I Am Not Sick, I Don't Need Help!: How to Help Someone with Mental Illness Accept Treatment. 10th Anniversary Edition

Narrated by Dr. Amador, this abridged version includes part one and part two (10 chapters total) of the book, and specifically focuses on anosognosia and LEAP. Dr. Amador’s research on poor insight was inspired by his attempts to help his brother, Henry, who developed schizophrenia, accept treatment. Like tens of millions of others diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, Henry did not believe he was ill. Through lessons learned from thousands of LEAP seminar participants, Dr. Amador helps listeners quickly and effectively use the LEAP method to help someone accept treatment. I Am Not Sick, I Don’t Need Help! is not just a reference for mental health practitioners and law enforcement, it also is a must-have guide for family members whose loved ones are battling mental illness. Listen and learn as have hundreds of thousands of others...to LEAP - listen, empathize, agree, and partner - and help your patients and loved ones accept the treatment they need.
