Bogen om Systemstress er en selvhjælpsbog skrevet af socialrådgiver, Karin B Nissen.Systemstress er en belastningsreaktion, der kan opstå i samarbejdet med det offentlige. Det kaldes systemstress, fordi det er i mødet med systemet, at belastningen opstår. Vi oplever at blive overbelastede, når vi ikke har ressourcerne til at imødekomme de krav, systemet stiller til os. Risikoen for at udvikle det kan nedbringes, og er det allerede opstået, kan det bearbejdes, i en vekselvirkning mellem tre elementer: Systemets krav. Din reaktion. Indre og ydre ressourcer.Det er vigtigt at slå fast, at ikke alle oplever systemstress i mødet med det offentlige, men mange gør desværre. I denne bog får du viden om og redskaber til at forebygge og håndtere systemstress.

Mange unge mennesker mistrives i det danske samfund. Store trivselsundersøgelser viser, at omkring 30 % af unge mennesker i Danmark har problemer med mistrivsel og lider bl.a. af mavepine, stress, tristhed, søvnproblemer, angst og depression. Denne bog er et bidrag til, hvordan vi kan hjælpe vores unge mennesker til at håndtere og takle de udfordringer og krav, de møder i livet.Bogen indeholder et mentaltræningsprogram, der er rettet mod at styrke den unges positive udvikling, motivation og selvværd, og strategier til at kontrollere følelser gennem mentaltræning.Programmet bygger på metoder og teorier inden for positiv psykologi og tager udgangspunkt i mental robusthed og resiliens, der handler om evnen til at komme sig over modgang i livet.Teorier og metoder beskrives og forklares i første del af bogen. I anden del af bogen præsenteres det mentale træningsprogram, der ved hjælp af kognitiv adfærdsterapi forsøger at ændre de unges tænkesæt, så de lærer at finde muligheder og alternative tanker frem for underminerende tanker om dem selv. Vigtige elementer i arbejdet, hvor der opnås god effekt af mentaltræningen, er relationer og sociale færdigheder, selvværd og selvindsigt, motivation og faglig udvikling, håb og mindfulness.Bogen henvender sig til alle, der til daglig arbejder eller beskæftiger sig med unge mennesker, fx lærere, pædagoger, psykologer, familiebehandlere og socialrådgivere. Dernæst til forældre, der oplever at have børn, der mistrives og som har behov for at få viden og konkrete metoder til, hvordan de kan hjælpe og støtte deres børn.Om forfatterneLine Spicker er uddannet sygeplejerske, lærer og master i positiv psykologi.

“En Sindssygt God Mor” af Mia Maja Holst Manstrup er den sande, barske og filterløse skildring af en fødselspsykoses tilblivelse; den farligste og sjældneste efterfødselsreaktion, en kvinde kan få. Tilstanden rammer en promille af fødende, og de færreste stifter derfor bekendtskab med den – dette værende som privatperson eller fagperson. Derfor bliver selve sygdommen ikke forfatterens største udfordring – det gør derimod det etablerede psykiatriske system. Et system, som bygger på psykofarmaka og overvågning, og som bliver sat fuldstændig til vægs, når en nybagt mor, med blod ned af benene og mælk løbende fra brysterne, bliver indlagt i dets varetægt. Første del af bogen drejer sig om forfatterens vej fra at være sund, rask og helt gennemsnitlig, til at krakelere totalt efter en ellers vellykket fødsel, på baggrund af en uges ophold på barselsgangen under stærkt ubehagelige vilkår. Forfatteren inviterer indenfor i et tiltagende sygt sind, i takt med at begivenhederne udspiller sig, og indtil hun indlægges i psykiatrien. Den psykiatri, der skulle have været redningen for et bristet sind, men som bliver det stik modsatte. I forfatterens senere møde med andre familier, der har oplevet fødselspsykoser, viser oplevelsen af utilstrækkelighed i sundhedssystemet og psykiatrien sig at være langt fra enestående. Andre kvinders vidnesbyrd om fejlbehandling, og at de og deres familier er blevet tabt på gulvet, klinger uhyggeligt genkendeligt. Tre af disse vidnesbyrd bliver, foruden forfatterens eget, også bragt i bogen – kortere, men ikke mindre chokerende, fortalt.

