You Are Not Sick


Book Description

''YOU DON'T GET WET BECAUSE IT'S RAINING, YOU GET WET BECAUSE YOU DON'T USE AN UMBRELLA.''I'm Dilek. I'm the volunteer editor of the book. I have witnessed some of the writer's struggle as the ideas emerged. I witnessed that the book you hold is not an ordinary book, and I want you to be a witness, too. In the introductory text, I chose to say something about the author rather than the book. The book will introduce itself to you when you read it.Izzet Güllü is a psychologist who works in state hospitals in the province of Malatya in eastern Turkey. Not everyone knows him in his country yet. Maybe he will be known around the world, before he is recognized in his country. Even though he has no such concerns, he deserves this. He's a good-hearted, courageous man besides being a psychologist and writer. For years, he has been struggling with the structural mistakes in his sector and advocating contemporary, democratic and universal values in his country, in which almost all of the population consists of Muslims. He has quite bright ideas, with original detections related to many areas.Years ago, as an experienced psychologist at the hospital where he works, he discovers a new approach to his field's problems. He sees that this psychology model, which he has shaped around the idea "You get wet because you don't use umbrellas not because it's raining heavily." Not to become famous and rich by establishing a center right away; He prefers to explain this technique with all the technical details by making more than 300 videos and to offer them to the benefit of a wider audience. Thus, thousands of people in their homes could get rid of their problems. In a short time, in the eyes of thousands of people, he becomes an angel of goodness and a hero. He does not settle down with that, of course. First, he established a publishing house with limited facilities. For this book to be published, the publishing house is active for months through his own means. He doesn't want his book to be published from any publishing house just like an ordinary work and only benefit people in his country. Then he provides the translation of the book through his own means. Thus, he presents his approach to the benefit of humanity of the whole world and presents it to all humanity. He brings brand-new perspectives to psychological processes such as anxiety, fear, anxiety, distress, emotion, feelings etc. This breaks the built-in subconsciously learned false perceptions.He does not decipher the great "mental illness" lie and others, and does not convince people that they are not sick. He introduces people to the healing power of the belief that "I am not sick" in their homes. It provides home self-treatment for problems such as panic attacks, obsession, anxiety and depression, and also provides a very effective opportunity for mental vaccination to people who want to protect themselves and their loved ones against such problems. This text is my introductory text as a volunteer editor of the book. I don't know how much I could put out of what I have been thinking. Perhaps by reading this work, you want to know both the content and the author yourself. I believe this will be much more accurate.

Sick To Death and Not Going to Take It Anymore!


Book Description

Just a few generations ago, serious illness, like hazardous weather, arrived with little warning, and people either lived through it or died. In this important, convincing, and long-overdue call for health care reform, Joanne Lynn demonstrates that our current health system, like our concepts of health and disease, developed at a time when life was mostly short, serious illnesses and disabilities were common at every age, and dying was quick. Today, most Americans live a long life, with the disabilities and discomforts of progressive chronic illness appearing only during the final chapters of their life stories. Sick to Death and Not Going to Take It Anymore! maintains that health care and community services are not set up to meet the needs of the large number of people who face a prolonged period of progressive illness and disability before death. Lynn offers what she calls an "owner's manual for the health care system," which lays out facts, concepts, strategies, and action plans for genuine reform and gives the reader new ways to interpret information creatively, imagine innovative possibilities, and take steps to implement them.
