Self-Defeating Personality Disorder, Nicotine Dependence, Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder, Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder-these are some of the 400 "mental illnesses" described in the American Psychiatric Association's diagnostic bible, Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). Caplan (The Myth of Women's Masochism), a psychologist and former consultant to the DSM, compellingly argues that "much of what is labeled 'mental illness' would more appropriately be called problems in living." In a disturbing insider's look at how the mental health establishment decides who is normal and who is "sick," she charges that the DSM board's decision-making process, dominated by a handful of conservative white male psychiatrists, is arbitrary, condescending, profit-driven and riddled with personal biases and political consideration. Facile labeling of personality problems, she shows, can cause personal suffering as well as material harm because DSM categories figure prominently in who wins child custody, who gets hospitalized against their will and whose psychotherapy is covered by insurance. Psychologist Caplan shows how the American Psychiatric Association's bible, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, lacks the scientific basis claimed for it. Drawing on her years as an adviser-consultant to various related APA committees, she brings to light the association's lack of interest in outsiders' views and the sloppy design and execution of the research it accepts as authoritative. Caplan cites two diagnostic entities, self-defeating personality disorder and premenstrual dysphoric disorder, not only to demonstrate the association's narrow-mindedness and sloppy scientific manners but also to underline the dangers of labeling individuals or groups with such designations.

<br />
I had to cancel a few shows this week and wasn't too happy about it.  It looks like I am going to have to go to the hospital sometime this week for a long term stay...and when I say long term I'm talking 3-6 months.  They do allow me to have my laptop so I may be able to broadcast from the hospital, interview guests and give you general updates on what's going on.  I am trying to fight my depression but it is sneaking up on me because I don't want to be sick like this and I am in such pain I can barely function.  On top of that I fell over my husbands wheelchair a few days ago and I am in MAJOR pain.  I should have gone to the ER but I didn't.  Now My knees are killing me, my neck and back are killing me and I just feel like I went 10 rounds with Mike Tyson.  It was a pretty hard fall.  To make maters worse, a day later I fell down the stairs!  I think there is something wromg with my balance.  Another horrible symptom is that I am suffering from SEVERE short term memory loss.  It's awful.  Not to mention that when I type messages like this or like an email I have to go over it very carefully.  The other day I signed me name Jacqueline like this qesbtyhy...is that even close to Jacqueline?  I don't think so.  I have to type slowly and deliberately.  I am very scared that the disease I have is somehow affecting my brain.  As much as I love to write and read and do radio that would devestate me.  I am very scared right now and being far from home for months will not be easy.  It looks like I wil be in Wisconsin so other than my sister I will have few visitors so I am on my own.  I hope some of you will write me at <a href="mailto:host@yourmentalhealthradio.com">host@yourmentalhealthradio.com</a> since I think I will have my laptop and my brand new amazon Kindle (my birthday present) with me.  I hope to be able to broadcast from where ever I am, it helps me feel less lonely.  <br />

His world changed instantly; success in the raunchy joke trade-he also had an edgy FOX series in development-was replaced by the struggle for survival, the rigors of chemotherapy and all the fear and uncertainty that goes with it.

To thine own self be true. But can you do that while still being a valued part of the wider community? Or must you always sacrifice your own inclinations and desires to fit in? For anyone who has ever felt like an outsider at work, in groups, in school, or even in your own extended family, help is on the way. Bestselling author Leonard Felder, PhD, has written the first book with advice on how to be successful personally and professionally when you think differently, live differently, create differently, or solve problems differently than those around you. This wise and perceptive guide is neither about withdrawing into isolation and passivity, nor about spending every waking hour battling with others. Rather, it’s about choosing wisely when to speak your truth and saying it in a way that gets positive results. Dr. Felder shows exactly how creative, thoughtful, unique individuals can survive and thrive in situations that used to make them shut down or retreat into a shell. He provides actual examples from his own practice and precise techniques that will assure your good ideas, outsider perspective, and innovative solutions are respected and taken seriously, even by rigid people.  
Both inspiring and practical, it offers soothing balm and useful answers for everyone who heard too often during adolescence or young adulthood that “you just don’t fit in”—and for the ones who love and counsel them, too.

To thine own self be true. But can you do that while still being a valued part of the wider community? Or must you always sacrifice your own inclinations and desires to fit in? For anyone who has ever felt like an outsider at work, in groups, in school, or even in your own extended family, help is on the way. Bestselling author Leonard Felder, PhD, has written the first book with advice on how to be successful personally and professionally when you think differently, live differently, create differently, or solve problems differently than those around you. This wise and perceptive guide is neither about withdrawing into isolation and passivity, nor about spending every waking hour battling with others. Rather, it’s about choosing wisely when to speak your truth and saying it in a way that gets positive results. Dr. Felder shows exactly how creative, thoughtful, unique individuals can survive and thrive in situations that used to make them shut down or retreat into a shell. He provides actual examples from his own practice and precise techniques that will assure your good ideas, outsider perspective, and innovative solutions are respected and taken seriously, even by rigid people.  
Both inspiring and practical, it offers soothing balm and useful answers for everyone who heard too often during adolescence or young adulthood that “you just don’t fit in”—and for the ones who love and counsel them, too. Even more important, it reveals how the very qualities that made you different can become your greatest strengths and most important gifts to the world.

Dayna Steele, best known as Houston's First Lady of Radio ruled the rock airwaves for almost two decades. Honored by Billboard Magazine as Local Radio Personality of the Year in 1996, Steele was also included in Talkers Magazine's 100 Most Important Radio Talk Show Hosts. Steele spent years traveling the globe and interviewing countless bands and rock stars like Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ozzy Osbourne, David Bowie, Bono and Sammy Hagar...to name a few.

Elaine's book takes us inside a widow's journey through loss, grief and renewal. It is the author's personal struggle following the illness and death of her husband of twenty years. This story deals with a family's grief and the challenges faced by those left behind. It is a journey familiar to many in today's society where one spouse outlives the other. Despite challenges that arise when things fall apart, loss can help us uncover our own strength, purpose and dignity. This is a tribute to survival and renewal as loved ones redefine the family unit, minus one.

class="mark" id="misspell-2">MFT</span> who wrote a wonderful book called Positive Discipline For Teenagers.  As the mother of three children aged 20, 16 and 13 this was a PERFECT resource guide for me.  It was well written and filled with ideas.  To <span class="unmark" id="misspell-3" spellMenu="null">purchase </span>the book you can click on the link to the broadcast or go directly to amazon.com or get it where ever books are sold.  I also HIGHLY recommend that you visit both authors websites.  Jane's website is FILLED with information on parenting children of all ages and even offer parenting classes (I am signing up for the 10 week teen class...it looks fantastic and I love to learn new things to improve my life).  The classes are affordable...in fact they are very affordable so check it out at <a href="http://www.positivediscipline.com/"><span style="color: #800080">www.positivediscipline.com</span></a> and give me your feed back.  Also visit Lynn Lott's website at <a href="http://www.lynnlott.com/">www.lynnlott.com</a> Lynn offers many services INCLUDING over the phone counseling services.  She can be reached at 707-526-3141.  The show was cut off the last 8 minutes, but only goodbyes and thank yours were missed so the bulk of the great info from Jane and Lynn is there.  I will be editing the show this week and upload it again so that it is "complete".  I'm learning new things everyday at broadcasting school!  <span class="mark" id="misspell-8">LOL</span>! </span>
