Pages : 82
Book Description
What’s it like living on the edge of insanity? It can sometimes be a living hell not knowing if what your brain is telling you is real or if it’s playing tricks on you. We are not mental health professionals with degrees, we are average people who have learned how to cope with our symptoms. Most of us have more than one diagnosis. Mental illness doesn’t get ‘zapped’ away by medications or therapy. People with depression can’t just ‘snapped out of it’ like many friends and loved ones have told us to do. One person copes with PTSD by writing comic books to manage their symptoms and another has tried EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). One person shares what Photophobia is, a type of anxiety that you wouldn’t think is a mental illness. If relapse occurs (like when depressed, our personal hygiene goes out the window), we have learned how to reach out to others, especially to our close friends, and our mental health professionals. There’s nothing shameful about having mental or emotional illness and it’s perfectly normal to ask for help.

Wall Disease: The Psychological Toll of Living Up Against a Border
Author: Jessica Wapner
Publisher: The Experiment, LLC
ISBN: 1615197354
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 133
Book Description
We build border walls to keep danger out. But do we understand the danger posed by walls themselves? East Germans were the first to give the crisis a name: Mauerkrankheit, or “wall disease.” The afflicted—everyday citizens living on both sides of the Berlin wall—displayed some combination of depression, anxiety, excitability, suicidal ideation, and paranoia. The Berlin Wall is no more, but today there are at least seventy policed borders like it. What are they doing to our minds? Jessica Wapner investigates, following a trail of psychological harm around the world. In Brownsville, Texas, the hotly contested US-Mexico border wall instills more feelings of fear than of safety. And in eastern Europe, a Georgian grandfather pines for his homeland—cut off from his daughters, his baker, and his bank by the arbitrary path of a razor-wire fence built in 2013. Even in borderlands riven by conflict, the same walls that once offered relief become enduring reminders of trauma and helplessness. Our brains, Wapner writes, devote “border cells” to where we can and cannot go safely—so, a wall that goes up in our town also goes up in our minds. Weaving together interviews with those living up against walls and expert testimonies from geographers, scientists, psychologists, and other specialists, she explores the growing epidemic of wall disease—and illuminates how neither those “outside” nor “inside” are immune.

A National Book Award Finalist "The best novel yet about 9/11.... A brilliant new comedy of manners, A Disorder Peculiar to the Country is about the way a conflict takes on a logic and momentum of its own." —Salon “Savagely hilarious.” —Elle Joyce and Marshall each think the other is killed on September 11—and must swallow their disappointment when the other arrives home. As their bitter divorce is further complicated by anthrax scares, suicide bombs, and foreign wars, they suffer, in ways unexpectedly personal and increasingly ludicrous, the many strange ravages of our time.
