Product: Schizophrenia: The - Schizophrenic - Laid Bare: Psychosis, Paranoid Schizophrenia, Split Personality (Mental Illness, Bipolar, Schizoaffective, Schizophrenia ... Mental Health, Personality Disorder)
Description: The first thing many people think of when they hear the word schizophrenia is of a violent criminal with two, or maybe even more personalities. They will probably imagine someone walking down the street talking to themselves, ready to strike out at a moment’s notice.

In fact, approximately one percent of the population are schizophrenics and very few of these have violent tendencies. They can, however, have psychotic episodes in which they experience hallucinations and delude themselves into believing something which could not possibly be real. These episodes can be terrifying to witness but are unlikely to involve any violence; they can be just as terrifying for the person suffering with schizophrenia.

Understanding the disorder will enable people to support those who suffer from the disorder and will instil compassion instead of fear.

This book will help anyone to understand the symptoms and issues facing someone with schizophrenia and how they can be treated:

Learn what schizophrenia actually is.

Discover the history of the disorder and the causes, as well as the early warning signs.

Explore and understand the key traits which schizophrenics display.

Understand the different types of schizophrenia and the treatment prospects for this disorder.

Delve into the myth that Split personality or multiple personalities disorders are the same as schizophrenia and how he two disorders are related.

Gain an insight into what psychosis is and how this relates to the schizophrenic.
Find out a range of useful tips to help someone suffering from schizophrenia and how best to support them and yourself.

Use this book to enlighten yourself and your friends; your understanding will enable you to offer compassion and support to a sufferer, instead of fear and anger. Just think how grateful you would be for that if it was you struggling with the effects of schizophrenia.

Product: Becoming One: A Story of Triumph Over Dissociative Identity Disorder
Description: Becoming One: A Story of Triumph Over Dissociative Identity Disorder

This is the 2014 ebook edition of the 1997 paperback Becoming One: A Story of Triumph Over Multiple Personality Disorder, ISBN 978-0962387982, by Sarah E. Olson. It includes a 2014 Addendum, a new Foreword by Howard Asher Psy.D, and a new linked resources page.

Two little girls, the author and her sister, were routinely terrorized and assaulted over a period of years by a family friend. One grew up closed and withdrawn, the other angry, self-destructive, and dissociated. Most painful of all, their common suffering resulted in estrangement from each other. Becoming One began as Sarah Olson's attempt to provide a written account of her memories for her sister as a means of reconciliation and healing.

Becoming One documents Sarah's four-year process of discovery and recovery from Dissociative Identity Disorder. Utilizing letters she wrote to her therapist, Howard Asher, Psy.D, and transcripts from key audiotaped therapy sessions, Sarah created a book which offers a model of healing and hope to survivors of childhood sexual abuse.

The author's courage and generosity in candidly sharing her remarkable experiences provides important insights into the world of dissociation. This book is a highly personal look into an individual life, the dynamics of a troubled family, and the healing power of the therapeutic process.

Praise for Becoming One (from the 1997 edition, ISBN 978-0962387982, format: paperback):

"Sarah Olson has written a fascinating account of her amazing healing journey and the mind's creative capacity to surmount unimaginable horror. Everyone can benefit from this inspiring book." ~ Lynne D. Finney, J.D., M.S.W., Author of Reach for the Rainbow: Advanced Healing for Survivors of Sexual Abuse

"Becoming One is a hopeful book which both dignifies people with Dissociative Identity Disorder, and sensitizes the rest of us to what that means and what can be done. Highly recommended." ~ Midwest Book Review

"Piecing Sarah back together is like piecing a puzzle or mosaic together. Once all the pieces are in place, you are left with a beautiful image. Sterling work." ~ BeatleBangs1964 Vine Voice

"This book gives incredible insight into the work required by both the therapist and the patient with DID. ... I recommend Becoming One for both therapists and for those who continue to suffer from Dissociative Identity Disorder." ~ Meowzer

"Wonderful book for a reference for my classes." ~ Wild Blue

"In process myself and working through much of what Sarah describes, I could only say that I feel validated and believed, and perhaps for the first time, understood, by someone else." ~ raysemma

