Social Disorders

Imagine this: You’re replaying a recent argument in your head. Was it your fault? Did you say the wrong thing? What does it mean for the future? The more you try to find answers, the more distant your partner seems. Sounds familiar, right? Overthinking in relationships can feel like carrying an invisible weight that drains the joy out of love. But what if you could silence that anxious voice, trust your partner, and finally enjoy the connection you deserve?

In the early 1960s, Massachusetts writer and homemaker Clara Park and her husband took their three-year-old daughter, Jessy, to a specialist after noticing that she avoided connection with others. Following the conventional wisdom of the time, the psychiatrist diagnosed Jessy with autism and blamed Clara for Jessy’s isolation. Experts claimed Clara was the prototypical “refrigerator mother,” a cold, intellectual parent who starved her children of the natural affection they needed to develop properly.

Under the new rules of social media, we are not what we eat, but rather what others believe we eat. The 21st century has marked the emergence of social media networking sites. They have become a major part of our lives: we can't imagine our lives without them, and it's unrealistic to assume that's even possible. Platforms like Twitter and Facebook haven't been around long, but they are already having far-reaching impacts on our health and wellbeing.

Franz Ruppert konzentriert sich in diesem Buch auf einen Aspekt, der in den Trauma-Debatten oft zu kurz kommt: Es ist die Täter-Opfer-Dynamik, die zu einer Endlosschleife der seelischen Verletzungen führt. Eltern, die als Kinder nicht gewollt und nicht vor Gewalt geschützt wurden, werden meist selbst zu Tätern an ihren eigenen Kindern und reinszenieren unbewusst ihre eigenen Erlebnisse. Ganze Gesellschaften können auf diese Weise trauma-assoziiert sein und offen oder verdeckt Gewalt ausüben.

In this audiobook, Stacey Dooley opens up the conversation about mental health in young people, to challenge the stigma and stereotypes around it.

Wie du Menschen hilfst, ohne dich bei dabei selbst schlecht zu fühlen; empath zu sein, bedeutet, die Fähigkeit zu besitzen, sich in anderen hineinzuspüren. Die Emotionen der anderen werden zu den eigenen. Aber wenn diese Charaktereigenschaften nur noch dafür sorgen, ständig überwältigt oder die Zielscheibe von Manipulatoren zu sein, ist es Zeit, die Notbremse zu ziehen. Die gute Nachricht: Die Emotionen kontrollieren zu lernen und sich nicht mehr über Gebühr von den Problemen anderer mitreißen zu lassen, lässt sich erlernen.

In Possessed, Rebecca R. Falkoff asks how hoarding - once a paradigm of economic rationality - came to be defined as a mental illness. Hoarding is unique among the disorders included in the American Psychiatric Association's DSM-5 because its diagnosis requires the existence of a material entity: the hoard. Possessed therefore considers the hoard as an aesthetic object produced by clashing perspectives about the meaning or value of objects.

David W. Powell enlisted for a tour of duty in April 1966 with the US Marines after receiving an imminent draft notice.

David's journey from naive civilian to battle-hardened combat veteran shows us all how fragile our humanity really is.

Maude Julien's parents were fanatics who believed it was their sacred duty to turn her into the ultimate survivor - raising her in isolation, tyrannizing her childhood, and subjecting her to endless drills designed to "eliminate weakness". Maude learned to hold an electric fence for minutes without flinching and to sit perfectly still in a rat-infested cellar all night long (her mother sewed bells onto her clothes that would give her away if she moved). She endured a life without heat, hot water, adequate food, friendship, or any kind of affectionate treatment.
