Although once thought to be a rare and unusual condition, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) has become increasingly a part of everyday discourse as it has gathered more and more media attention. News magazines and programs have done features on the disorder and its range of symptoms, and popular culture has depicted characters suffering from OCD, such as the eponymous detective in the UPN television program Monk.

One facet of OCD that is just beginning to be widely known is that people with the disorder can present a wide range of symptoms. Some people with OCD wash compulsively, others hoard objects, while still others—the audience of this book—struggle with obsessive thoughts. The most effective treatment techniques vary from symptom to symptom. This is why New Harbinger launched, with the publication of Overcoming Compulsive Hoarding, a series of books designed to bring the latest coping strategies for specific OCD symptoms to the people who need them most. Since that first book, we have brought readers two more titles: Overcoming Compulsive Washing and Overcoming Compulsive Checking. The professional community and OCD sufferers alike have warmly received all three books.

This fourth book in the series addresses the needs of those who struggle with obsessive thoughts they perceive as violent, disgusting, or blasphemous. Psychologists estimate that more than 50 percent of OCD sufferers experience aggressive, religious, or sexual thoughts. The goal of this book is to help people understand the impact of their control efforts on their obsessional thoughts. It works to help them recognize that thoughts, in themselves, are not threatening, dangerous, or harmful. Rather, it is the compulsive strategies they develop for coping that make the thoughts seem so harmful. The book offers safe and effective exposure exercises readers can use to limit the effect obsessive thoughts have on their lives. In addition to self-care strategies, the book includes information about choosing and making the most of professional care.

A powerful new therapeutic approach, dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), has proven to be the most effective treatment for the mood swings and impulsive behaviour symptomatic of borderline personality disorder. This is the first book to apply DBT treatment to bipolar disorder, a chronic, complex mental illness that has much in common with borderline personality disorder. It presents a complete programme for the treatment of bipolar disorder that shows readers how to manage painful emotions, handle suicidal and self-harming behaviour, control impulsive and mood-dependent behaviours, and learn positive and healthy coping techniques such as mindfulness, distracting skills, and self-soothing skills. The workbook stresses the importance of radical acceptance, which, in the case of bipolar disorder, is the knowledge and acceptance of the fact that readers may not be able to live the lives they had envisioned because of the disorder.

Do you ever feel frustrated or discouraged by seeming lack of “willpower” or self-discipline? Ever feel “out of control” with your eating? Do you ever find it difficult to “stick to” a plan for weight loss or maintenance? This extremely effective weight loss and weight management cassette provides you with the tools to take your own control of your eating patterns and your health. It utilizes vivid, detailed visualization and guided imagery, blended throughout with wonderfully relaxing, calming breath techniques and deep physical relaxation. This combination creates a deep state of relaxation and self-hypnosis, in which your own healthy weight goals and the appropriate steps to reach them, can register deeply in your inner mind – where they can motivate you, keep you on track, empower you to follow through on the better food choices you want to make, and to firmly establish the healthier eating habits that will help you reach and then sustain your desired weight level. You will find this to be one of the most soothing and relaxing experiences you have had, and yet it will simultaneously give you the skills — along with tapping into and strengthening your own inner resources of self-discipline and determination (i.e., “willpower”) — to resist cravings, to steer away from unhealthy foods and toward better foods for you, to implement moderation and portion control, and even to engage in exercise activity to complement your new healthful eating patterns. Many have reported after using this tape, that they were delighted to discover that they simply no longer had the desire for the amounts or fattening types of foods that they had before; their cravings had diminished or disappeared – it had worked without their making a conscious effort, and had given them the capability to accomplish their weight goals. NOTE: Cassette tapes are made specially for your order to ensure the quality of the recording.