Det vil ikke altid være sommer – et brud på anoreksiens lænker er skrevet af Josefine Kleis-Olsen. Den er skrevet fra et hudløst ærligt perspektiv, der i øjenhøjde skaber et troværdigt billede af et sygt menneskesind. Bogen beskriver, hvordan et utal af psykiske belastninger såsom mobning og overgreb kan påvirke et menneske. Den bryder tabuet om psykisk sygdom og skaber genkendelighed og håb for de syge og deres pårørende.Det var en konstant krig. Mit liv var en krig. Det lille forsvar, som jeg kaldte for mine tropper, var nedlagt. Fuldstændig sønderknust på slagmarken. Fjenden stod og kiggede på de faldne soldater, som var de døde fluer på en kogende varm sommerdag. Tilbage stod der et nøgent land. Et territorium klar til at blive erobret. Det var det, jeg var: klar til at blive erobret af fjenden. En fjende kendt som anoreksi, den mest usympatiske, løgnagtige og livsfarlige fjende, som jeg nogensinde har mødt.Lige som jeg troede, at jeg havde grebet om dæmonen, vendte den og drejede sig, så den blot blev endnu mere terroriserende. Endnu mere krigerisk. Jeg var træt, og jeg følte mig fuldstændig ødelagt indeni.

Stadig flere børn og unge gennemgår et eller flere forløb i psykiatrien og får stillet diagnoser som depression, angst, ADHD eller spiseforstyrrelser.Børne- og ungdomspsykiatriens funktion er at undersøge og behandle børn og unge med psykiske lidelser. Det er en kompleks institution, som for børn og unge samt deres forældre kan forekomme uoverskuelig, overvældende og forvirrende. Denne bog kan forhåbentlig være dem en hjælp.Forfatteren gennemgår konkret og letforståeligt det børne- og ungdomspsykiatriske forløb fra den første bekymring opstår hos forældrene til udredningen afsluttes, behandlingen påbegyndes, og kommunen overtager.Bogen er primært tilegnet forældrene, mener derudover også henvendt til socialrådgivere, PPR-ansatte, skolelærere og andre beslægtede faggrupper.Karsten Gjessing Jensen er speciallæge i børne- og ungdomspsykiatri, ph.d. og ekstern lektor ved Institut for Psykologi, Københavns Universitet.

Det her er bagsiden af mine digte, men også bagsiden af nutidens samfund. Vi danskere er nemlig ramt af en folkesygdom, der gør livet ondt. Hver tiende dansker er ramt af mørket, selvom lyset det er tændt. Der er i dagens Danmark 580.000 mennesker, der er ramt af en psykisk lidelse. Fra depression og angst, til skizofreni samt en masse sammensatte bogstaver, der gør ondt indeni. Hver tiende gravide bliver også ramt af en depression. Er det mon det danske samfund, der mangler en diagnose? Jeg er èn af de mange danskere, der er ramt. Gennem de sidste 2 år, har jeg prøvet at digte mig ud af min depression. Jeg ved, jeg er på rette vej, selv om frygten for mørket altid vil være i mig. Men mest af alt, så håber jeg at kunne hjælpe andre. Det kræver dog, at du læser min bog og prøver at forstå, at mørket og dæmonerne også kan sætte dit liv i stå.

Bogen henvender sig til alle der beskæftiger sig med psykologisk hjælpearbejde og som er interesseret i at uddanne sig til krisehjælper.Sorg, angst, krise lærer dig blandt andet:- at forstå hvor forskelligt mennesker tænker og hvilken betydning det har for vores kommunikation- at øge evnen til at skabe tillid til andre og evnen til at forstå andre; at stille de rigtige spørgsmål- at forbedre dine kommunikationsevner; at forstå og anvende dit kropssprog- at gennemføre en krisesamtale på en betryggende måde- at opnå indflydelse.

Når der sker noget, som er for overvældende til at vi kan forholde os til det, afsondres det. Uden for tid og rum. I en tidslomme. Hvor indtryk fra oplevelsen bliver lagret i rå form. Sindets automatiske beskyttelsesmekanismer sørger til stadighed for, at den slags erindringer unddrager sig vores opmærksomhed. De findes som kropslige og følelsesmæssige aftryk, der vedvarende viser sig gennem den lidelse, det nødsignal, der udstråler fra dem. En begivenhed, der er aflejret i den form kaldes et traume. Det positive ved, at sindet fraspalter og afsondrer urummelige oplevelser er, at vi på den måde kan fortsætte med at fungere. Det har dog en høj pris, for det gør indhug i vores livfuldhed, blokerer vores kreativitet, hæmmer vores spontane udtryk, sænker graden af nærvær i vores relationer og skader vores fysiske helbred. Og fordi traumer findes indkapslede, vakuumpakkede, konserverede og fraspaltede i sindets tidslommer tager vi dem med os, fra det ene øjeblik ind i det næste. De gør os forudindtagede. Bogstavelig talt – indtagede af vores fortid.

