Psykiatrisk sygepleje

Bagsidetekst:”Jeg var glad og sorgløs. Jeg havde store drømme. Jeg var parat til at kaste mig over hele verden. Jeg var fuld af eventyrlyst, energi og begejstring for livet. Jeg var opsat på at gøre mit allerbedste indenfor alt, hvad jeg foretog mig. Jeg var ung, og jeg var lykkelig. Jeg havde relativt let ved næsten alt, hvad jeg foretog mig, så jeg satte ingen grænser for mig selv. Alting syntes muligt.”Men det fortsætter ikke. Alt forandrer sig på et øjeblik. Eventyrlysten, energien og begejstringen for livet forsvinder som dug for solen.Mit liv kollapser.

The extraordinary ways the brain can misfire'Fascinating and compassionate' Horatio Clare The King of France ? thinking he was made of glass ? was terrified he might shatter…and he wasn't alone. After the Emperor met his end at Waterloo, an epidemic of Napoleons piled into France's asylums. Throughout the nineteenth century, dozens of middle-aged women tried to convince their physicians that they were, in fact, dead. For centuries we've dismissed delusions as something for doctors to sort out behind locked doors. But delusions are more than just bizarre quirks ? they hold the key to collective anxieties and traumas. In this groundbreaking history, Victoria Shepherd uncovers stories of delusions from medieval times to the present day and implores us to identify reason in apparent madness.

Clinical Topics in Teaching Psychiatry draws on classic papers previously published in BJPsych Advances, alongside newly commissioned chapters, to provide a rich overview of teaching and learning as applied to psychiatry. Written by clinicians, professors and lecturers, the book covers the direct teaching of the specialty through to educational management, coaching and mentoring.

Accessible throughout, the book provides much-needed guidance for busy clinicians, primarily psychiatrists, who are acting as trainers.

Applying Person-centred Care in Mental Health focuses on the environment of inpatient mental health units. Here, a patient's actions are often understood through reference to their illness; if they disagree with staff they lack insight or are aggressive, if they seek independence they are uncooperative and non-compliant, if they wish to be alone they are seen as withdrawn. Imagine being this patient, faced with situations where you are told your reality is not right, that you are a different person to who you think you are and that you have a mental disorder and need treatment, even though you do not think so. Imagine the impact this clash of values could have on you, where your values are routinely undermined, ignored, or subsumed within a medical paradigm. This contemporary and unique guide will be valuable for all staff working with people with a mental illness. Its focus is on inpatient units, however it also applies to staff working in the community. The guide provides a broad understanding of values-based practice and how to work with people's values from a person-centred perspective. Developed by K.W.M. Fulford, values-based practice ensures that the person, as a patient, has their perspective acknowledged and considered in any decisions or actions taken. This book utilises a 10 principle decision-making framework to guide and enable clinicians to reflect on their engagement and clinical decisions. Using exercises and practice scenarios, values used in clinical practice, how they present in different situations and how they influence decision making are examined. It will assist you to critique and monitor your practice in order to maintain best care according to the patient's perspective.

DescriptionThis is the continuing story of Andrew Aldred as he tries to find a job after being on sickness benefit for a long time and the way he sees the world. Andrew Aldred is a Falklands veteran and has been in secure mental hospital for twelve years. He has been out of hospital for ten years and come off a home office section. He remains in a relationship with his ex-wife which is very important to him and retains contact with his own family after stabbing his father twenty years ago.About the AuthorI have been in Mental Health Services since 1985, when I had a huge mental breakdown after serving in the Falklands with the army. Since then my life has been something of a rollercoaster of mental illness until meeting my wife Jane seven years ago.I have been in and out of hospital from 1985 until 2009. I had an illness which I attributed to my father and resulted in me stabbing him in 1997 and going to the Edenfield Unit in Prestwich Hospital for 6 years. This is when I started to write poetry to keep myself sane and give me something to focus on.

Livet med og efter bipolar lidelse er er en biografisk selvhjælpsbog skrevet af Sara Vafai-Blom.Mød seks mennesker, der alle på forskellig vis er kommet sig fra bipolar affektiv sindslidelse.

NY CASEBOG MED SYGDOMSHISTORIER INDEN FOR PSYKIATRIENPsykiatriske cases gennemgår med en klinisk, case-baseret tankegang de hyppigste og vigtigste scenarier inden for voksen-, børne- og ungdomspsykiatrien. Sygdomshistorierne er tilpasset medicinstuderende og helt unge læger, og de beskriver situationer, man vil kunne møde som studerende i klinik, som lægevikar eller som KBU-læge i psykiatri, almen praksis eller den fælles akutmodtagelse – og læseren er selv hovedpersonen.Psykiatriske cases kan med fordel anvendes som supplement til en psykiatrisk lærebog for at øve den kliniske tankegang, hvor differentialdiagnostik, udredning og behandling følges op af relevant optagelse af anamnese, valg af undersøgelser og kommunikation med patienten.Bogen er skrevet af Mikkel Højland, Christina Blanner Wagner og Julie Eg Frøkjær.

"De vidste jo ikke, at jeg var syg. De troede bare, jeg var besværlig." Min elskede psykose er en spændingsfyldt roman, der udmærker sig ved at sætte et nyt perspektiv på et ellers nok så fortærsket emne som psykisk sygdom og psykoser, og på, hvordan virkeligheden opfattes af det psykotiske menneske. Romanens kvindelige jegfortæller er på fortælletidspunktet diagnosticeret maniodepressiv med forskellige personlighedsforstyrrelser. Samtidig er hun sygeplejerske. Hun er raget uklar med SIND, Landsforeningen for psykisk sundhed, i en debat om aktiv dødshjælp til psykisk syge; en ting, som hun er ivrig fortaler for. Denne konflikt og jegfortællerens egne lidelser munder tilsammen ud i, at hun beslutter sig for at offentliggøre og iscenesætte sit eget selvmord ved under mediernes bevågenhed at springe ud fra Rundetårn. Det er hér, læseren møder hende: i den alleresidste tid inden det altafgørende spring. Min elskede psykose tematiserer, hvordan man kan definere og afgrænse psykosebegrebet, samt hvor forskelligartede karakterer, en psykose kan have. For fortælleren begynder de synlige tegn på psykose at vise sig i form af en besættelse af en mandlig kollega og det forvrængede virkelighedsbillede, den medfører. Læseren mindes om, at psykisk sygdom kan være en særdeles svær størrelse at definere, og Min elskede psykose fremstår som et friskt pust til debatten om, hvornår et menneske kan regnes for at være i stand til at kunne råde over sin egen død.
