内容説明

Wounded Healers Mental Health Workers Experiences of Depression Edited by Vicky Rippere and Ruth Williams From published reviews: "...The spontaneity and frankness of most of the contributions, together with the scholarly yet sympathetic editorial analyses between the sections, makes this a readable book, and an important addition to the literature of professional health and the natural history of depressive illness. " Journal of the Royal College of General Practitioners, 1986 "...I recommend this book to all those concerned in the treatment of depression, whatever their professional background or status. They would find it a good book to recommend to some of their patients with depression. It is not a self help manual but there is much that other sufferers may find of help. " British Medical Journal, 1985 "...the book provides some gripping moments for those mental health professionals charged with the responsibility for teaching, training, or employing other helping professionals. " Readings: A Journal of Reviews, 1985 "...this is a very readable book, and should be on the shelves of all students and practitioners of mental health. " Behaviour Research and Therapy, 1986

内容説明

This edited volume of personal experiences of depression has been written by mental health workers, and is the most comprehensive collection of phenomenological accounts of depression in the English language. The book, which takes a positive view of depressive experience, is aimed at a wide range of readers, both professional - doctors, nurses, clinical psychologists - and lay persons such as members of self-help groups for depressed patients and their families. The editors conclude that an episode or episodes of depression does not necessarily mean the end of a productive mental health career and that benefits in personal and professional life can result from the experience of depression. Although depression amongst helping professionals is of special public interest, this book aims to stimulate wider discussion of this overlooked topic, which has implications for mental health in the professions generally.
