Una mirada compasiva y valiente a la forma en que nos hablamos en los momentos difíciles.


Seleccionado por The New York Times como uno de los mejores títulos del año. Finalista del National Book Critics Circle. Estremecedor, real y, al mismo tiempo, esperanzador. Un acercamiento lúcido y tremendamente original a los abismos de la mente humana.


Cuando Rachel Aviv tenía tan solo 6 años, sus padres recibieron un demoledor diagnóstico para su hija: era anoréxica. Rachel, quien ni siquiera sabía lo que significaba la palabra, descubrió que probablemente era la persona que había sido etiquetada con ese trastorno a una edad más temprana.


A partir de esa experiencia, esta prestigiosa y combativa periodista cuestiona el beneficio o el perjuicio del diagnóstico en salud mental y se sumerge en cuatro casos reales, cada uno más impactante y revelador, para repasar cómo las etiquetas han determinado las décadas más recientes de la psiquiatría en el mundo occidental.


El ensayo de Rachel Aviv recoge una investigación fascinante y minuciosa sobre los abusos de esta rama de la medicina en cualquiera de sus disciplinas, y también pone énfasis en la importancia del entorno y de los otros en el proceso de curación. Es, además, un canto a la esperanza de superación de los trastornos mentales.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


A compassionate and brave look at how we talk to ourselves during difficult times.


Selected by The New York Times as one of the best titles of the year. Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. Stirring, real, and at the same time, hopeful. A lucid and tremendously original approach to the depths of the human mind.


When Rachel Aviv was just 6 years old, her parents received a devastating diagnosis for their daughter: she was anorexic. Rachel, who didn't even know what the word meant, discovered that she was probably the youngest person to be labeled with this disorder.


From that experience, this prestigious and combative journalist questions the benefit or harm of mental health diagnoses and delves into four real cases, each more impactful and revealing, to review how labels have determined recent decades of psychiatry in the Western world.


Rachel Aviv's essay presents a fascinating and thorough investigation into the abuses of this branch of medicine in any of its disciplines, and also emphasizes the importance of the environment and others in the healing process. It is, furthermore, a hymn to the hope of overcoming mental disorders.

Not the best
Size: 7, Color: Black, Size: 7, Color: Black
They are cute but they have a bit of an odd fit that isn’t great for people with narrow feet. They look too dressy to wear with super casual outfits in my opinion. I think the Ugg golden star sandals are much comfier. If you’re wearing these sandals for a really short time they’d be okay. After wearing them around my house for a little while I decided to return them since they started to hurt my feet.

Not for narrow feet, very lightweight.
Size: 7.5, Color: Black
My feet are slightly narrow; these were not adjustable enough to make secure. Otherwise they are cute. The material feels kind of light, these were my first attempt at UGGs so I'm not sure if that's typical or an actual quality issue. Either way, they don't seem very durable but I can't imagine these are meant for roughing it.
