Una mirada compasiva y valiente a la forma en que nos hablamos en los momentos difíciles.


Seleccionado por The New York Times como uno de los mejores títulos del año. Finalista del National Book Critics Circle. Estremecedor, real y, al mismo tiempo, esperanzador. Un acercamiento lúcido y tremendamente original a los abismos de la mente humana.


Cuando Rachel Aviv tenía tan solo 6 años, sus padres recibieron un demoledor diagnóstico para su hija: era anoréxica. Rachel, quien ni siquiera sabía lo que significaba la palabra, descubrió que probablemente era la persona que había sido etiquetada con ese trastorno a una edad más temprana.


A partir de esa experiencia, esta prestigiosa y combativa periodista cuestiona el beneficio o el perjuicio del diagnóstico en salud mental y se sumerge en cuatro casos reales, cada uno más impactante y revelador, para repasar cómo las etiquetas han determinado las décadas más recientes de la psiquiatría en el mundo occidental.


El ensayo de Rachel Aviv recoge una investigación fascinante y minuciosa sobre los abusos de esta rama de la medicina en cualquiera de sus disciplinas, y también pone énfasis en la importancia del entorno y de los otros en el proceso de curación. Es, además, un canto a la esperanza de superación de los trastornos mentales.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


A compassionate and brave look at how we talk to ourselves during difficult times.


Selected by The New York Times as one of the best titles of the year. Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. Stirring, real, and at the same time, hopeful. A lucid and tremendously original approach to the depths of the human mind.


When Rachel Aviv was just 6 years old, her parents received a devastating diagnosis for their daughter: she was anorexic. Rachel, who didn't even know what the word meant, discovered that she was probably the youngest person to be labeled with this disorder.


From that experience, this prestigious and combative journalist questions the benefit or harm of mental health diagnoses and delves into four real cases, each more impactful and revealing, to review how labels have determined recent decades of psychiatry in the Western world.


Rachel Aviv's essay presents a fascinating and thorough investigation into the abuses of this branch of medicine in any of its disciplines, and also emphasizes the importance of the environment and others in the healing process. It is, furthermore, a hymn to the hope of overcoming mental disorders.

Chuckit!! Just Chuck it!!
Style: Sport, Size: Large
Chuck it further than your skinny little arms can chuck it. Doggo loved this, I loved this and when we were done Doggo promptly hid it under the porch so I couldn’t take it from him. It’s not a squeaky toy, it’s for fetch. You wing it out toward the yard and it flies, bounces if it’s lucky then is attacked in an adoring manner. We like it!!

Perfect toy for an active dog!
Color: Large size (7.9")
My dog absolutely loves this ball with handles! It’s quickly become one of his favorite toys, and he gets excited every time we bring it out to play. The vibrant colors are a huge plus—they make it super easy to spot in the grass, which saves a lot of time during outdoor play sessions. The handles are great for interactive play too, especially for tugging and tossing. I’m really impressed with how well it’s holding up. Even with constant pulling, tugging, and rough use, it’s remained durable and hasn’t shown any signs of wearing out. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase—and if my dog could write reviews, it would definitely get his paw stamp of approval! 🐾
