Una mirada compasiva y valiente a la forma en que nos hablamos en los momentos difíciles.


Seleccionado por The New York Times como uno de los mejores títulos del año. Finalista del National Book Critics Circle. Estremecedor, real y, al mismo tiempo, esperanzador. Un acercamiento lúcido y tremendamente original a los abismos de la mente humana.


Cuando Rachel Aviv tenía tan solo 6 años, sus padres recibieron un demoledor diagnóstico para su hija: era anoréxica. Rachel, quien ni siquiera sabía lo que significaba la palabra, descubrió que probablemente era la persona que había sido etiquetada con ese trastorno a una edad más temprana.


A partir de esa experiencia, esta prestigiosa y combativa periodista cuestiona el beneficio o el perjuicio del diagnóstico en salud mental y se sumerge en cuatro casos reales, cada uno más impactante y revelador, para repasar cómo las etiquetas han determinado las décadas más recientes de la psiquiatría en el mundo occidental.


El ensayo de Rachel Aviv recoge una investigación fascinante y minuciosa sobre los abusos de esta rama de la medicina en cualquiera de sus disciplinas, y también pone énfasis en la importancia del entorno y de los otros en el proceso de curación. Es, además, un canto a la esperanza de superación de los trastornos mentales.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


A compassionate and brave look at how we talk to ourselves during difficult times.


Selected by The New York Times as one of the best titles of the year. Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. Stirring, real, and at the same time, hopeful. A lucid and tremendously original approach to the depths of the human mind.


When Rachel Aviv was just 6 years old, her parents received a devastating diagnosis for their daughter: she was anorexic. Rachel, who didn't even know what the word meant, discovered that she was probably the youngest person to be labeled with this disorder.


From that experience, this prestigious and combative journalist questions the benefit or harm of mental health diagnoses and delves into four real cases, each more impactful and revealing, to review how labels have determined recent decades of psychiatry in the Western world.


Rachel Aviv's essay presents a fascinating and thorough investigation into the abuses of this branch of medicine in any of its disciplines, and also emphasizes the importance of the environment and others in the healing process. It is, furthermore, a hymn to the hope of overcoming mental disorders.

Fits Cats not Dog size
Color: red&green
Sure these balls are cute, but most definitely not a dog size. I wouldn’t waste your money, unless you own a cat!

Not durable
Color: red&green
The description says for cats and dogs. My 6lb mini poodle tore it up in less than 40 minutes. The red one worked but the green one wouldnt even turn on. The indicator said it was fully charged but u plugged it in for a short time but nothing. I dont know if i can get a refund or not since the cover on the red one has been completely torn off. I dont recommend this product

This is an awesome toy for dogs and cats!
Color: red
This is such a cool toy for a dog or a cat. I bought it for my 28 pound Aussie doodle. She’s slightly laid up after an injury recently so I’m trying to come up with things she can play with in the house without excessive running. This totally keeps her engaged and she loves it. But I have to watch her because every once in a while she’ll just catch it and try and chew on the ball! But I’ve been sharing it with my neighbor who has a cat. She’s borrowing it today and her cat loves it too! It seems pretty durable overall but it certainly doesn’t want my dogs’s jaws trying to crack it into. You do hear a humming noise while it’s running but I think that’s to be expected. Mostly I just love how much it entertains both dogs and cats!!

So cute and entertaining to watch!
Color: pink
Bought for my miniature schnauzer. She didn’t know what to think at first but loves it now. It’s so much fun watching her play and keeps her busy! My dog isn’t much of a chewer and loves the movement/chase of this toy. Wouldn’t recommend for big dogs or chewers as there’s a plastic piece that can come off.

Color: blue
I just recieved this yesterday 5-23-2026. My new puppy loves it. But after it stopped working and I went to recharge it. it just will not recharge. I currently have it still trying to recharge. so I am not sure what to do other than trying to charge it. I may need to look for something else.
