医科学生在本科阶段学习基础科学和临床科学。精神科医生和其他医生都认为病人可以参加他们的住院治疗项目。在医学教育中,医生的疾病话题很少被讨论。那些亲身经历过严重疾病的医生和那些没有经历过严重疾病的医生之间的差异通常都是未经检查的。就好像“站在病人的角度思考”是一个如此压倒性的话题,以至于它也成为了我们的标签。精神病学与其他学科的不同之处在于,精神科医生更依赖于他自己的生活经历,并且在不同的人际关系中扮演着重要的角色。在《华尔街日报》(the wall street journal)的一篇分析文章中,施瓦茨和西尔弗都是严重疾病的幸存者,他们探讨了这种昂贵的生活方式如何影响医生和病人。这本书是由不同专家撰写的文章的合集,从各个方面探讨了这个很少被探讨的话题。第一节“个人反思”探讨了严重疾病对分析师的影响。本节分为三章,第一章是《拒绝服务中的Ana - lyic态度》,作者:jacob A.

T he use and abuse of drugs and alc ohol ha ve recently gained grea ter attention both from the public and the medical profession . Desp ite increasing cognizance of its un fo r tunate consequences, substance use has become a more pervasive element of conte mporary society. As substance abuse ha s come to affect more segments of the population, it is not surprising that this problem a lso has affected the mentally ill. Awareness of the mentally ill subs ta nce ab user ha s grown , a lthough this population has not been well studied or well served by th e mental health system . These dually diagnosed patients often a re depict ed as the square pegs of psychiatry, not quite fitting into the round hol e of menta l health treatment. The reason for this is clear. Because of the curren t structure of th e mental health service delivery syste m , psychiatric and subs tance abuse services are provided almost exclusivel y by independent syste ms (1 ,2). As a result , those patients who are perhaps most in need of treatment are most likel y to fall through the cracks of the system. Providing services for this group of patients represents a clinical and administrative challenge, wh ich has no t bee n adequately addressed by the psychiatric profession . In this paper, I suggest that psychiatrists can accept greater responsibility for working with th e d ually di agnosed , and that this responsibility could begin with th e psych iatrist-i n-tra in ing. Although the prob lem may be difficult to overcome, psychiatry is in a unique position to accept this responsibility, effect changes in th e syste m , and have a positive impact on the lives of patients with dual diagnoses.

Providing services for this group of patients represents a clinical and administrative challenge, wh ich has no t bee n adequately addressed by the psychiatric profession . In this paper, I suggest that psychiatrists can accept greater responsibility for working with th e d ually di agnosed , and that this responsibility could begin with th e psych iatrist-i n-tra in ing. Although the prob lem may be difficult to overcome, psychiatry is in a unique position to accept this responsibility, effect changes in th e syste m , and have a positive impact on the lives of patients with dual diagnoses.","PeriodicalId":142486,"journal":{"name":"Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128329716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

《精神分析的治疗和理论》对于任何希望更全面地了解精神分析的住院医生来说都是一本很好的读物。哈,真的。施瓦兹,IVLD。他在本网站上发表了一篇文章,其中包括6篇16页的书,内容涉及有关死亡的广泛主题。这本书从一个分析概念的概览演变而来,并将这些理论扩展到具体的条件,如工作抑制和工作行为。总而言之,分析这一理论的最重要的一点是,孩子的发育是由于母亲在孩子发育过程中缺乏系统资源造成的。对孩子和她利用孩子来满足自己的自恋需求之间存在着一种内在的矛盾。父亲被发现是爱孩子的,他被发现是爱孩子的,被发现是爱孩子的,被发现是爱孩子的,而病人很少和频繁地接触原始场景。病人吞食食物和用手指按压喉咙导致呕吐之间有一个类比,这代表了父母双方同时发生的相同症状。成功的秘诀在于,这是一件很平常的事,但人们相信,这在高娱乐功能的成年人中很常见。第二种情况是,成功和职业成功的人肯定不会受到影响。这是一种常见于女性医生、护士以及其他职业的疾病。患有贪食症的人往往已婚,而且性行为往往比不服用避孕药的人更频繁。抑郁症更常见,不仅在贪食症中有报道,但自杀和因情绪激动而死亡的情况并不像现实中那样严重。对于一个高度有趣的专业人士来说,很容易对本文中描述的部分症状感到震惊;因此,在阅读这本书时,人们会发现越来越多的人想要在DSM-III-R之外发现饥饿和贪食症。医学博士Dan iel G . escnsway在他的著作《暴食症和饥饿症》中强调,这种症状并不是一种严重的精神疾病,而是一种人格障碍的潜在反映。这是一个清晰的、长期的解决方案,它为我们建立了一个坚实的基础,使我们能够更好地理解人类的局限性。在一篇文章中,我们看到了C . J .章。他和J.K.罗琳在书中写道:“是什么导致了我的暴食症。
