"The sole purpose of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous and the Program, as I know it, is to guide me toward a spiritual contact with God, as I understand him. When that happens, not only will I lose weight, but my desire for food will be taken away."Besides telling his own story, Bill B. goes through the Twelve Steps, one by one. He also includes chapters on topics of real concern to overeaters--"abstinence," fear, anger, depression, relationships, money, and switching compulsions.If we are thin, we are not necessarily well, he says, but if we are well--that is, if we feel good about ourselves and like ourselves--we will be thin. We cannot abuse our bodies with too much food if we have respect for ourselves.May Compulsive Overeater, long awaited by those who struggle ceaselessly with the twin problems of overeating and being overweight, guide others to the same weight-loss successes Bill B. has found.

Surrealism has long been seen as its founder, André Breton,wanted it to be seen: as a movement of love and liberation. In Compulsive Beauty, Foster reads surrealism from its other, darker side: as an art given over to the uncanny, to the compulsion to repeat and the drive toward death. To this end Foster first restages the difficult encounter of surrealism with Freudian psychoanalysis, then redefines the crucial categories of surrealism - the marvelous, convulsive beauty, objective chance - in terms of the Freudian uncanny,or the return of familar things made strange by repression. Next, with the art of Giorgio de Chirico, Max Ernst, and Alberto Giacometti in mind, Foster develops a theory of the surrealist image as a working over of a primal fantasy. This leads him finally to propose as a summa of surrealism a body of work often shunted to its margins: the dolls of Hans Bellmer, so many traumatic tableaux that point to difficult connections not only between sadism and masochism butal so between surrealism and fascism. At this point Compulsive Beauty turns to the social dimension of the surrealist uncanny. First Foster reads the surrealist repertoire of automatons and mannequins as a reflection on the uncanny processes of mechanization and commodification. Then he considers the surrealist use of outmoded images as an attempt to work through the historical repression effected by these same processes. In a brief conclusion he discusses the fate of surrealism today ina world become surrealistic. Compulsive Beauty not only offers a deconstructive reading of surrealism, long neglected by Anglo-American art history, it also participates in a postmodern reconsideration of modernism, the dominant accounts of which have obscured its involvements in desire and trauma, capitalist shock and technological development. Hal Foster is Associate Professor of Art History and Comparative Literature at Cornell University. He is an editor of the journal OCTOBER.

In this compelling book, we meet a man who can't let anyone get within a certain distance of his nose, two kleptomaniacs from very different walks of life, an Internet addict who chooses virtual life over real life, a professor with a dangerous gambling habit, and others with equally debilitating compulsive conditions. Writing with compassion, humor, and a deft literary touch, Elias Aboujaoude, an expert on obsessive compulsive disorder and behavioral addictions, tells stories inspired by memorable patients he has treated, taking us from initial contact through the stages of the doctor-patient relationship. Into these interconnected vignettes Aboujaoude weaves his own personal experiences while presenting up-to-date, accessible medical information. Rich in both meaning and symbolism, Compulsive Acts is a journey of personal growth and hope that illuminates a fascinating yet troubling dimension of human experience as it explores a group of potentially disabling conditions that are too often suffered in silence and isolation.

Obsessive Compulsive (IMPORT) Mesrine - CD 4024572515836

Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder is the only book of its kind: a comprehensive, authoritative work designed to be invaluable to clinicians, researchers, and people struggling with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) and those who care about them. Unlike existing texts, which focus on only one or a few aspects of OCPD, this book offers a systematic exploration, with chapters on every facet of the disorder from leading experts on scientific techniques, including brain imaging, cognitive testing, and biological markers. OCPD and obsessive-compulsive disorder differ in symptoms and core components but may have a similar presentation, making differential diagnosis challenging. In addition, OCPD may overlap in some particulars or co-occur with other disorders, including hoarding disorder, eating disorders, and impulse control and addictive disorders. Accordingly, the authors offer detailed information to help the reader disentangle and identify these syndromes so that the proper treatment intervention can be initiated. In addition to thorough coverage of OCPD in its pathological form, the book also addresses how OCPD can be adaptive and even useful in some contexts. Each chapter features case examples that make it easy for the reader whether clinician or layperson to understand and contextualize the information, rendering Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder a uniquely useful addition to the psychiatric literature.

If you struggle with compulsive checking, one of the most common types of obsessive-compulsive disorder, you know some things all too well: the pain and frustration of feeling irresponsible and careless, the anxiety caused by the fear that you might hurt or offend someone and by living with the worry of criticism. But what you may not know is that there are things you can do—by yourself, at any time—to start feeling better. Most books on OCD focus on many types of this complex group of disorders. This book offers a program designed with you in mind, focusing just on your problem with checking. Start with the book’s self-assessment tools, which will help you understand the scope of your particular problem. Then get ready to do something about it. Based on his decades of clinical experience, author Paul Munford has developed a treatment for compulsive checking called exposure, ritual prevention, and awareness therapy (ERPA), which is adapted in this book for you to use as a self-care approach. Through this process, you’ll learn to confront your fears and experiment with safe, controlled exposure to situations you’ve been avoiding. Once you’ve achieved security and peace of mind, find out how to maintain your progress and deal with particularly challenging situations. This book has been awarded The Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies Self-Help Seal of Merit — an award bestowed on outstanding self-help books that are consistent with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles and that incorporate scientifically tested strategies for overcoming mental health difficulties.
