Book Synopsis Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain by : David Moyer LCSW
Download or read book Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain written by David Moyer LCSW and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-02-10 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can nutrients successfully reduce and even stop symptoms of bipolar disorder and other mental disorders? Can Lyme disease treatment stop psychosis? Can antibodies to a milk protein contribute to mania? These are some of the questions answered in this revised edition of Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain. Licensed Clinical Social Worker Moyer updates his readers on his family’s journey by presenting research findings from the 12 intervening years since the book was first published. Part medical memoir, part medical detective story, the book describes the author’s four-generation bipolar family odyssey that led him to paths less traveled. Moyer describes his efforts to help his father and son, whose lives were severely disrupted by mood swings and psychotic episodes. While trying to cope with the consequences of the illness, he explores the role of genes, foods, vaccines, microbes and nutrients. He discusses multiple biological triggers and leading edge interventions for those suffering from bipolar and other mental disorders. He explores new ways to assess and treat what he now calls biobehavioral syndromes. The book gives readers a view into bipolar disorder through the writings of his father and his son. He critically examines assumptions and practices in the justice and mental health care system that adversely impact those called the mentally ill. He describes new ways for patients, family members, education, criminal justice and mental health care professionals to understand and respond to mental illness. The book was the first of what ultimately became The Transformation Trilogy, three books that collectively argue for a fundamental transformation in the response of society, and, most importantly, the mental health care industry, to victims of mental illness.
Book Synopsis 10 Ways to Keep Your Brain from Screaming Ouch! by : David Moyer
Download or read book 10 Ways to Keep Your Brain from Screaming Ouch! written by David Moyer and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-02-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whimsical? Yes. Serious? Yes. Practical? Yes! How does a person keep their brain happy and in good repair? This unorthodox, slightly irreverent book goes beyond the psychiatric labels and medications. It provides specific leading-edge interventions readers can implement in consultation with their health care providers to prevent and treat "screaming brains." Topics range from beets and the brain to bugs in the brain. In the final analysis, having a happy brain boils down to taking in what is good for it and avoiding that which is not good for it. In the eBook format, readers can access links that support the main ideas in the book. This is the second of three books in The Transformation Trilogy, a series that challenges the current definition of mental illness and envisions a future where people can find definitive treatment for underlying biomedical disorders. The first book in the series, a medical memoir entitled Too Good to be True? Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain, points out the limitations of current standard of care practice, using the author's family's history to illustrate. This book was revised in 2014 to an eBook simply called Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain. The third, Beyond Mental Illness, envisions major changes in the mental health care system of the future when people can transform their labels so they can begin the process of transforming their lives.
Book Synopsis Beyond Mental Illness by : David Moyer LCSW
Download or read book Beyond Mental Illness written by David Moyer LCSW and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-02-27 with total page 579 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can infections cause Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, Lou Gherig's Disease and mental illness? Yes, but not just the infections. The body's unique defense against these infections plays a role. This is but one of the startling facts uncovered in Moyer's third book, Beyond Mental Illness. Moyer is a retired licensed clinical social worker with a lifetime of professional experience dealing with mental illness. He has been free to follow the research independent of the cultural limitations that might inhibit other investigators. Moyer's bipolar odyssey began with a novel exploration of factors contributing to his father and son's bipolar disorder. His first book, Too Good to be True? Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain, addressed, among other things, the role of nutrients in treating mental disorders. In Beyond Mental Illness, that odyssey has now morphed into an exploration of factors contributing to mental illness as well as other physical disorders. In this book, Moyer provides a perspective beyond the standard DSM-5 diagnoses and even the very concept of mental illness. The stove-piped diagnoses dominating current medical practices are obsolete. While the medical establishment resists the need for major reformation, the public is beginning to demand science-based diagnoses and treatments. Here Moyer outlines deficiencies in current diagnostic systems that consign many to a lifetime of chronic illness. Their illnesses are not being properly diagnosed and treated. Since the publication of Beyond Mental Illness in 2014, a plethora of academic research in some of the best journals has validated some of his hypotheses. The key for more effective treatments is not to be found in drugs that mitigate downstream biological processes. The key is to identify and treat the diagnosable and treatable upstream biological processes.

