What Customers Say About Change Your Brain, Change Your Life: The Breakthrough Program for Conquering Anxiety, Depression, Obsessiveness, Anger, and Impulsiveness:
|
|
This simple little book is my favorite self help book ever. With Dr Amen types in this world, psychiatric disorders have a lot of hope because the focus is on the brain, not some anachronistic esoteric personality theories.This work is a gift well deserving of accolades and Dr Amen is well worthy of some great humanitarian reward for his work.
The best explanation of behavior I have ever read. I already listened to the audio version of the book, and it had so much good information that I wanted the printed version so that I could mark the parts that pertained to me or family members. Excellent information.
You learned a lot about the different parts of the brain and the connection between the brain and the way some people act including their personalities. Excellent and very instructive book.
This book has some good hints on CBT, Exercise etc. There is some truth here, but lets look at the research. Amen acts, with some minor qualifications, as if specific mood disorders can be traced to a single malfunctioning section of the brain. For example, he suggests that OCD types have a malfunctioning cingulate gyrus that benefits from increased serotonin, and that this can be achieved from SSRI or a diet higher in carbohydrates.
The bottom line is that mood disorders are complex, and there are not just seven types with seven algorithms. Pure depression, as well as panic disorder, has been shown in numerous studies (Look on PubMed) to be correlated with a decrease in 5-HT transmission. So, for example, if the patient with OCD symptoms followed a high carb diet, they might calm themselves by increasing serotonin but aggrevate their symptoms by disturbing NE and Dopamine metabolism. Get a competent psychopharmacologist who will respect your individuality. The pure depressive on the low carb diet might increase NE and Dopamne, but might disturb Serotonin metabolism. Otherwise, its just plain wrong.
In addition, Obsessive Compulsive disorder has been linked to defects in defects of the deep limbic system. Amen pretends that he does, but he really has just committed himself to another scheme. In addition, much of his advice conflicts itself, and, in some cases, is just not accurate. On the other hand, he asserts that pure depression is causes by a malfunction in the deep limbic system, which can be corrected by stimulant medications or a diet higher in protein to increase cathecholamine neurotransmitters such as epinephrine and dopamine.
You will not be disapointed. Fast shipment, friendly, book is in like new condition. Now this ones opens your eyes to things we never think about. Great seller. Thanks Vickie If you want to be shape all the days of your life check this one out. Take the time to read and learn.
