علاج الأمراض النفسية ومشاكل الادمان
In psychiatry we work with a set of preconceptions about what it is—preconceptions shaped by the fact that information about psychiatry is omnipresent in popular culture. Taxi drivers, CEOs, teachers, and ministers often feel qualified to offer information and advice about how to handle “psychiatric problems” even though they may be unaware of distinctions as fundamental as the difference between psychiatry and psychology.
the term psychiatry evokes a potpourri of associations—Freud’s couch, Jack Nicholson receiving electroconvulsive therapy in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Dr. Phil discussing sexual adjustment on television.
It is unfortunate that such preconceptions are so pervasive, but fortunate that most of them are in error.
What is psychiatry? It is the branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mental illnesses. Some of these illnesses are very serious, such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, and the various mood disorders. Others may be less serious, but still very significant, such as anxiety disorders and personality disorders
Why to be a psychiatrist?
“Psychiatrists,” which means literally “physicians who heal the mind”. We are psychiatrist because we are fascinated by the human brain—the most complex and interesting organ in the human body. All of our emotions, thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors arise from the workings of that furrowed and folded chunk of tissue that is so carefully protected inside our skulls. Because we want to understand the human mind and spirit as well as the human brain. Because we are interested in people, and we like to work with them as individuals.
We like to think about people within the context of the social matrix in which they live, to skillfully elicit a “life narrative” that summarizes their past and current experiences, and to use that information to better understand how their symptoms arise and can be treated. Each person we encounter is a new adventure, a new voyage of discovery, and a new life story. Patterns tend to generalize across individuals, yet each patient is unique. This is what makes psychiatry challenging, intellectually rich, complex, and even enjoyable— despite the fact that we often care for people who suffer intensely and for whom we wish we could offer even more help. We are privileged to explore the most private and personal aspects of people’s lives and to help them achieve healthier lives.
Finally mental illnesses are among the most clinically important diseases from which human beings suffer. Four mental illnesses are among the top 10 diseases affecting people between ages 15 and 44 years: depression, alcohol misuse, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.
يقول الدكتور ابراهيم ناجي ... "قد عشت أؤمن أن المريض ليس حالة كما يقول الأطباء كثيرا وإنما هو «إنسان»، وان العلاج لا يكون في تذكرة الدواء، وإنما في فهم ذلك الإنسان، في مقاسمته آلامه، في الإصغاء لمتاعبه، في بذل العطف الصادق له، في منحه الحنان الذي فقده في العالم الواسع، وضاقت الدنيا به على رحبها."
في هذه الصفحه نسعى لفهم الانسان .. وسبر أغوار النفس ...
نشبع شغفاً كبيراً في معرفة كيفية عمل العقل, والدوافع والحاجات الانسانية والسلوك البشري.
لنعين الانسان في تحقيق ذاته وأن يكون موجوداً فعلاً ..منتجاً .. حراً .. سعيداً .. راضياً .. واثقاً بالله .. متصلاً بالناس..
