Wright, MD I was very skeptical about [Dr. McKenzie’s] findings, but the Finnish database on 6,000 schizophrenic patients revealed a very high level of statistical significance. We confirmed a substantially higher rate of schizophrenia among those with siblings less than two years younger. ––Sarnoff Mednick, Social Science Research Institute, University of Southern California The concepts presented are based on sound psychodynamic principles supported by findings in the literature. Theory is a marriage between psychological and biological, spanning the neuroses and psychoses, from infancy to old age. It identifies mental illness as one mechanism, and psychology and biology as one process. As such, it is the beginning of a new unification theory of mental illness. ––O. Spurgeon English, formerly of Temple University This book breaks with traditional thinking from the first paragraph ... offers an alternative to viewing, treating, managing and preventing serious emotional disorders ... breaks ground in suggesting the role of early trauma in accounting for mental disorders throughout the life cycle, in identifying the two trauma mechanism, and in the conceptualization of early traumatic events relating to the development of Borderlines, Schizophrenia, PTSD, Autism, Symbiosis and other disorders–– forcing academics to reevaluate our thinking. The research is respectable, adds to their arguments and is in support of their model. ––Charles F. Figley, Psychosocial Stress Research Program, Florida State University Through literature review and their own research, Drs. McKenzie and Wright demonstrate the profound relationship between early infant trauma and the later development of serious emotional disorders. Evidence of early traumatic origin may soon be recognized as one of the most important research findings in recent decades. This model goes beyond prevalent thinking to show that biological research only measures the results of the disease process and does not address the origins of mental illness. This book identifies primary prevention and offers new treatment methods based on the recognition of the two trauma mechanism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, it was believed that young children did not experience long-term negative effects resulting from a traumatic experience. Many professionals continue to assume that the effects of trauma on infants (0-3 years) are transient and that intervention is unnecessary. However, research has shown that infants and young children can develop posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; Scheeringa, Peebles, Cook, & Zeanah, 2001). Symptoms consistent with older children and adults (i.e., re-experiencing, avoidance/emotional numbing, and hyperarousal) have been found with infants and young children exposed to trauma. The purpose of this dissertation was to better understand the nature of trauma in early childhood using a multidimensional approach. Three studies were conducted to determine the effects of trauma and PTSD on young children. Study 1 considered the effectiveness of using the Child Behaviour Checklist (CBCL), a popular measure of childrens adjustment, to screen for PTSD symptoms in a sample of young children. Results suggested that the PTSD subscale of the CBCL correctly identified 71% of children with PTSD. Study 2 examined the role that potentially traumatic events, as well as family and child characteristics, play in the development of symptoms of PTSD by surveying a community sample. Results suggested that certain events were more likely to be associated with symptoms of PTSD and that children with younger mothers and higher rates of internalizing problems were more likely to experience symptoms of PTSD. Study 3 explored the effects of trauma on young childrens emotional, physiological and relational functioning, and was conducted in two phases: Phase I considered PTSD symptom expression, physiological stress-response (i.e., salivary cortisol) and quality of attachment in children recruited from a community sample; and Phase II considered PTSD symptoms, quality of attachment and maternal psychological distress in the development of PTSD in a clinical sample.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Babies Need Mothers How Mothers Can Prevent Mental Illness in their Children is a rare example of careful conceptual reasoning about basic categories in medicine. Ultimately this is what is sorely needed in rational thinking about the mysteries of mental illness. This book is a fascinating contribution and well worth reading, precisely because it upsets the applecart. I recommend it to anyone who wants to get beyond rigid categorization in psychiatry and look at enduring problems of the mind in new ways. Raymond Moody, Author, Life After Life; MD, Psy.D, PhD Philosophy Dr. McKenzies book is revolutionary. Some long sought answers to causes of psychosis and other severe mental illnesses are explained in clear and understandable language. He not only describes cause and effect, but also provides clear remedies for healing that are unique and long lasting. He shows clearly and unmistakably the way to recover health, and his findings could change the prevailing way of treating chronic mental difficulties. Harold Stern, PhD, Psychoanalyst This book is a further development of ideas described in Delayed Posttraumatic Stress Disorders from Infancy: The Two Trauma Mechanism by Clancy D. McKenzie, MD and Lance S. Wright, MD. I have used this latter book in my courses at Georgetown University, in courses on the family and courses on philosophy of psychoanalysis. The ideas of the book were enlightening, stimulative and provocative. I plan to continue to use the ideas of Dr. McKenzie in my classes. In his new book Dr. McKenzie makes recommendations about child rearing practices. His new book is rich in ideas and promises a fruitful debate about the psychological origins of mental illness. No one will regret reading this book. Wilfried Ver Eecke Professor in Philosophy Adjunct Professor in Psychology Georgetown University