At være bipolar har for mig altid været ensbetydende med, at verdens farver kun kan bære sort-hvid. Dette er et udpluk af min verden. Jeg har altid brugt metaforer for at belyse min verden, for at andre kan forstå mine meget voldsomme sving fra glæde til dyb ulykkelighed. Metaforer, der får tegnet et billede af, hvem jeg er i mængdens øjne. For at kunne læse skal du lukke øjnene op. I denne samling af digte får du en øjenåbner for den mørke side. Jeg har kæmpet en lang kamp for at kunne nå hertil, så du vil kunne se glimt af lys, i takt med at du læser.Uddrag af bogenLivets vej, fyldt med hullerMedicin kan du på recept fåSom asfaltarbejder fylder psykiatri medicin i disseEn lindrende gift forgifter frontallapperGør, mødet med disse huller dulmes Søger trøst i medicinens skær,Men glemmer dens efterladen af resterEn påvirkning der gør livet ej fungerer udenNår en dosis tages, vil en ny skulle erstatteSom et tog drevet af kul tankes der til den næste station at nå hen tilHul til hul, station til station, piller skal slugesOm forfatteren Wilfred Hojby er en ung mand med en kompleks personlighed. Han skjuler sin indre kamp bag et smil. Wilfred elsker at skrive. Han bruger sine evner til at udtrykke sig gennem sine digte. Han håber, at de en dag vil kunne hjælpe andre. Han håber at kunne give håb i mørket.

Dette lille essay beskriver den historiske baggrund for elektrochok (ECT), selve proceduren samt de hjerneskader, som meget ofte kan konstateres hos patienterne bagefter. Tillige nævnes psykiaternes langvarige og demagogiske modvilje mod at anerkende disse skader, med svære følger for patienterne.Endvidere påpeges vigtigheden af, at hvis man skal have sandheden frem om skaderne efter ECT, må tidligere patienter (og deres pårørende) træde frem i samlet flok og kræve en tilbundsgående undersøgelse heraf.

Bipolar disorder is not like black and white. You may ask yourself why. The reason is that the differences in the scale of each color or shade can be so subtle with full of intensity in its expression. Black can be made by mixing the primary colors in equal amounts--red, yellow, and blue. While white is a combination of all colors in the color spectrum mixed in equal amounts. In both combinations, the colors mixed have to be exact, or you end up with a different color or shade. What makes them unique is that black is the absence of light, and white is the presence of light, making them opposites and effortless. So why black and white? Because they are far from each other like the North Pole and the South Pole.Bipolar disorder has extensive alterations called mood swings that are also opposites of each other named depression and manic episodes, but still do not have specific manifestations or range in their state, no one is alike. There is no method, prescription, or procedure for any of us with bipolar disorder, and should never be categorized as one and never stereotyped. It is not easy to define it as if it is the colors or shades of black and white because every person who suffers from bipolar disorder should be treated as an individual case, not as a whole. Each case is different which makes this disorder extremely difficult to manage by the medical department and the patient.Medication is given, for the most part at first wrongly. What works for someone might not work for me, so it becomes a trial-and-error method. Not knowing if the medication is going to work creates uncertainties, and I fear for my life and my well-being. It is part of the process until I get the correct medication, and I am feeling well. When this happens, I need you to be with me, even if you are not physically here. I need to know that I can count on you, and mostly I need to hear you say that you love me. My prayers are that by the time you finish reading this book, you will have a conceptual understanding of what bipolar disorder is, and there are no misconceptions.

What is depression really? A psychological disorder? An emotional problem? A spiritual weakness? A medical condition? People struggling with depression are often given simplistic answers, which can lead to fear of seeking help, and even a sense that they have personally failed in some way. With compassion developed from their personal and clinical experience as psychiatrists, the authors tackle the complexities of depression from a multi-disciplinary approach. In this thoughtful and practical guide, they weave together Scripture with science, theology with cutting edge scientific research, and the stories of many Christians who have suffered, to help those with depression to find healing. For Christians, hope for depression lies in a deep understanding of both what it means to inhabit broken bodies in a fallen world, and the hope we have in the gospel. By fully grasping the implications of both for our bodies, minds, and souls, can we learn what it means to walk by faith even through the dark valley of depression.

And every day some 15 million Americans endure suicidal ideatio n: persistent, agonizing thoughts about taking their lives. Profiling suicide survivors, their families, and experts in the field, Barrat begins to assemble a fuller portrait of suicide, examing such risk factors as genetics, means, mental health, and history.
