Damon Tweedy M.D., "Facing the Unseen: The Struggle to Center Mental Health in Medicine"

From the New York Times bestselling author of Black Man in a White Coat comes a powerful and urgent call to center psychiatry and mental health care into the mainstream of medicine

As much as we all might wish that mental health problems, with their elusive causes and unsettling behaviors, simply did not exist, millions of people suffer from them, sometimes to an extreme extent. Many others face addiction to alcohol and other drugs, as overdose and suicide deaths abound. Yet the vast majority of doctors receive minimal instruction in treating these conditions during their lengthy medical training. This mismatch ignores the clear overlap between physical and mental distress, and too-often puts psychiatrists on the outside looking in as the medical system continues to fail many patients.

In Facing The Unseen, bestselling author, professor of psychiatry, and practicing physician Damon Tweedy guides us through his days working in outpatient clinics, emergency rooms, and hospitals as he meets people from all walks of life who are grappling with physical and psychological illnesses. In powerful, compassionate, and eloquent prose, Tweedy argues for a more comprehensive and integrated approach where people with mental illness have a health care system that places their full well-being front and center.


来自《黑人医生》这部纽约时报畅销书的作者达蒙·特韦德(Damon Tweedy M.D.)带来了一项强有力的、紧迫的要求,将精神科和心理健康护理纳入主流医学之中。

尽管我们都希望这些精神健康问题根本不存在,但实际上它们无处不在。数以百万计的人正在遭受着它们的影响,有时甚至严重到影响生活质量的程度。还有许多人面对着酒精和其他药物的上瘾问题,而 overdose 和自杀死亡事件频发。然而,在漫长的专业医学培训期间,绝大多数医生并没有接受有关治疗这些病症的充分训练。这种不匹配忽略了身体和精神痛苦之间的明显重叠,并且时常将精神科医生置于门外,而当医疗系统继续辜负许多患者时。

在《面对看不见的事物》(Facing the Unseen)这本书中,《黑人医生》作者、精神病学教授以及执业医生达蒙·特韦德带领我们参观他在门诊诊所、急诊室和医院工作的一天。他遇到来自各行各业的人们,这些人正挣扎于物理与心理疾病。特韦德以有力而充满同情心的笔触,为一个更为全面且整合的方法论辩护,即那些精神疾病的患者拥有一个将他们的整体福祉置于首位的健康护理体系。
