Understanding Mental Objects (The New Library of Psychoanalysis #Vol. 22)
by Meir PerlowThe ways in which an individual (the subject) relates to and perceives other people (his or her 'objects') has always been a preoccupation of psychoanalysis and in recent years a plethora of concepts has grown up in the literature. In this ground-breaking study, Meir Perlow sets out to clarify the changing meanings of the different concepts from context to context, discussing in depth the theoretical issues underlying them. The book begins with an historical survey of how mental objects have been understood in the various 'schools' of psychoanalysis as they have developed. These include Freud and his associates, the object-relations approaches of Klein, Fairbairn and Bion, orientations derived from ego psychology such as those of Schafer and Kernberg, and the self orientation of Winnicott and Kohut. In Part Two the author discusses the conceptual and clinical issues involved in the major differences between the concepts. Finally, in Part Three he delineates three basic meanings of the concepts of mental objects as they have emerged in the literature and shows how they are related to ongoing issues in contemporary psychoanalysis. This long overdue clarification of a complex area, with its wide ranging and imaginative grasp of the different theories about objects, will be an invaluable reference for all psychoanalysts and psychologists.

Perlstein reveals what's really going on under kids' don't-touch-me facade while they grapple with schoolwork, puberty, romance, and identity. A must-read for parents and educators, Not Much Just Chillin' offers a trail map to the baffling no-man's-land between child and teen.

¿Puedo hablar de mi salud mental!
by Perra de Satán EsnorquelDos personas cucú te explican que ir al psicólogo no es ninguna locura. Desde su exitoso pódcast, ¿Puedo hablar!, Enrique Aparicio (Esnórquel) y Beatriz Cepeda (Perra de Satán) rompen tabúes y tratan con naturalidad cuestiones como la ansiedad, la depresión, los trastornos de la conducta alimentaria o la ideación suicida. El libro ¿Puedo hablar de mi salud mental! es el puente que quieren tender a todas las personas que intuyen que hay algo en su vida que falla, pero no se atreven a pedir ayuda. Su ejemplo, el de dos personas para las que la terapia ha sido fundamental, puede servir de impulso para quienes saben que deben arreglar algo en su cabeza, aunque no sepan bien lo que es. «Durante mucho tiempo creí que el sufrimiento era intrínseco a la vida, una consecuencia natural de hacerse mayor. En terapia empecé a deshacer el precario castillo de naipes sobre el que había construido mi visión del mundo: descubrí que ser gay y gordo no solo eran dos simpáticas circunstancias, sino partes de mi identidad que me habían expuesto a una serie de violencias que me condicionaban. La ayuda profesional me dado herramientas fundamentales. Por eso quiero que, si crees que la necesitas, acudas a ella cuanto antes». Enrique Aparicio, Esnórquel «Cuando empecé a engordar mi vida cambió por completo. Pasé de ser una niña sin problemas a una con un problema muy gordo. Nuestra sociedad hace creer a las niñas que engordar es algo muy grave contra lo que deben luchar. Cuando iba al médico y me quejaba de los nervios, ya que no sabía lo que era la ansiedad, le explicaba que sufría ataques, dolores de cabeza muy frecuentes y otros síntomas. La única respuesta que recibía era: Tienes que adelgazar, haz deporte y come menos. Acabé desarrollando un trastorno de la conducta alimentaria. Si he contado mi historia y he escrito este libro es para ponérselo más fácil a otras personas». Beatriz Cepeda, Perra de Satán
