DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis self-helf book begins with an entirely different premise compared to the pervasive practices of psychology. Traditionally, therapeutic psychology asks the question: "What is it about my bad brain chemistry, my bad biology, and my bad upbringing that creates the misery in which I am mired?" In contrast, "Changing Your Stripes" begins with an entirely different question, a more productive premise: "What is happening in my relationships with others, and what is my responsibility to be true to those relationships?" Because "Changing Your Stripes" is written from a Social Psychological perspective, it provides an alternative view on the issues of 1) Cause & Effect: The differences between how cause occurs in the physcial versus the behavioral realm); 2) Understanding Who You Are: You are more than the characteristic of your body, the most important aspect of Self is "how you are be-ing" with others; 3) Mental Illness/Disorder: Do you actually "have" a disorder, or are you really just "doing" dis-order; 4) Emotional Scars: How they really manifest, and how one can make them disappear.

It is a challenge to test these proposals on large animals living in the wild, but using a combination of careful observations, simple field experiments, comparative information, and logic, Caro concludes that black-and-white stripes are an adaptation to thwart biting fly attack.

As both a mother and one who struggles with anxiety and depression, I fully identify with Hannah's chaotic character. I can't wait to finish this story of destruction and hope!" "Such incredible vulnerability in sharing a story about real issues affecting so many, involving substance abuse and mental health issues. The author describes so many of the obstacles she encountered along the way so well I often times felt like I could truly relate to her experience. A story of self destruction that leads to a story of great hope!! Couldn't put it down!" "I started reading this and couldn't put it down. Hannah shares her story in a way that shows her honesty and the strength she has gained by living through her life's struggles. The way she writes makes the reader feel as if they are experiencing these events right along with Hannah and offer an insight into the way that addictions can hold the mind captive. This is an intense read but extremely worth it." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Four psychiatric wards Three rehabs Two jail cells And a suicide attempt... Hannah was told she would not make it to 25 with the way she was living. She had struggled with mental illness her entire life, but at 22 her demons came to a head at the grips of severe substance abuse, life-changing trauma, and two major deaths in her life. Hannah's struggles land her places no one ever hopes to grace; jail and psych wards lead her to the brink of death. Running out of options she's left with two choices: live or die. This heart-wrenching memoir combines recovery with bittersweet romance told in a raw presentation that immerses the reader into the author's dark state-of-mind in every page. Tiger Stripes is going to add a valuable voice to the conversation about women's mental health issues.
