A beloved figure's death, a betrayal of trust, or abuse can inflict a degree of pain that is seriously traumatic. Those suffering such trauma may react with mistrust and depression, becoming unwilling or unable to reach out to others or accept attention and love. Their learning potential and life performance are impaired and their ability to develop stable relationships is disrupted: this is Attachment Disability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately, contemporary psychiatry minimizes the significance of trauma, leaving many attachment-disabled people misdiagnosed, mismanaged, and enduring unnecessary suffering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eAttachment Disability, \u003c\/em\u003e Dr. John Curran, a psychiatrist with decades of private and institutional practice, demonstrates that emotional disability is always trauma related. He draws on professional literature and dozens of case studies to define three types of Attachment Disability: Avoidant, Entangled, and Acting-out. He persuasively advocates a psychiatric management style that avoids making things worse and helps people in pain clarify and accept their trauma and then focus on what they can change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr. Curran concludes with suggestions on how American psychiatry can be invigorated by clearly distinguishing between mental illness and the emotional disability it generates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAttachment Disability\u003c\/em\u003e offers an invaluable contribution to the psychiatric profession and the people it seeks to serve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"I wish I had this book thirty years ago; I would have made it required reading for every therapist on my staff.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e--Richard Obershaw, AMW, MSW, LICSW; author of the best-selling \u003cem\u003eCry Until You Laugh: \u003cem\u003eComforting Guidance for Coping with Grief\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10366528\"\u003eJohn Curran\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bidwell Learning Center\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/12\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 532\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.07d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780999602805\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0999602802\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-PSY\"\u003ePsychology\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-PSY007000\"\u003eClinical Psychology\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-PSY\"\u003ePsychology\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-PSY010000\"\u003ePsychotherapy | Counseling\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-MED\"\u003eMedical\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-MED105010\"\u003ePsychiatry | Child \u0026amp; Adolescent\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bidwell Learning Center","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450962538733,"sku":"9780999602805","price":34.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_e2941231-ac4c-4496-b214-390265f448bc.jpg?v=1700323529","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/attachment-disability-volume-1-the-hidden-cause-of-adolescent-dysfunction-and-lifelong-underperformance-9780999602805","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
