「醫生說你有精神病，一定要吃藥！」「我才沒有病，不要煩我！」協助重大精神障礙者就醫的第一本書如果親人不認為自己生病了，該如何協助他就醫？對重大精神疾病患者的親友而言，最傷腦筋的問題，就是病人「不知道自己生病」，不願意就醫。這種病識感的缺乏被稱為「病覺缺失症」，原因並非病人有防衛心或性格頑固，而是大腦功能失常的症狀。作者阿瑪多博士身為心理學者，是「病覺缺失症」的知名專家，而且他的哥哥就是思覺失調症患者。他從陪伴哥哥的慘烈過程及多年的醫療工作中，體會出與其說服病人「他病了」，不如先擱置這件事，轉而耐心傾聽、同理對方想法，找出雙方的共同目標，雙方才有可能結為治療伙伴，引導病人邁向康復。本書出版20年來，一直是協助重大精神障礙者就醫的經典書籍，現在在眾所期待之中出版了增訂版，阿瑪多博士將他所提倡的溝通手法歸納為LEAP©方法，也就是「傾聽Listening、同理Empathizing、贊同Agreeing、夥伴Partnering」四步驟。書中仔細說明LEAP©方法的原則和理論，以及如何實際和病人對話的範例。LEAP©方法在美國實踐超過20年，成效卓著，堪稱目前最有實效的協助方法。新版本還增添了非自願治療（強制就醫）的篇章，告訴讀者什麼狀況下需要做此決定，以及事後和病人修復關係的方法。此外，也收入心理治療、認知行為治療對思覺失調症患者的幫助、精神疾病與暴力等最新研究。儘管每位精神障礙者的需求都獨一無二，但阿瑪多博士所傳授的基礎，都能協助讀者改進溝通技巧，發展信任關係，將相互爭鬥的情景，扭轉為攜手合作的局面。——皮特．厄利（暢銷書作者，一位思覺失調症患者的父親）本書特色★協助精神障礙者就醫最重要的衛教書籍，出版20年後全新增訂★以最新研究闡明病人缺乏病識感的真相★詳盡說明在美國實踐超過20年的LEAP方法，為目前最有效的協助就醫方法★病患親友家屬、心理助人工作者、社工師、精神醫學專業人士都能受用的一本手冊
