    About the book: 2016 / 14.9% of men and 22% of women will face some kind of mental disorder in the coming year . According to WHO statistics, out of a hundred people, seven have depression, three have bipolar disorder, one is a sociopath, and one has a high chance of becoming schizophrenic. Anyone, absolutely anyone, can develop a serious or not so serious mental disorder. Sounds like a disaster? Not at all, if you have at least basic knowledge about the structure of the psyche and modern methods of treatment. How to understand what is happening to you and explain it to your family? How to learn to distinguish objective reality from strange products of your consciousness? And how can we understand who is generally healthy and who is not, if the concept of “norm” is not as clear as we would like? Daria Varlamova and Anton Zainiev are familiar with the topic firsthand. Both were faced with clinical depression, its rejection by others and the lack of adequate information on psychiatry. Then they rummaged through a heap of scientific publications, talked with experts and sorted out not only depression, but also other common diseases: bipolar, antisocial, anxiety and borderline disorders, ADHD, Asperger's syndrome and schizophrenia. The result is a book unique to Russia, which will help you not to go crazy if you discover a mental disorder in yourself or your loved ones..
