Book Description

Publication Date: July 4, 2011

Your Mental Health Questions Answered contains over 70 answers to the probing questions you've always wondered about. Popular medical writer J. Lucy Boyd has interviewed 20 top psychiatrists and psychologists, asking each of them one to two questions in their specialty, ranging from anxiety to addiction to sex. Inside this book, you'll learn how to know if your child is on drugs, what to say to a friend who's miscarried, whether to date someone with a personality disorder, and what Maslow's pyramid can do for you. Filled with both practical information and facts you'll enjoy knowing but hope never to need, this book is truly an FAQ for the human brain. "Seldom will you see this many top doctors contributing to one work. I couldn't be more pleased with the results of this ambitious endeavor! Join me and learn more about yourself, your family and friends, and the eccentric woman across the street. This unique book will both entertain and empower you." - J.
