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. This simple little book is my favorite self help book ever.
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. The best explanation of behavior I have ever read.
Excellent and very instructive book. 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.
Amen acts, with some minor qualifications, as if specific mood disorders can be traced to a single malfunctioning section of the brain. In addition, Obsessive Compulsive disorder has been linked to defects in defects of the deep limbic system. This book has some good hints on CBT, Exercise etc. 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. Get a competent psychopharmacologist who will respect your individuality. In addition, much of his advice conflicts itself, and, in some cases, is just not accurate. 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.
The pure depressive on the low carb diet might increase NE and Dopamne, but might disturb Serotonin metabolism. Otherwise, its just plain wrong. 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. 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. There is some truth here, but lets look at the research. The bottom line is that mood disorders are complex, and there are not just seven types with seven algorithms. Amen pretends that he does, but he really has just committed himself to another scheme.
You will not be disapointed. Now this ones opens your eyes to things we never think about. Great seller. If you want to be shape all the days of your life check this one out. Take the time to read and learn. Fast shipment, friendly, book is in like new condition. Thanks Vickie
