Over thirty years, doctors diagnosed Sarah Fay with six different mental illnesses--anorexia, major depressive disorder (MDD), anxiety disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and bipolar disorder. Pathological is the gripping story of what it was like to live with those diagnoses, and the crippling impact each had on her life. It is also a rigorous investigation into the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)--psychiatry's "bible," the manual from which all mental illness diagnoses come. Yet as Fay found out, some of our most prominent psychiatrists have been trying to warn us that the DSM is fiction sold to the public as fact. In Pathological, former advisory editor at The Paris Review and award-winning writer Fay calls for a new conversation about mental health diagnosis, one based on rigorous transparency. With exquisite detail and a precise presentation of fact, she digs up her own life at the root to finally ask, Is a diagnosis a lifeline or a self-fulfilling prophecy? Powerful, mesmerizing, and unputdownable, Pathological sits alongside the other brave and inspiring classics of our time that explore a more intelligent, forgiving, and nuanced approach to human suffering"--. $c Publisher's description. 600 10 $a Fay, Sarah $x Mental health $0 (DLC)no2022044313 630 00 $a Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders. $0 (DLC)no2007150927 650 0 $a Mentally ill $z United States $v Biography $0 (DLC)sh2010101482 650 0 $a Mental illness $x Diagnosis $0 (DLC)sh 85083646 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611024044.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C447C3B427B811EF9FBFAF4235ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
