Didn't think it could work but....., 2010-08-24
Well, I read this book last week with a feeling of serious scepticism - "This is just someone's attempt to make money from smokers who are trying to quit", "If I can't do it by myself what sort of difference is one book going to make", "I've been smoking for a very long time now, and tried to quit many times, if this doesn't work does that mean I'll be stuck forever?!" etc....

I finished the book with a mixture of excitement and nervousness on Sunday night, put out my last cigarette AND...It really does appear to be working!!! Usually a quit attempt would mean Nicotine gum, stress and depression; but I am now on day 2 of being a non-smoker, without any sort of substitute, and although it hasn't been entirely pleasant it really has been quite easy! Also, although the Nicotine Monster has been trying to get me to cave-in I know that I won't because it will do nothing for me!

If you (or someone you love) are trying to stop then you could do a lot worse than to try this book. It's really not that expensive for what it is, if it doesn't work then at least you tried....but if it does then you too can say:

"Yippee! I don't have to put those filthy things in my mouth any more!"

Successful Meditation, 2010-08-28
This book was recommended to me by a Clinical Psychologist who, prior to Pain Management Clinic, was helping me to cope with severe pain. Although at times the book was a little 'heavy going' it is very useful to now have on my bookshelf for referral. The CD which accompanied the book is extremely helpful - I use 'Body Scan' every day and am now moving on to other forms of meditation. Although this form of help has not made the pain disappear, it has certainly helped me to cope much better. I find it invigorating.

If you are going to get one book on general medicine then get this one. It is excellent. Great onloine features mean you can print things out, great for assignements and revision. Obviously best to get the latest version (this one is 2009) to stay up to date with disease management etc. Highly recommended!

Great book, holds your hand through a consultation!, 2010-06-14
Great value, nice and easy to use, everything clearly laid out in a logical and structured way. It's allowed me as a medical student to get through a few GP consultations quite smoothly and enabled me to present back to the doctor with reasonable confidence.

I definitely recommend this as a resource for a medical student, especially in your clinical years.

Benefitted a lot, 2010-03-19
To potential buyers of this book

In the last two years I suffered from mild depression after a major incident and the way those people at that period that surrounded me i.e employer, the police and boyfriend at that time. The chose to behave rather abnormal towards me during the aftermath. It really shocked me to the core that I was experiencing horrid people outside of my family. I am not naive enough to say that evil people do not exist, just when you personally experience only then can you absorb the reality of it. I needed to be shown compassion, caring and supportive emotions. In the end all I received emotionally was ultimate selfishness from parties.

I was so distraught I seeked professional counselling and it did assist me rather than not attending. It made me see elements why these people treated me so badly. Asked further question and without discussing it with them. Figure out feasible outcomes to explain their behaviour with my counsellor.

Now two years from passed and I felt upset though not depressed as before. I thought I would approach it differently on this occasion. I would purchase a self-help book on the natural and common disorder we all as human beings will identify and more than likely encounter.

This in comparison is more benefitical to me because it has scientific answers to why the human brain reacts as it does. Like with the counselling within the book there aren't answers for everything. If we could answer every question in life generally we would be laughing.
After explanations withing chapters that seem very long, though it you have the a real interest in the topic you can wizz through them at speed. It made me realise that I am normal to feel depressed after all I have experienced and no one will know how I do unless you have experience the same. What I loathe is people having that reassuring saying 'I understand what your going through' to be kind. I prefer it people admitted that they didn't and re-phrase it as 'I don't know exactly it is like your bad experience, though I am trying to understand. If they use the cliche I understand what your going through during a traumatic time. For me it devalues your sorrow and makes it seem that your making a mountain of a mole hill situation.

Prior to submitting a review. I have already recommended the self-help book to my friends. Personally in comparison with counselling I benefitted more from this self-help book than counselling. Though it hasn't discouraged me from counselling I would balance both. Life is a balancing act with every element.

Worth every page this book!

Mind over Matter, 2010-09-01
This book was recommended to me by my therapist, I started seenig her a few weeks back after my sister passed away suddenly. My Husband left me over a year ago and I had not realised how much an impact the the break up had on my personal life. I believe this book was written for me, I find it very helpfull especially in understanding my feelings of loss,& is helping me gain back the self esteem that I once had.I was slowly sinking into a deep state of depressed was pushig all the people who cared for me away.
I would highly reccommend it.

A BIG 10 out of 10.

Marie.

A Handy Delight, 2010-08-18
Thank you Chris Cheyette. All the dietitians I know are envious that you have come up with this wonderful book. I use this everyday at work. It has been the most useful tool I have had as a diabetes specialist nurse. Looking back since I bought it, I have used in every discussion in appointments with people I see! Using the photographs to judge portion sizes (because you have a selection on each page) is extremely useful to try and work out carb: insulin ratio used at each meal. The photographs are of foods readily available here in the UK, although it would be a handy delight when on holiday abroad as well. People I have introduced to this book have found the rice and pasta pages very useful. Also the alcohol pages too. There is an iphone app available too.
