This book was written to illuminate and clarify the pivotal role patterns of avoidance have on the development and maintenance of depression. All too often this author has seen both laypersons and professionals view and treat people suffering from chronic depression as if their condition is something they are simply born with, an attitudinal problem, or a condition caught like some type of disease. Consequently, their symptoms of depression tend to receive minimal or superficial treatment in the form of antidepressant medication or pep talks aimed at getting them out of their chronic state of discontent. Unfortunately, these simple answers to complex issues tend to miss the core causes of how they became depressed in the first place and/or what is preventing them from getting out of their misery. This book focuses on the common causes of chronic depression, including patterns of avoiding responsibility, stress, more realistic perspectives, acceptance of key aspects of living, as well as inappropriate escape patterns such as excessive use of drugs, eating disorders, compulsive gambling, etc. Research completed by the author on the relationship between patterns of avoidance and chronic depression is reviewed, along with pertinent case study examples of how his clients backed themselves into depression and either successfully emancipated themselves from this psychological prison or continued to languish within such. Finally, the critical roles of acceptance and purposeful living will be discussed, including 32 acceptance guidelines proposed by the author for those interested in self-help or application in the service of others. This book was written at a level appropriate for educated laypersons, undergraduate and graduate students in psychology and related fields, as well as people considering counseling or currently in psychotherapy. Additionally, it was written for practitioners in the mental health field who want a resource at a basic level which blends both traditional theories and therapies with more contemporary approaches, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

These dilemmas encompass not only the difficult challenges therapists face everyday, but also the passions and profound disappointments of human intimate partnerships. The purpose of this book is not only to explore and give case illustrations of these dilemmas, but also to give therapists strategies to use and help them understand and handle their own profound experiences while doing this work.

A Guide to Healthy Anger Expression How do you express your anger? Do you blow up? Quietly seethe? Or do you try to pretend that you're really not angry at all and just hope the feelings will go away? Most of us express anger in more than one way, but we also tend to be creatures of habit, falling back on a few predictable styles when we feel angry. Unfortunately, while some styles are appropriate in some situations, others are not—and consistently using an inappropriate style is a sure way to find yourself saddled with a huge anger problem. This book examines the eleven most common styles of anger expression and helps you learn how to communicate your anger in healthy ways. Learn which anger styles work for different situations—and which ones lead to certain disaster. Find out how to become more flexible and creative at expressing your anger. Once you understand the whole range of anger styles, you'll be able to better manage angry feelings and use your anger as a positive force for building a better life.

Employees are increasingly asked to make sophisticated decisions about their pension and healthcare plans. Yet recent research shows that the decisions 'real' people make are often not those of the careful and well-informed economic agent conventionally portrayed in economic research. Rather, decision-makers tend to operate with flawed information and make some of the most critical financial decisions of their lives lacking a full understanding of the options before them and the implications of their decisions. Pension Design and Structure explores the assumptions behind commonly-held theories of retirement decision-making, in order to draw out the consequences of frontier research in behavioral finance and economics for those interested in better design and structure of retirement pensions. Using large datasets newly provided by financial service firms and real-world experiments, this volume tests the hypotheses of this research. This is the first book to explore the implications of behavioral finance research for pensions and retirement studies. The authors blend cutting-edge research from several fields including Finance, Economics, Management, Sociology, and Psychology. The book will be of interest to pension plan participants and sponsors, financial service groups responsible for pensions, and retirement system regulators.
