As a minister or pastoral worker it is highly likely that, at some
stage in your ministry, you will find yourself caring for people
with psychiatric problems and their families. "The Pastoral Care of
People with Mental Health Problems" provides an invaluable resource
to help you provide the best care for those suffering from the most
common problems, such as: depression, Alzheimer's disease,
anorexia, addiction to drugs or alcohol, post-traumatic stress
disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and anti-social
personality disorder.As well as outlining the main psychiatric
conditions and their treatments, the particular issues facing
pastoral workers are examined and some of the ethical issues
involved are discussed. Using a wealth of pastoral illustrations,
the book offers practical advice and guidance for the care of
individuals and families who find their lives turned upside down by
psychiatric illness. It addresses questions such as: How can I help
the family of a young girl who cuts herself? What is the difference
between depression and an abnormal grief reaction? And how can I
distinguish between a symptom of mental illness and genuine
religious revelation? In cases of severe mental illness it will be
necessary to work alongside medical, nursing and social work staff,
and guidance on how to do this effectively is given.
