Sinossi
An investigation of why so many people deliberately hurt themselves and what can be done to help them. The illness "outed" on a global scale when Princess Diana admitted hurting herself deliberately, and continues to be practised mainly by middle-class women who start in their teens and self-harm throughout their lives. Most cutters are women who have been emotionally, sexually or physically abused as children, but Marilee Strong's research shows that self-mutilation also appears in other groups. There are powerful first-person stories, in which cutters describe their ritualistic methods and somewhat addictive cravings for seeing their own blood. Though research is in its infancy, therapists say there are now promising treatments - from medication to intensive psychotherapy - for the millions of "cutters". Strong reveals what the afflicted and those close to them can do to start a process of healing.

Softcover. Condizione: As New. First Thus. There are people who deliberately cut their skin, burn themselves and break their own bones. They do it systematically for many years, and without help they can rarely stop. Most have lived through severe forms of emotional or physical childhood abuse. The pain they feel is mute, their only cry 'a bright red scream'. They call themselves 'cutters' - and this book is their story. Self-mutilation is a behaviour so shocking and cloaked in denial that it is almost never discussed. Yet a recent study suggests that as many as one in eight young people have deliberately harmed themselves at some point in their lives. When the late Princess Diana intimated in an extraordinary television interview that she had been a cutter, millions of people around the globe finally realised that they were not alone in their suffering. Grounded in science and filled with human stories, 'A Bright Red Scream', like the pioneering works on Incest of the 1970's and eating disorders of the 1980's, is destined to become a classic and to change the way we think about this condition - 'the addiction of the nineties'. Size: Octavo (standard book size). 232 pages. no Dust Jacket as published. Red & blue titles spine; Includes bibliography & index. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 500 grams. Category: Psychology & Psychiatry; Medicine & Health; Sociology & Culture; Cutters; Women & Feminism. ISBN: 1860497543. ISBN/EAN: 9781860497544. Inventory No: 2580. Codice articolo 2580
