Book excerpt: Morgan Hillier sat on the cold floor, his body in a constant state of anxiety. There is only one truth, if Rachel Wharton dies, essential parts of me will crawl inside her and die with her. My life will never be the same, and the man I glimpsed in her presence will lose his way without her as his beacon. For years, his long-standing friend to lover hot and cold relationship with Rachel played havoc with Morgan's doubts. Rachel's abandonment issues kicked into high gear every time they hit a challenge. She refused to talk to him and bolted at the sign of trouble. At his sister's wedding, Morgan hits the wall with alien rage and jealousy, taking it out on Rachel in the worst way. The shock and hurt on her face were unforgettable. Now Rachel is in the hospital fighting for her life, and it's his fault. Rachel never saw Morgan so angry, so cold; he humiliated her without scruples. Finding Helen in his hotel room the following day wrecked her, and she ran, becoming a ghost in plain clothes. When Morgan showed up to apologize, Rachel retreated so far into herself; she was incapable of anything other than being a poor slob in love. To make matters worse, her mother's interference and h

Download or read book The Loss of Sadness written by Allan V. Horwitz and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-06-18 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depression has become the single most commonly treated mental disorder, amid claims that one out of ten Americans suffer from this disorder every year and 25% succumb at some point in their lives. Warnings that depressive disorder is a leading cause of worldwide disability have been accompanied by a massive upsurge in the consumption of antidepressant medication, widespread screening for depression in clinics and schools, and a push to diagnose depression early, on the basis of just a few symptoms, in order to prevent more severe conditions from developing. In The Loss of Sadness, Allan V. Horwitz and Jerome C. Wakefield argue that, while depressive disorder certainly exists and can be a devastating condition warranting medical attention, the apparent epidemic in fact reflects the way the psychiatric profession has understood and reclassified normal human sadness as largely an abnormal experience. With the 1980 publication of the landmark third edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III), mental health professionals began diagnosing depression based on symptoms--such as depressed mood, loss of appetite, and fatigue--that lasted for at least two weeks. This system is fundamentally flawed, the authors maintain, because it fails to take into account the context in which the symptoms occur. They stress the importance of distinguishing between abnormal reactions due to internal dysfunction and normal sadness brought on by external circumstances. Under the current DSM classification system, however, this distinction is impossible to make, so the expected emotional distress caused by upsetting events-for example, the loss of a job or the end of a relationship- could lead to a mistaken diagnosis of depressive disorder. Indeed, it is this very mistake that lies at the root of the presumed epidemic of major depression in our midst. In telling the story behind this phenomenon, the authors draw on the 2,500-year history of writing about depression, including studies in both the medical and social sciences, to demonstrate why the DSM's diagnosis is so flawed. They also explore why it has achieved almost unshakable currency despite its limitations. Framed within an evolutionary account of human health and disease, The Loss of Sadness presents a fascinating dissection of depression as both a normal and disordered human emotion and a sweeping critique of current psychiatric diagnostic practices. The result is a potent challenge to the diagnostic revolution that began almost thirty years ago in psychiatry and a provocative analysis of one of the most significant mental health issues today.
