Lack of insight

Unknown userMember03 Jan 2017, 6:53 pm AEDT

Lack of insight

I have been recommended a book by Xavier Amador "I am Not Sick, I Do Not Need Help"
His focus is how to get a patient to accept help when they cannot see or accept they have a mental health problem.

I have not read the book but have watched his lectures on YouTube and others might find his approach helpful.

Part 1:

Part 2:

This is a coping method that the Qld mental health resources for carers website suggests.
