Ulteriori informazioni










At a time when mental illness is on the rise worldwide and conventional treatment methods are often symptom-centred, Positive Psychiatry represents a new and revolutionary approach. This book explores how psychiatry can not only help to alleviate suffering, but also how it has the potential to promote wellbeing, resilience and personal fulfilment. Based on the findings of positive psychology, the authors combine scientifically sound research findings with practical case studies. They show how psychiatric interventions can not only treat deficits, but also build strengths and help human potential to blossom. A holistic model of mental health is presented that includes both prevention and rehabilitation. At the same time, however, the book also takes a critical look at the challenges and limitations of positive psychiatry. It highlights the danger that the focus on positive aspects such as resilience and well-being could overlook the serious needs of people with serious mental illness. Ethical issues are also discussed, such as the extent to which the pressure to always be ¿positive¿ can create new burdens. The authors also examine how societal expectations of mental health might change in the context of this new view and the role of economic and cultural factors. This book is aimed at healthcare professionals, students of psychiatry and psychology, and anyone interested in a deeper understanding of mental health and wellbeing. It offers practical tools and inspiration for a new way of looking at psychiatry - as a discipline that not only ensures survival, but enriches lives. At the same time, it encourages critical reflection on the potentials and risks of this approach, contributing to the informed development of mental health care.
