The Future of Mental Health – Deconstructing the Mental Disorder Paradigm – Eric Maisel

The Future of Mental Health – Deconstructing the Mental Disorder Paradigm – Eric MaiselThe Future of Mental Health drills to the heart of the current mental health crisis, where hundreds of millions of individuals worldwide receive unwarranted “mental disorder diagnoses.” It paints a picture of how mental health providers can improve their practices to better serve individuals in distress and outlines necessary steps for a mental health revolution. Eric Maisel’s goal is to inject more human interaction into the therapeutic process.Maisel powerfully deconstructs the “mental disorder” paradigm that is the foundation of current mental health practices. The author presents a revolutionary alternative, a “human experience” paradigm. He sheds a bright light on the differences between so-called “psychiatric medication” and mere chemicals with powerful effects, explains why the DSM-5 is silent on causes, silent on treatment, and wedded to illegitimate “symptom pictures.” Maisel describes powerful helping alternatives like communities of care, and explains why one day “human experience specialists” may replace current mental health professionals.An important book for both service providers and service users, The Future of Mental Health brilliantly unmasks current mental health practices and goes an important step further: it describes what we are obliged to do in order to secure better mental health services—and better mental health—for everyone.Table of ContentsIntroduction1 Our Human Experience2 The Naturalness of Distress3 Jettisoning Normal4 Rethinking Diagnosis5 What Shall We Call You?6 The Mental Disorder Labeling Fraud7 Chemicals versus Medication8 On Meds9 On Cause and Effect10 Life Purpose, Meaning, and Value11 Setting the Bar12 The Human Experience Specialist13 Twelve Shifts for Professionals14 Institutions and Communities of Care15 The “Mental Disorders” of Childhood16 Understanding “Madness”17 Alternatives to Diagnosis18 The Brooklyn Project19 Twenty Keys to a Mental Health Revolution20 The Future of Your Mental HealthSuggested ReadingIndexGet The Future of Mental Health – Deconstructing the Mental Disorder Paradigm – Eric Maisel , Only Price $18Tag: The Future of Mental Health – Deconstructing the Mental Disorder Paradigm – Eric Maisel Review.
