Description
Everyday, thousands of smart, skilled, creative and likeable people find themselves stuck on the road to success in life, because they cant get things done. What theyre experiencing is no short-term or minor problem. It isnt a matter of laziness or lack of ambition. These individuals suffer from a profound inability to move their lives forward. To put it simply, they are stuck. Drawing on more than 20 years experience working with people who were stuck, psychiatrist Don Kerson argues that being stuck is the result of a complex interaction between depression, attention deficit disorder and dissociation (a consequence of childhood trauma). Getting Unstuck provides a groundbreaking first look at this significant, but misunderstood, mental health problem, which has gone unrecognized by the mental health community, until now. It also takes a close look at what is required to successfully treat it.
