Mr. A. was admitted to Dr. Joel Gold’s inpatient unit at Bellevue Hospital in 2002. He was, he said, being filmed constantly, and his life was being broadcast around the world "like The Truman Show" - the 1998 film depicting a man who is unknowingly living out his life as the star of a popular soap opera. Over the next few years, Gold saw a number of patients suffering from what he and his brother, Dr. Ian Gold, began calling the "Truman Show Delusion," launching them on a quest to understand the nature of this particular phenomenon and the nature of madness itself.

One of the funniest and most poignant books ever written about a mental illness, Agorafabulous! is a hilarious, raw, and unforgettable account of how a terrified young woman, literally trapped by her own imagination, evolved into a (relatively) high-functioning professional smartass.

The human reaction to insects is neither purely biological nor simply cultural. And no one reacts to insects with indifference. Insects frighten, disgust, and fascinate us. Jeff Lockwood explores this phenomenon through evolutionary science, human history, and contemporary psychology, as well as a debilitating bout with entomophobia in his work as an entomologist. Exploring the nature of anxiety and phobia, Lockwood explores the lively debate about how much of our fear of insects can be attributed to ancestral predisposition for our own survival and how much is learned through individual experiences.

La paura sistematica, che dà disturbi anche gravi come ansia, attacchi di panico, depressione e somatizzazioni, è dovuta al mancato sviluppo della personalità adulta e quindi al permanere della personalità infantile. Giulio Cesare Giacobbe lo ha mostrato nel suo fortunato saggio "Alla ricerca delle coccole perdute", fondando così la psicologia evolutiva.

Durante muito tempo, acreditou-se que o ciúme era sinal de amor, mesmo se fosse doentio. Tanto quem era acometido por esse sentimento, como seu alvo, sofriam em demasia. Se uma relação não tivesse boas doses de ciúme, acreditava-se que isso se devia à falta de envolvimento de um dos parceiros. Porém, a nossa sociedade mudou, e com o tempo percebemos que o ciúme não é o "tempero das relações", mas sim um sinal de que algo está faltando dentro de nós: algo que nos complete e nos permita ser feliz sem a presença de outra pessoa.

Dr. Fernando Sarráis nos habla de su audio libro: ¿Por qué el miedo es el mayor enemigo de la libertad?

No hablo de qué es el miedo sino de cómo eliminarlo. No es un lenguaje vago ni metafísico sobre el universo y la vida, sino un sistema probado para eliminar tus miedos. Todos. Sin irse por las ramas ni divagaciones espirituales. ¿Tienes miedo y no quieres perder tus sueños por no saber vencerlos? ¿No quieres perder más oportunidades por culpa del miedo?

Challenging the idolatrous underpinnings of worry, former Christianity Today executive Amy Simpson encourages us to root our faith in who God is, not in our own will power. We don't often give much thought to why worry offends God, but indulging anxiety binds us to mere possibilities and blinds us to the truth. Correctly understanding the theology of worry is critical to true transformation.
