At Wit's End:
What you need to know when a loved one is diagnosed with addiction and mental illness.
By Jeff Jay and Jerry Boriskin, Ph.D.,
published by Hazelden.
This new book is the definitive guide for families, patients and clinicians faced with dual diagnosis and co-occurring disorders. Including descriptions of common diagnoses, new treatment strategies, case histories and much more.
Integrating the best evidenced-based medicine with Twelve Step recovery in a profoundly new approach that breaks down barriers and makes treatment work. The authors share more than a half-century of combined experience to bring clarity to complex cases.
At Wit's End describes the complex dynamics at work when alcoholism and drug addiction meets psychological problems like depression, anxiety, bipolar, PTSD and more. It also brings clarity to the maze of providers and institutions that play a role in the treatment process.
