A Lesson on Types of Treatments for Mental Illness

As shown in this compassionate book, mental illness is no fun for the patient, family, or friends. If not treated properly, mental illnesses can even result in a tragic suicide. The author's complete awareness of the various manifestations of mental illnesses makes this book a recommended addition to any public or private library.

For anyone undergoing or considering psychiatic treatment

The book helped me overcome my grave doubts about the usefulness of psychiatry. It lays out all the options in a commonsense way and provides the information to keep a psychotherapist of whatever persuasion focused on results rather than process.
