Anxiety + depression : effective treatment of the big two co-occurring disorders / by Wehrenberg, Margaret.(CARDINAL)481624;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Where to start? -- Underlying causes -- The low-energy client -- The hopeless ruminator -- The panicky & depressed client -- The worried & exhausted client -- The quiet avoider -- The high-energy anxious & depressed client -- The high-anxiety client -- Overarching therapy considerations -- The balance wheel -- Medication.Anxiety and depression are two of the most common complaints in therapy, and its not unusual for clients to suffer from both simultaneously. But spotting the co-occurrence is not easy. When one symptom picture dominates, diagnosis and treatment are pretty straightforward. But consider how fuzzy the clinical picture can become:Depression can rob an anxious client of the energy needed to control her symptoms; acute anxiety can make anyone depressed and exhausted; and what happens when anxiety masquerades as depression, or vice versa? What are the signs that this is happening?It's hard enough to treat these two disorders when they exist on their own, and it gets even harder when they present together.In her customary practical style and conversational tone, Margaret Wehrenberg unravels the complexity of this common comorbidity, teaching therapists exactly how to tackle it.Beginning with "Where to Start?", she walks readers through a variety of common tricks for distinguishing between anxiety and depression, and provides an assessment plan for determining which set of symptoms the client is most ready to work on.

Neurosis : understanding common mental illness / by Tyrer, Peter J.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.The general neurotic syndrome -- DSM-III and the generation of new diagnoses -- The hypotheses of the Nottingham Study of Neurotic Disorder -- Interpretation of the results of the 1988 Lancet randomised trial -- The medium term outcome of the general neurotic syndrome -- The general neurotic syndrome at 12 years -- The last phase : the general neurotic syndrome after 30 years -- Is the notion of the general neurotic syndrome useful?"Introduction Neurosis is passé, Neurosis belongs to history, Neurosis is dead. So why am I writing this book? The reason is that we need to be aware, even if we do not embrace, information that suggests the way we now look at common mental illness is not necessarily the most accurate or productive way of understanding, and more importantly, treating it. I also introduce this book with the foreword to its predecessor (Tyrer, 1989), written by the late Robert Kendell, and this also explains why I am publishing at this time. Robert, whom I will refer to as Bob from now on, was a stickler for accuracy and rarely wrote anything down that he could not defend with facts. His foreword was written 32 years ago but is just as apposite today - he actually could have written it today with the same wording, and this in itself reflects the poverty of attention that this subject has received since 1989. His statement 'new concepts should not be adopted until they have been validated by long-term follow-up studies, and the patients with a fluctuating mélange of depressive, anxious and obsessional symptoms are so common that the term 'general neurotic syndrome' must be retained to describe them', is the keynote to this book. The central part of this book presents the results of a long-term follow-up study of the general neurotic syndrome, and even allowing for my prejudices (as Bob K rightly points out) it is difficult to ignore the findings that support it"--
