Download or read book Meltdown Moments Helping Families to Have Conversations about Mental Health Their Feelings and Experiences written by Anne Sved Williams and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-27 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meltdown Moments is a wonderful children's book to help families have conversations about mental health, their feelings and experiences. It provides supportive material and tools for parents who have been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, yet the tools can help all families live a calmer life. Sometimes these "systems failures" are mainly Mum and sometimes Dad. Sometimes they are simply part of everyday life and are a reaction to the tensions of life, particular strains of illness, money, and other family pressures. If they happen a lot, they may be part of a mental health problem. Whatever the mental health of parents in your family, this book may be useful for the small children (and some other members of the household!) Have a peek inside and you will see the delightful art of Marie Jonsson-Harrison humorously depicting family life, meltdowns and all. As the story develops, Mum decides she needs help, and family life improves. In some families, mental health difficulties can be at the heart of more frequent meltdowns. Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is one of the conditions which can cause such emotional spillovers. This book provides not only the picture story to help children understand a bit better about what is going on for mum - or maybe dad - but also some information from the author of the story, Dr Anne Sved Williams. Anne is a psychiatrist who has been working with mothers with mental health difficulties for 30 years and has a passionate interest in helping the whole family - infant, small children, mum, dad and maybe the grandparents as well. The book will be valuable to anyone living in a family with meltdowns and also to those working in educational settings who can use this book as a starting point for discussions about family emotions.

Download or read book Outofshapeworthlessloser written by Gracie Gold and published by Crown. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A “piercing account” (The Wall Street Journal) of surviving as a young woman in a society that rewards appearances more than anything and demands perfection at all costs—especially if you’re an Olympic figure skater. “A riveting memoir, which details her experience with an eating disorder, depression and her high-stakes career.”—People (Best Books to Read in February 2024) When Gracie Gold stepped onto center stage (or ice, rather) as America’s sweetheart at the 2014 Sochi Olympics, she instantly became the face of America’s most beloved winter sport. Beautiful, blonde, Midwestern, and media-trained, she was suddenly being written up everywhere from The New Yorker to Teen Vogue to People and baking cookies with Taylor Swift. But little did the public know what Gold was facing when the cameras were off, driven by the self-destructive voice inside that she calls “outofshapeworthlessloser.” In 2017, she entered treatment for what was publicly announced as an eating disorder and anxiety treatment but was, in reality, suicidal ideation. While Gold’s public star was rising, her private life was falling apart: Cracks within her family were widening, her bulimia was getting worse, and she became a survivor of sexual assault. The pressure of training for years with demanding coaches and growing up in a household that accepted nothing less than gold had finally taken its toll. Now Gold reveals the exclusive and harrowing story of her struggles in and out of the pressure-packed world of elite figure skating: the battles with her family, her coaches, the powers-that-be at her federation, and her deteriorating mental health. Outofshapeworthlessloser is not only a forceful reckoning from a world-class athlete but also an intimate memoir, told with unflinching honesty and stirring defiance.

Book excerpt: Creator of the popular blog "The Unmumsy Mum," Sarah Turner offers an uncensored account of her early years of parenting. Sarah Turner's first few months of parenting were tough. On the darkest of sleep-deprived days, when the baby would not settle and she was irritable and the house was a disaster-zone, she wanted to read about someone who felt the same. Someone who would reassure her that she wasn't a total failure. But she found nothing of the sort. She decided then and there that she would write something herself. She would document parenthood as she found it. Not how she wanted to find it or how she wanted other people to think that she found it. But how it was. Warts and all. Thus, her blog was born. Now with thousands of followers, "The Unmumsy Mum" blog covers everything from "baby-wearing incompetence" to "second child shortcuts." Full of candor, humor, and charm, this book—a #1 Sunday Times bestseller—shows us that we can read every parenting manual under the sun, but still have no bloody clue—and not having a clue is just fine. The Unmumsy Mum is a winner of the 2017 Family Choice Awards.

Contacting Gemma Jones, an image consultant with a reputation for miraculously transforming fallen stars, Nick figures with any luck she can work her magic on his client. And from their first incendiary meeting, Nick realizes Gemma’s magic works on him, too. Creating new images comes second nature to Gemma, who has already changed her own identity twice to avoid a danger from her past. And with that danger always threatening to resurface, she’s also sworn off any romantic entanglements. The last thing she needs is a brash, hunky, hilarious guy like Nick trying to seduce her. Nick feels certain he can get past Gemma’s defenses, and as much as she’d love to fall for him, she may just have to change her identity yet again and run for everyone’s sake. But Gemma’s a fighter, and she won’t give up on finding a way to save Nick’s client and also save her own heart. “This was funny, sexy and a little heartbreaking at times.
