. Both scientifically informed and practical, The Healthy Compulsive describes how compulsives get off track and outlines a four-step program to help them consciously cultivate the talents and passions that are the truly compelling sources of the driven personality. Drawing from his 25 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist and Jungian psychoanalyst, and his own personal experience as someone with a driven personality, Trosclair offers understanding, inspiring stories of change, and hope to compulsives and their partners about how to move to the healthy end of the compulsive spectrum.

Book excerpt: Now a major Channel 4 series Rose Cartwright has OCD, but not as you know it. Pure is the true story of her ten-year struggle with ‘Pure O’, a little-known form of the condition, which causes her to experience intrusive sexual thoughts of shocking intensity. It is a brave and frequently hilarious account of a woman who refused to give up, despite being undermined at every turn by her obsessions and enduring years of misdiagnosis and failed therapies. Eventually, the love of family and friends, and Rose’s own courage and sense of humour prevailed, inspiring this deeply felt and beautifully written memoir. At its core is a lesson for all of us: when it comes to being happy with who we are, there are no neat conclusions.

Book excerpt: Now significantly revised with over 70% new material, this is the authoritative presentation of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, which is taught and practiced around the world. IFS reveals how the subpersonalities or "parts" of each individual's psyche relate to each other like members of a family, and how--just as in a family--polarization among parts can lead to emotional suffering. IFS originator Richard Schwartz and master clinician Martha Sweezy explain core concepts and provide practical guidelines for implementing IFS with clients who are struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, addiction, and other behavioral problems. They also address strategies for treating families and couples. IFS therapy is listed in SAMHSA's National Registry of Evidence-Based Programs and Practices. New to This Edition *Extensively revised to reflect 25 years of conceptual refinement, expansion of IFS techniques, and a growing evidence base. *Chapters on the Self, the body and physical illness, the role of the therapist, specific clinical strategies, and couple therapy. *Enhanced clinical utility, with significantly more "how-to" details, case examples, and sample dialogues. *Quick-reference boxes summarizing key points, and end-of-chapter summaries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mental disorders such as depression and anxiety are increasingly common. Yet there are too few specialists to offer help to everyone, and negative attitudes to psychological problems and their treatment discourage people from seeking it. As a result, many people never receive help for these problems. The Oxford Guide to Low Intensity CBT Interventions marks a turning point in the delivery of psychological treatments for people with depression and anxiety. Until recently, the only form of psychological intervention available for patients with depression and anxiety was traditional one-to-one 60 minute session therapy - usually with private practitioners for those patients who could afford it. Now Low Intensity CBT Interventions are starting to revolutionize mental health care by providing cost effective psychological therapies which can reach the vast numbers of people with depression and anxiety who did not previously have access to effective psychological treatment. The Oxford Guide to Low Intensity CBT Interventions is the first book to provide a comprehensive guide to Low Intensity CBT interventions. It brings together researchers and clinicians from around the world who have led the way in developing evidence-based low intensity CBT treatments. It charts the plethora of new ways that evidence-based low intensity CBT can be delivered: for instance, guided self-help, groups, advice clinics, brief GP interventions, internet-based or book-based treatment and prevention programs, with supported provided by phone, email, internet, sms or face-to-face. These new treatments require new forms of service delivery, new ways of communicating, new forms of training and supervision, and the development of new workforces. They involve changing systems and routine practice, and adapting interventions to particular community contexts. The Oxford Guide to Low Intensity CBT Interventions is a state-of-the-art handbook, providing low intensity practitioners, supervisors, managers commissioners of services and politicians with a practical, easy-to-read guide - indispensible reading for those who wish to understand and anticipate future directions in health service provision and to broaden access to cost-effective evidence-based psychological therapies.

Concise and conversational, its highly readable tone will engage any reader who wants to learn the basics of psychological statistics.

The 9 Most Common Symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder 7 Common Therapy Methods for Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder How to Choose the Right Therapy Approach How to Overcome Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder in 4 Steps How to Find Your Escape Conclusion Topics covered include psychotherapy, hospitalization, medications, cognitive therapy, support groups, relaxation techniques, and aromatherapy.An excerpt from the book: Personality disorders are characterized by certain patterns of behavior that are not functional in the context of the society wherein the individual operates. These traits must have a negative impact on the personal and social aspects of an individual's life to be classified as a personality disorder. Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) is one such disorder. OCPD is generally defined as a preoccupation with the strict compliance of rigid guidelines and rules of behavior. It affects about 1 in every 100 people and is diagnosed twice as often in males as compared to females. OCPD usually becomes noticeable in early adulthood but it may be developed starting in early childhood to late adolescence. OCPD is commonly confused with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) due to the similarities in both names and symptoms. However, there are critical differences between OCPD and OCD that distinguishes the former from the latter. For example, an OCD patient is usually aware that the symptoms of their disorder are irrational, whereas those with OCPD often do not. In fact, while an OCD patient often feels a sense of guilt for the difficulties their disorder places on their loved ones and acquaintances, the OCPD patient often sees no problem with their behavior. Rather, OCPD patients believe that other people must conform to their ideas and practices as they do things the 'correct' way.

