Sinopse
'Deeply thoughtful and compassionate ... a fine book and accessible for the seasoned psychiatrist and general reader alike.' The British Journal of Psychiatry
As Featured on BBC Woman's Hour
Over the course of her 40-year career, psychiatrist and psychotherapist Penelope Campling has worked with patients from all walks of life, from survivors of abuse to ICU doctors struggling under the strain of Covid-19. She has seen many positive changes in how we approach mental health – and yet she is increasingly troubled by the state of our health services. Too often those suffering from serious mental illness are being neglected, locked away, even abused.
In On the Brink Campling takes us into the therapy room, offering unique insight into how we treat those in distress. She shows us how the progress made in a more optimistic era of psychiatry is fast being eroded; how our struggling healthcare system often fails those who need our support; and how crucial it is in today's uncertain world that we do not turn away.
Candid, compassionate and, above all, hopeful ... a story of troubled minds and how we try to heal them.
