This book is a practical guide in understanding how to prevent HIV
transmission, to recognize risk behaviors, and to add something
else to their repertoires. It aims to empower clinicians and
provide a sense of security and competence with the recognition and
understanding of some of the psychiatric illnesses that complicate
and perpetuate the HIV pandemic that continue to persist throughout
every area of the world despite the magnitude of the progress that
has transformed the illness from a rapidly fatal to chronic illness
that is no longer life-limiting. Missing in most of the literature
on HIV is the subtle, and sometimes not so subtle, contribution of
psychiatric symptoms, psychiatric illness, and risk behaviors that
drive the pandemic and serve as catalysts for new infections. This
practical guide provides state-of-the-art understanding of not only
prevention but also a way to recognize risk behaviors, psychiatric
symptoms, and psychiatric illnesses that will demystify and decode
the sometimes enigmatic and frustrating reasons for nonadherence
with diagnostic procedures and life-saving treatments and care. All
behaviors and pathology are covered as well as the resources and
treatments available. The goal of this text is to refresh knowledge
on the current state of psychiatric illness management among people
living with HIV, to provide a concise volume on the psychiatric
aspects of HIV prevention and treatment that substantially impact
the overall care of the patient, and to help understand the
psychiatric catalysts of the pandemic Written by experts in the
field, HIV Psychiatry: A Practical Guide for Clinicians provides
enduring guidance to medical and other professionals caring for
complicated clinical patients as they face ongoing challenges in
working with persons with HIV and AIDS.
