Paperback. Recent surveys have found that the vast majority of thepublic believes that mental illness is real and treatable. And yet, fewerthan half of people with diagnosable mental illnesses get treatment in anygiven year, and of those who do, only half adhere to it.What accountsfor the disconnect? According to Daniel Morehead, M.D., unchecked critiquesof psychiatrythat it is impossible to define mental illness, that theneurobiology of major mental illnesses is unknown, that patients areoverdiagnosed and overmedicatedhas led to a public perception that mentalhealth treatment is profoundly flawed.In Science Over Stigma,Dr. Morehead argues that it is time for a full-throated defense of mentalhealth treatment, and that it falls to everyone, from medical and mentalhealth professionals to the general public, to advocate on itsbehalf.In accessible terms this book sets forth a definition ofmental illness, candidly discussing what is known and what remains unknown,and then describes its prevalence, social and physical consequences, and arange of treatments. Each chapter includes advocacy tips that help readerstranslate the information they've learned into the means for constructivedialogue.By clearly laying out the science behind mental illness andits treatment and vividly illustrating how common it isaffecting patients,their friends and family, and mental health professionals themselvesthisvolume seeks to turn the recognition of psychiatric illness into practicalbehavior, destigmatizing both the illness itself and the search fortreatment. Argues that it is time for a full-throated defense of mental health treatment. In accessible terms this book sets forth a definition of mental illness, candidly discussing what is known and what remains unknown, and then describes its prevalence, social and physical consequences, and a range of treatments.
