The Healthy Compulsive : Healing Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder and Taking the Wheel of the Driven Personality (9781538132609)



If you were born with a compulsive personality you may become rigid, controlling, and self-righteous. But you also may become productive, energetic, and conscientious. Same disposition, but very different ways of expressing it. What determines the difference?
Some of the most successful and happy people in the world are compelled by powerful inner urges that are almost impossible to resist. They're compulsive. They're driven.
But some people with a driven personality feel compelled by shame or insecurity to use their compulsive energy to prove their worth, and they lose control of the wheel of their own life. They become inflexible and critical perfectionists who need to wield control, and they lose the point of everything they do in the process.
A healthy compulsive is one whose energy and talents for achievement are used consciously in the service of passion, love and purpose. An unhealthy compulsive is one whose energy and talents for achievement have been hijacked by fear and its henchman, anger. Both are driven: one by meaning, the other by dread.
The Healthy Compulsive: Healing Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder and Taking the Wheel of the Driven Personality, will serve as the ultimate user's guide for those with a driven personality, including those who have slid into obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD). Unlike OCD, which results in specific symptoms such as repetitive hand-washing and intrusive thoughts, OCPD permeates the entire personality and dramatically affects relationships. It also requires a different approach to healing.
Both scientifically informed and practical, The Healthy Compulsive describes how compulsives get off track and outlines a four-step program to help them consciously cultivate the talents and passions that are the truly compelling sources of the driven personality. Drawing from his 25 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist and Jungian psychoanalyst, and his own personal experience as someone with a driven personality, Trosclair offers understanding, inspiring stories of change, and hope to compulsives and their partners about how to move to the healthy end of the compulsive spectrum.

Der Schneekimono (9783458176824)

»Willst du dein Leben erkennen, musst du es durch die Augen eines anderen sehen.« Auguste Jovert lebt zurückgezogen in seiner Wohnung in Paris. Eines Tages steht ein Fremder vor seiner Tür, der ihm die Geschichte seines Freundes, des Japaners Katsuo Ikeda, erzählt. Ikeda führte ein bewegtes Leben als Schriftsteller, verliebte sich unsterblich in die schöne Mariko. Doch als er ihr wiederholt ihren Wunsch nach einem Kind ausschlägt, verlässt sie ihn. Er verfällt in tiefe Depressionen, bis er eines Tages die junge Sachiko trifft, die er unbedingt ganz für sich haben will, denn sie erinnert ihn an seine Mariko. Doch als Sachiko schwanger wird und in einem Schneesturm stirbt, muss er sich einer Wahrheit stellen, vor der er bislang die Augen verschlossen hat. Und Auguste Jovert begreift, dass diese Geschichte im fernen Japan mehr mit ihm zu tun hat, als er zunächst ahnte. Denn auch er wird von seiner Vergangenheit eingeholt ... Mark Henshaws atmosphärischer Roman ist ein atemberaubendes Stüc...

Colonization: Down to Earth (1400163994)

In 1942, Hitler led the world's most savage military machine. Stalin ruled Russia while America was just beginning to show its strength in World War II. Then, in Harry Turtledove's brilliantly imagined Worldwar saga, an alien assault changed everything. Nuclear destruction engulfed major cities, and the invaders claimed half the planet before an uneasy peace could be achieved. A spectacular tale of tyranny and freedom, destruction and hope, the Colonization series takes us into the tumultuous 1960s, as the reptilian Race ponders its uneasy future. But now a new, even deadlier war threatens. Though the clamoring tribes of Earth play dangerous games of diplomacy, the ultimate power broker will be the Race itself. For the colonists have one option no human can ignore. With a vast, ancient empire already in place, the Race has the power to annihilate every living being on planet Earth. Product details ...
