Finally! A book you can understand!

I actually found myself unable to put this book down - pretty good for a book on mental health! This book explains things in layman's terms and was very helpful and easy to understand. The many case histories, written in regular English, made understanding the concepts easy. One can definitely tell that Dr. Heller has an understanding for his patients, and is truly interested in helping them. I would recommend this book to anyone, whether you are frustrated yourself, or know an adult or child who is.

All encompassing explanatory manual on mentall illnesses.

Every depressive will know the fears which hound us - "Is there really something biologically wrong with me or am I just weak, stupid or lazy by nature." It takes the clarity of this one-of- a kind book to show the conclusive biological evidence responsible for the mental chaos depressives suffer from. It leads through to sound medication choices followed by helpful advice on how to retrain a previously depressive mind set into a more positive direction.

biological unhappiness

this book IS life-changing. I had given up hope, yet now, after having read the book I've got hope again for the future. Viewing psychological ilnesses as medical problems is probably a thing of the future. I've changed my medication and according to the plan and it has definitely worked. Must-read for all people with psychological problems ranging from social phobia to pms

Dr Heller?s book has given me great insight and understandin

Most of what I learned about Psychiatry and Neurology , I learned on the job. As an ER nurse I saw a lot of Psych cases come through the door. Dr Heller's book has given me great insight and understanding to these disorders. It also showed me that 80% of the cases I saw the patient was either under treated or not treated correctly at all. Biological Unhappiness should be in all ER's as an adjunct to training and as a reference book.

Eye-opening! Controversial! Refreshing and needed! READ IT!

You can't read this book and not be moved. It contains hope and help for the literal millions of people who are needleesly suffering from everything from "simple" unhappiness to anxiety disorders to potential suicides. The author writes clearly and illustrates his ideas with case histories. Some will find this book controversial, others will think it's heavens sent. I say read it. It can save lifes and change the direction of our planet.
