Abstract

Depuis une trentaine d'année, les troubles bipolaires ont fait leur apparition dans les classifications des pathologies mentales. Cette maladie à l'évolution déroutante, qui alterne normalité apparente et phases aiguës d'excitation et de dépression, a suscité de nombreuses recherches. Plus fréquente qu'on ne le croyait, elle reste encore pourtant largement méconnue. Destiné à un large public, aux patients, à leurs proches ainsi qu'aux soignants, cet ouvrage fait le point sur les connaissances et les incertitudes actuelles. Au travers d'une analyse précise des caractéristiques cliniques et des facteurs de risque, Thierry Haustgen détaille les différentes formes de troubles bipolaires et les thérapeutiques adaptées. Thierry Haustgen est psychiatre, praticien hospitalier et expert près la cour d'appel de Paris.

Abstract

"One morning Mel Toews put on his coat and hat and walked out of town, prepared to die. A loving husband and father, faithful member of the Mennonite church, and immensely popular schoolteacher, he was a pillar of his close-knit community. Yet after a lifetime of struggle, he could no longer face the darkness of manic depression. With razor-sharp precision, Swing Low tells his story in his own voice, taking us deep inside the experience of despair. But it is also a funny, winsome evocation of country life: growing up on farm, courting a wife, becoming a teacher, and rearing a happy, strong family in the midst of private torment. A humane, inspiring story of a remarkable man, father, and teacher." --Publisher's description.

Abstract

Managing the cognitive difficulties experienced in bipolar disorder poses a significant challenge to patients, relatives, researchers and clinicians. This book equips readers with a thorough understanding of these cognitive deficits and, importantly, the usefulness of current treatment approaches, such as remediation, to improve functional recovery. This manual guides readers in the application of the functional remediation programme, providing a collection of materials enabling therapists to run group sessions. The first part focuses on cognitive deficits and their impact on functional recovery. The second part describes the operation of the programme, session by session, with reference to handouts and slides available for download from an accompanying website. Topics covered include memory, attention, and executive functions. The final part describes the efficacy of this programme, particularly the functional improvements seen in participants. An essential resource for psychologists, psychiatrists and other healthcare professionals caring for patients with bipolar disorder.