Book Synopsis Beyond Mental Illness by : David Moyer
Download or read book Beyond Mental Illness written by David Moyer and published by Xlibris. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Mental Illness presents a bold vision for assessing and treating the mentally ill. It envisions a health-care system where, instead of assessing and treating behavior-based labels, professionals assess and treat biological markers. Part I, "How We Got Here," examines the evolution of the current diagnostic system and cultural factors that keep professionals and patients trapped. Part II, "Where We Are Going," gives examples of measurable, science-based and treatable biological markers. Diagnoses are based on these markers. Similar diagnoses could provide a foundation for more effective assessments and treatments. This is the final book in The Transformation Trilogy, a series of three books that address deficiencies and recommend solutions to the current mental health care delivery system. Portions of the book are highly technical. The other books in the trilogy include 10 Ways to Keep your Brain from Screaming "Ouch!" and Too good to be True? Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain, revised in 2014 into eBook format as Nutrients Quiet the Unquiet Brain,

Book excerpt: In this breakthrough guide to understanding, treating, and healing Attention Deficit Disorder, Dr. Gabor Maté, bestselling author of The Myth of Normal shares the latest information on: • The external factors that trigger ADD • How to create an environment that promotes health and healing • Ritalin and other drugs • ADD adults • And much more... Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) has quickly become a controversial topic in recent years. Whereas other books on the subject describe the condition as inherited, Dr. Maté believes that our social and emotional environments play a key role in both the cause of and cure for this condition. In Scattered, he describes the painful realities of ADD and its effect on children as well as on career and social paths in adults. While acknowledging that genetics may indeed play a part in predisposing a person toward ADD, Dr. Maté moves beyond that to focus on the things we can control: changes in environment, family dynamics, and parenting choices. He draws heavily on his own experience with the disorder, as both an ADD sufferer and the parent of three diagnosed children. Providing a thorough overview of ADD and its treatments, Scattered is essential and life-changing reading for the millions of ADD sufferers in North America today.
Book Synopsis My Age of Anxiety by : Scott Stossel
Download or read book My Age of Anxiety written by Scott Stossel and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A riveting, revelatory, and moving account of the author’s struggles with anxiety, and of the history of efforts by scientists, philosophers, and writers to understand the condition As recently as thirty-five years ago, anxiety did not exist as a diagnostic category. Today, it is the most common form of officially classified mental illness. Scott Stossel gracefully guides us across the terrain of an affliction that is pervasive yet too often misunderstood. Drawing on his own long-standing battle with anxiety, Stossel presents an astonishing history, at once intimate and authoritative, of the efforts to understand the condition from medical, cultural, philosophical, and experiential perspectives. He ranges from the earliest medical reports of Galen and Hippocrates, through later observations by Robert Burton and Søren Kierkegaard, to the investigations by great nineteenth-century scientists, such as Charles Darwin, William James, and Sigmund Freud, as they began to explore its sources and causes, to the latest research by neuroscientists and geneticists. Stossel reports on famous individuals who struggled with anxiety, as well as on the afflicted generations of his own family. His portrait of anxiety reveals not only the emotion’s myriad manifestations and the anguish anxiety produces but also the countless psychotherapies, medications, and other (often outlandish) treatments that have been developed to counteract it. Stossel vividly depicts anxiety’s human toll—its crippling impact, its devastating power to paralyze—while at the same time exploring how those who suffer from it find ways to manage and control it. My Age of Anxiety is learned and empathetic, humorous and inspirational, offering the reader great insight into the biological, cultural, and environmental factors that contribute to the affliction.

Birth of a New Brain vividly depicts her postpartum bipolar disorder, an unusual type of bipolar disorder and postpartum mood and anxiety disorder. During her childhood, Harwood grew up close to her father, a brilliant violinist in the Los Angeles Philharmonic who had bipolar disorder. She learned how bipolar disorder could ravage a family, but she never suspected that she’d become mentally ill—until her baby was born. Harwood wondered if mental health would always be out of her reach. From medications to electroconvulsive therapy, from “redwood forest baths” to bibliotherapy, she explored both traditional and unconventional methods of recovery—in-between harrowing psychiatric hospitalizations. Harwood reveals how she ultimately achieved a stable mood. She discovered that despite having a chronic mood disorder, a new, richer life is possible. Birth of a New Brain is the chronicle of one mother’s perseverance, offering hope and grounded advice for those battling mental illness.

With a new afterword • “REMARKABLE . . . inspirational in the true sense of the word.”—The New York Times Book Review This is the story of one man’s battle to pursue his dreams despite an often incapacitating brain disorder.
