Summary

New hope for those suffering from conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, addictions, PTSD, ADHD, and more.

Though incidence of these conditions is skyrocketing, for the past four decades standard treatment hasn’t much changed, and success rates in treating them have barely improved, either. Meanwhile, the stigma of the “mental illness” label - damaging and devastating on its own - can often prevent sufferers from getting the help they need.

Brain specialist and best-selling author Dr. Daniel Amen is on the forefront of a new movement within medicine and related disciplines that aims to change all that. In The End of Mental Illness, Dr. Amen draws on the latest findings of neuroscience to challenge an outdated psychiatric paradigm and help listeners take control and improve the health of their own brain, minimizing or reversing conditions that may be preventing them from living a full and emotionally healthy life.

The End of Mental Illness will help you discover:

  • Why labeling someone as having a “mental illness” is not only inaccurate but harmful
  • Why standard treatment may not have helped you or a loved one - and why diagnosing and treating you based on your symptoms alone so often misses the true cause of those symptoms and results in poor outcomes
  • At least 100 simple things you can do yourself to heal your brain and prevent or reverse the problems that are making you feel sad, mad, or bad
  • How to identify your “brain type” and what you can do to optimize your particular type
  • Where to find the kind of health provider who understands and uses the new paradigm of brain health

Phenomenal information that we can fix our brains

Mind blowing. I never knew I had ADHD but I now know I have and delighted I am fixing a problem I never knew I had. A mesmerising read and excellent listen. Ground breaking.

Excellent information in a clear and honest delivery

Brilliant information , as a nurse and a person who has had mental health issues which I have always believed are mostly rooted in physical causes, this book is brilliant and so helpful and such a relief that someone is looking into mental health in terms of physical brain health. I love this audiobook. Narrated very well too a pleasure to listen to.

I;m not convinced by this doctor

Amen claims he can study brain images of the mentally ill and prescribe treatment on the basis of these brain images.
The treatment is largely nutritional, - vitamin supplements and the like. He doesnt explain how what he sees on the brain scan image can determine the necessary treatment. There is some evidence of the utility of vitamins, nutrients, amino acid aupplements for trearment of certain mental illness but how does one determine which vitamin would be appropriate for say, a schizophrenic patient, after you've looked at their brain scan image and identified that it looks different from a healthy person.??


I sense Amens is a conman
