The prevailing theory sees the cause as a trans-generational genetic defect of brain chemistry  which is best treated with medication.  New breakthroughs made by health professionals dislodge this theory  and show that frequently previous traumas are what lead to mental illness.  In this bold new book  renowned physician and psychotherapist Charles Whitfield takes a new look at the common problems of depression  anxiety  addictions  eating disorders  schizophrenia and other mental illness. The Truth About Depression shows the strong and at times causal relationship between childhood trauma and future depression and other mental illness; he explores the risks  side-effects and high cost of treating these disorders with anti-depressant drugs  and; provides an alternative treatment and recovery program for people with depression and a history of childhood trauma.  Dr. Whitfields book offers hope and help for those who have been held hostage by depression  and provides clinicians with new solutions and alternatives to high-risk medications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44947864453173,"sku":"ByrdShop_0757300375","price":27.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780757300370.jpg?v=1770031349","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-truth-about-depression-choices-for-healing","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
