2024High-functioning Depression
The overlooked condition. An educational book
by Michelle Hildebrandt
The image many people have of depression is devastating - a chronic condition that leaves not only the sufferer but also their loved ones at a loss. Unfortunately, psychotherapies often focus on deficits rather than individual strengths and resources. Although this makes patients feel understood, there is a risk that they will become stuck in the role of victim. But what about those who seem to be functioning normally, those who masterfully hide their depression behind a smile? High-functioning depression" is often overlooked because people affected by it have good coping strategies to deal with everyday life. In this groundbreaking book, Dr Michelle Hildebrandt, a specialist in psychiatry and psychotherapy, shows how high-functioning depression can be recognised and how resource-oriented therapy can help not only those affected, but also other people with depression and their relatives. This book broadens the picture of depression and creates a space of hope.

April 2024Depression Is not SomethingThat Just Happens
10 self-empowerment conceptsfor burnout, depression and trauma
by Barbara Günther-Haug
A crisis does not make a disease. It only becomes dangerous when we get stuck – in the ways of thinking and acting that are rooted in our fears and desires, but not in reality. That way, we wear ourselves out for nothing; exhaustion and frustration increase, and may even end in depression. This book sheds a light on ten main stress situations that may be the reason for depression. It goes far beyond the usual explanations of the symptoms of depression or individual stories, and is a treasure trove for people who want to understand what has caused them to wear themselves out mentally and how they can lift themselves out of this low.

Literature & Literary StudiesJanuary 2014Court and civic society in the Burgundian Low Countries c.1420–1530
by Andrew Brown, Graeme Small
This volume is the first ever attempt to unite and translate some of the key texts which informed Johan Huizinga's famous study of the Burgundian court, The Waning of the Middle Ages, a work which has never gone out of print. It combines these texts with sources that Huizinga did not consider, those that illuminate the wider civic world that the Burgundian court inhabited and the dynamic interaction between court and city. Through these sources, and an introduction offering new perspectives on recent historiography, the book tests whether Huizinga's controversial vision of the period still stands. Covering subjects including ceremonial events, such as the spectacles and gargantuan banquets that made the Burgundian dukes the talk of Europe, the workings of the court, and jousting, archery and rhetoric competitions, the book will appeal to students of late medieval and early modern Europe and to those with wider interests in court culture, ritual and ceremony.

PsychiatryIntoduction to Affect Phobia Therapy
by Dr. Quin van Dam
A fear of one’s own emotions can lead people to develop what has been termed emotion- or affect phobia. To deal with this specific kind of phobia, Affect Phobia Therapy (APT) has proven to be useful. In APT, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, and experimental techniques are combined to help the patient to learn to accept and manage emotions again. Research shows that especially people suffering from anxiety or depression and people with avoidant or dependent personality disorders benefit from this method. This book offers a practical explanation of this evidence-based therapeutic method. The eight chapters focus on all different aspects of APT and the underlying theoretical concepts are illustrated with example patient-therapist dialogues. Target Group: psychologists, psychotherapists, students

July 2022Chronic Depression
by Leuzinger-Bohleber, Marianne; Fischmann, Tamara; Beutel, Manfred E.
Chronically depressed patients are often considered difficult to treat because the illness is often closely related to severe traumatic experiences. This manual focuses on traumatized, chronically depressed patients: it outlines both the disorder as well as its diagnostic approach and explains the basic assumptions of the psychoanalytic understanding of depression. It explains the basic treatment steps in long-term psychoanalytic treatment of chronically depressed, early traumatized patients, and addresses specific challenges such as suicidality, aggression, and guilt. Basic therapeutic approaches and treatment principles are illustrated through specific case examples. The effectiveness of this manual has been demonstrated in a study of long-term therapies for chronic depression (the so-called LAC Depression Study). For:• psychoanalysts• psychotherapists working on the basis of depthpsychology• mental health professionals that provide psychotherapy• candidates for training in psychotherapy

Dealing with Depression
Information for Those Affected and Their Families
by Martin Hautzinger
Everybody feels sad or listless at some point. This is normal. Melancholia or depression are more severe and longerlasting variants of these moods. The entire body, thought patterns, life and social relationships are affected. Depression occurs frequently and in all stages of life but is often not recognized or recognized too late and often treated inappropriately. The consequences are unnecessary suffering, loss of quality of life, strain on the family, illnesses, and even shortened life expectancy despite the availability of successful treatment options. This title outlines the symptoms and patterns of depression as well as possible causes and treatment options. In addition, self-help options are presented. The guide helps to better understand the illness and is also suitable for being read in parallel to an ongoing treatment and thus supporting the therapy. For:• those affected and their families• psychotherapists• psychiatrists• psychological coaches• primary care physicians