Product: Being of Two Minds: The Vertical Split in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy
Description: From the unfaithful husband to the binge eater, from the secret cross-dresser to the pilferer of worthless items, there are those who seem to live two lives, to be divided selves, to be literally of two minds. This division or "vertical split" appears in a person at odds with himself, a person who puzzles over, and even heartily dislikes, that parallel person who behaves in so repugnant a manner. In Being of Two Minds, Arnold Goldberg provides trenchant insight into such divided minds - their origins, their appearances, and their treatment.
Goldberg's inquiry into divided minds leads to a return to the psychoanalytic concept of disavowal, which forms the basis of the vertical split. Goldberg explores the developmental circumstances that tend to a reliance on disavowal, provides numerous examples of the emergence of disavowal in the treatment situation, and considers the therapeutic approaches through which disavowal may be addressed. He is especially perceptive in discussing the manner in which the therapist's own tendency to disavow may collusively interact with that of the patient.
Goldberg considers the full range of splits to which disavowal gives rise, from circumscribed instances of dissociation to the much-debated multiple personality disorders. He gives special attention to the role of the vertical split in patients with behavior disorders; here his thoughtful insights point to a treatment approach that significantly differs both from the simple ascription of a 'self disorder' and from the usual pedagogical emphasis on issues of self-control and/or punishment. As Goldberg shows, the repugnance felt by many therapists for offensive behaviors emanating from the patient's parallel self are frequently shared by the patient, who commonly despises misbehavior that he is unable to understand. Being of Two Minds begins to formulate just such understanding, to the great benefit of patient and therapist alike.

Product: Switching Time: A Doctor's Harrowing Story of Treating a Woman with 17 Personalities
Description: Switching Time is the first story centering on multiple personality disorder to be told by the treating physician. It is the incredible saga of a young woman stranded in unimaginable darkness who, in order to survive, created 17 different versions of herself.

In 1989, Karen Overhill walked into the office of psychiatrist Richard Baer complaining of depression. She poured out a litany of complaints, but in the disengaged way of someone who has experienced a terrible trauma. Slowly, Baer began to peel back the layers, eventually learning that Karen had been the victim of childhood sexual abuse. As time passed, though, his patient worsened and began to talk continually of suicide. Details of her abuse accumulated until he saw, via hypnosis, the true dimension of what Karen had suffered.

Baer was at a loss to explain Karen's sanity, precarious though it was, until he received a letter from a little girl, Claire. One by one, Karen's "alters" began showing themselves: men, women, young boys, a toddler, black, white, vicious, nurturing, prim, licentious. And their "stepping out" confronted Baer with the challenge of a lifetime. Somehow, to save Karen, he would have to gain the trust of her alters in order to destroy them.

Product: Wounded Personalities: A Practical Guide to Understanding Personality Disorders
Description: “It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.” ― Frederick Douglass

This book focuses on an area in abnormal psychology known as “personality disorders.” In both psychology and psychiatry, personality disorders are a special kind of mental health condition. This book takes a sensitive thoughtful approach to the subject of personality disorders.

Psychiatrists use terms such as narcissist, borderline, schizoid, and histrionic to describe types of dysfunctional human personalities. What do these terms mean and what distinguishes these individuals from the rest of us?

This book explores these personality types, and others, in term of behaviors, traits, and their thought processes. In addition, it seeks to explain the possible roots of these unique disorders.

After reading this book, it is my sincere hope that the reader will walk away with a genuine understanding of borderline personality, narcissistic personality, histrionic personality, avoidant personality, schizoid personality disorder, dependent personality, and codependent personality. It is also my hope that for those individuals who suffer with these particular disorders this book might be a possible first step in the “healing process.”

Despite what conventional psychiatry suggests about the long-term prognosis for these disorders some degree of healing is always possible in determined insightful individuals

In addition, while many will argue the precise cause of personality disorders, the connection between childhood neglect/abuse and later developing a wounded or damaged personality seems undeniable.
