Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a condition in which the heart muscle becomes suddenly and severely weakened as a result of great emotional and/or physical stress, causing the heart's left ventricle (main pumping chamber) to become significantly enlarged, resembling a Japanese octopus trap (a tako-tsubo). Correctly diagnosed and treated, the condition is usually fully reversible. Based around her own experience of this syndrome following her mother's suicide, the Author explains the risks, the signs to look out for, the Dos and Don'ts and the best ways to promote recovery. She includes a selection of other patients' stories that show the diversity of traumas that can lead to the syndrome, as well as input from a range of health professionals who share the difficulties of identifying and treating the condition.

Telling The Truth, 1e

Hill
Karnac Books Limited
200 pages
ISBN: 9781800132962
February 2025

Honesty is important in any relationship but within psychotherapy, honesty takes on a different dimension. The impact of speaking the truth has many repercussions to the therapeutic relationship and may harm the perception of the therapist in the eyes of the client or the relationship in its entirety. Thus, what are the limits of what a therapist can therapeutically share with a client? What are the implications of the therapist choosing to conceal what they congruently experience? Have therapists in the past been more able and more willing to tell the truth with their clients? Rob Hill engages with these and many more questions, which lead into related territories - those of shame, power, love and hate, narcissism, intersubjectivity and madness - and invites the reader to consider them from a fresh perspective.

February 2025

t age twenty-seven, Andrew Feldmár accepted a tentative offer from his supervisor, Zenon Pylyshyn, a participant in the first experiments with LSD-25, to experience an LSD trip. Following that initiation, he took various other substances, always returning to LSD. During his apprenticeship with R. D. Laing, he was trained in Laing’s approach to LSD-therapy. A few years later, the use of these substances was prohibited. Now, after more than forty years, research has begun again into the healing possibilities of psychedelic psychotherapy. A movement has begun to have psychedelics, entheogens, and empathogens accepted worldwide as legal. However, training in how to use them varies.