Book excerpt: Discover an empowering new way of understanding your multifaceted mind—and healing the many parts that make you who you are. Is there just one “you”? We’ve been taught to believe we have a single identity, and to feel fear or shame when we can’t control the inner voices that don’t match the ideal of who we think we should be. Yet Dr. Richard Schwartz’s research now challenges this “mono-mind” theory. “All of us are born with many sub-minds—or parts,” says Dr. Schwartz. “These parts are not imaginary or symbolic. They are individuals who exist as an internal family within us—and the key to health and happiness is to honor, understand, and love every part.” Dr. Schwartz’s Internal Family Systems (IFS) model has been transforming psychology for decades. With No Bad Parts, you’ll learn why IFS has been so effective in areas such as trauma recovery, addiction therapy, and depression treatment—and how this new understanding of consciousness has the potential to radically change our lives. Here you’ll explore: • The IFS revolution—how honoring and communicating with our parts changes our approach to mental wellness • Overturning the cultural, scientific, and spiritual assumptions that reinforce an outdated mono-mind model • The ego, the inner critic, the saboteur—making these often-maligned parts into powerful allies • Burdens—why our parts become distorted and stuck in childhood traumas and cultural beliefs • How IFS demonstrates human goodness by revealing that there are no bad parts • The Self—discover your wise, compassionate essence of goodness that is the source of healing and harmony • Exercises for mapping your parts, accessing the Self, working with a challenging protector, identifying each part’s triggers, and more IFS is a paradigm-changing model because it gives us a powerful approach for healing ourselves, our culture, and our planet. As Dr. Schwartz teaches, “Our parts can sometimes be disruptive or harmful, but once they’re unburdened, they return to their essential goodness. When we learn to love all our parts, we can learn to love all people—and that will contribute to healing the world.”

Book excerpt: Based on over twenty years of research, radically open dialectical behavior therapy (RO DBT) is a breakthrough, transdiagnostic approach for helping people suffering from extremely difficult-to-treat emotional overcontrol (OC) disorders, such as anorexia nervosa, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and treatment-resistant depression. Written by the founder of RO DBT, Thomas Lynch, this comprehensive volume outlines the core theories of RO DBT, and provides a framework for implementing RO DBT in individual therapy. While traditional dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) has shown tremendous success in treating people with emotion dysregulation, there have been few resources available for treating those with overcontrol disorders. OC has been linked to social isolation, aloof and distant relationships, cognitive rigidity, risk aversion, a strong need for structure, inhibited emotional expression, and hyper-perfectionism. And yet—perhaps due to the high value our society places on the capacity to delay gratification and inhibit public displays of destructive emotions and impulses—problems linked with OC have received little attention or been misunderstood. Indeed, people with OC are often considered highly successful by others, even as they suffer silently and alone. RO DBT is based on the premise that psychological well-being involves the confluence of three factors: receptivity, flexibility, and social-connectedness. RO DBT addresses each of these important factors, and is the first treatment in the world to prioritize social-signaling as the primary mechanism of change based on a transdiagnostic, neuroregulatory model linking the communicative function of human emotions to the establishment of social connectedness and well-being. As such, RO DBT is an invaluable resource for treating an array of disorders that center around overcontrol and a lack of social connectedness—such as anorexia nervosa, chronic depression, postpartum depression, treatment-resistant anxiety disorders, autism spectrum disorders, as well as personality disorders such as avoidant, dependent, obsessive-compulsive, and paranoid personality disorder. Written for mental health professionals, professors, or simply those interested in behavioral health, this seminal book—along with its companion, The Skills Training Manual for Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (available separately)—provides everything you need to understand and implement this exciting new treatment in individual therapy—including theory, history, research, ongoing studies, clinical examples, and future directions.

Book excerpt: Do antidepressants work? Of course -- everyone knows it. Like his colleagues, Irving Kirsch, a researcher and clinical psychologist, for years referred patients to psychiatrists to have their depression treated with drugs before deciding to investigate for himself just how effective the drugs actually were. Over the course of the past fifteen years, however, Kirsch's research -- a thorough analysis of decades of Food and Drug Administration data -- has demonstrated that what everyone knew about antidepressants was wrong. Instead of treating depression with drugs, we've been treating it with suggestion. The Emperor's New Drugs makes an overwhelming case that what had seemed a cornerstone of psychiatric treatment is little more than a faulty consensus. But Kirsch does more than just criticize: he offers a path society can follow so that we stop popping pills and start proper treatment for depression.

Book excerpt: For many of us, perfectionism can bring life's most desired rewards. But when the obsessive need for perfection and control gets in the way of our professional and emotional lives, the cost becomes too high. Although many of us appear cool and confident on the outside, inside we are in emotional turmoil, trying to satisfy everyone, attempting to direct the future, and feeling that we are failing. In TOO PERFECT, Dr. Allan Mallinger draws on twenty years of research and observations from his private practice to show how perfectionism can sap energy, complicate even the simplest decisions, and take the enjoyment out of life. For workaholics or neat freaks, for anyone who fears change or making mistakes, needs rigid rules, is excessively frugal or obstinate, TOO PERFECT offers revealing self-tests, fascinating case histories, and practical strategies to help us overcome obsessiveness and reclaim our right to happiness.
