A must-read for modern mental healthIn 2022, the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service announced that the number of patients receiving treatment for depression exceeded 1 million.
Many people seek out hospitals for mental health, but there are still prejudices and misconceptions about psychiatry.
This book corrects such misunderstandings and provides helpful information on situations in which you should go to the hospital and how to choose a doctor and hospital.

A Guide for Those Afraid to Open the Door to a Psychiatrist
From symptom checklists for depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, adult ADHD, and trauma to hospital selection guides.
Everything you need to know about psychiatry!
Author of "Psychology for Adults Who Think Too Much" and "If I Had My Life to Live Over"
★ Highly recommended by psychiatrist Dr. Hye-Nam Kim ★
Endless, infinite competition, a performance-driven society where we must prove ourselves with results at every moment, and ever-increasing individualism and the nuclear family… Psychiatric symptoms like anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and trauma have become all too commonplace in modern life, where stress is rampant.
The problem is that while people try to dismiss their symptoms as 'not serious enough to warrant a hospital visit', their illness and pain are deepening.
There are countless people who reluctantly seek out psychiatrists only after their long-standing symptoms worsen to the point where they are interfering with their health, interpersonal relationships, and work life.
One of the main reasons for the growing problem is that 'many people are still afraid to open the door to a psychiatrist.'
The author, a psychiatrist who meets patients in the field, explains in this book in an easy-to-understand manner, using neuroscientific evidence, that the psychiatric symptoms we commonly experience are not simply a matter of 'weak will' or 'a matter of determination', but rather 'diseases requiring treatment' caused by a complex interaction of various causes.
For those who know they need help but still wander around the psychiatric clinic with vague fear, we correct the widespread misconceptions about psychiatry and provide information on various psychiatric symptoms, checklists, hospital selection guides, and treatment processes, helping them objectively reflect on their current situation and more comfortably cross the threshold of a psychiatric clinic.
If you're afraid to open the door to a psychiatrist even though you know the difficulties you have, if a family member or close acquaintance is suffering from psychiatric symptoms, or if you've started psychiatric treatment but still can't focus on treatment due to lingering anxiety, this book will be a ray of light for each cautious step you take in the darkness!

Into the book
Few people who seek psychiatric care on their own are particularly unusual.
They rarely believe in extreme conspiracy theories, engage in violent protests, or inflict horrific harm on others.
Really strange people don't come to the hospital on their own.
People who come to the hospital on their own are ordinary people we meet in our lives.
I explain that they simply have an unusually high resolution of mind.
Those with higher resolution have more sophisticated camera lenses.
While others see the world through 1 million pixels, these people see it through 10 million pixels.
It clearly captures even the smallest details that others cannot see.
As a result, there are many things that are annoying and many things to be mindful of.
What others perceive as a stinging pain feels like the skin is being torn.
--- From "Is psychiatry only for people with serious problems?"
The brain has a habit of setting a long-lasting state as the default state.
If depression persists for a long time, the brain sets depression as its default state.
When a healthy and peaceful mind is the default, when you become depressed or anxious, you find this situation uncomfortable.
But as that period gets longer, I start to get confused about what I was like originally.
And we try to default to the emotions we've felt for the longest time, namely depression and anxiety, and stay in that state.
You shouldn't let your brain get to that point.
It is very important to get treatment early and get my baseline back to a healthy state.
--- From "Does psychiatric treatment make you stupid?"
One of the most concerning factors that can cause people to hesitate to seek psychiatric treatment is medication.
People who go to other departments and ask for more medication are reluctant to take psychiatric medication.
The background is the belief that once you start taking psychiatric medication, it is difficult to stop taking it.
There is a similar belief that 'psychiatric medications are narcotic and therefore addictive and highly dependent.'
First of all, psychiatric medications are not narcotics.
This is a misunderstanding that arose because psychiatric drugs, called ‘psychotropic drugs,’ were legally classified as ‘narcotics’ and managed together with narcotics.
'Psychotropic' means working 'towards' the mind.
Of course, because it affects the mind, it should not be misused.
So the country strictly controls it along with drugs.
Drugs belonging to this narcotic category are classified into categories 'A to C' according to the level of danger, and the closer they are to 'A', the more dangerous they are.
Psychiatric drugs are generally included in 'La'.
Therefore, if you receive a prescription after sufficient consultation with a specialist, there is no problem.
--- From "Is it hard to quit psychiatric drugs once you start?"
Don't put too much meaning into a doctor's career and title.
In general, the doctor that patients want is one who treats them warmly and with interest and enthusiasm.
A brilliant career or high academic achievement does not guarantee this.
We live in an era where hospitals also need marketing.
Doctors, who are obligated to keep patient information confidential, cannot promote their treatment cases.
So, a very common way to demonstrate expertise is to:
You can prove yourself by joining various academic societies, becoming a full member, or by completing professional courses or workshops.
Of course it's a great thing.
However, not all courses require the same amount of training or effort.
Some professional courses require two full years of training, while others issue certificates in just one day.
In other words, one line of experience does not guarantee a doctor's expertise or quality of care.
Have you ever felt like your resume didn't tell the whole story when you were looking for a job? Doctors are no exception.
They rarely believe in extreme conspiracy theories, engage in violent protests, or inflict horrific harm on others.

Publisher's Review

+ If you have just started psychiatric treatment!
A TO Z: What You Need to Know Before Opening a Psychiatric Clinic
When I wrote my first book in 2002, I was told that it “lowered the threshold for psychiatry.”
It was said that it made the existence of psychiatry known to people suffering from mental pain.
22 years later, I came across this book.
And I was very happy.
Many people know they need psychiatric help, but they are still afraid to open the door and step into a psychiatric clinic.
While you hesitate like that, the illness and pain deepen.
The author approaches them quietly and speaks.
Very easy to understand and fun.
This book is like a map or compass for a lost traveler, and it serves as a kind guide for those who encounter storms on the journey of life.
With this book, all life's travelers will be able to continue their long journey without losing hope.
With a more solid step.
- Dr. Kim Hye-nam, a psychiatrist (author of "Psychology for Adults Who Think Too Much" and "If I Had My Life to Live Over")
The author examines the 'biological', 'environmental', and 'psychological/cognitive' causes of common depression, anxiety, obsession, addiction, insomnia, and trauma.
This makes it clear that these symptoms are not simply a matter of will or mindset, but rather a 'disease requiring treatment' that is caused by a combination of various factors.
In particular, through clinical cases of each symptom, neuroscientific analysis, treatment process, and checklist, it helps readers directly compare their symptoms with themselves and reflect on them, thereby helping them understand and accept themselves more deeply.
We also examine widespread unsubstantiated rumors and misconceptions about psychiatric medications and treatments, based on medical evidence.
This guides patients considering treatment or receiving treatment so that they can receive treatment based on accurate information.
In addition, this book covers everything from the key information you need to know to finding the right hospital and doctor for you, to the specific steps you will face during treatment, how to take medication to enhance the treatment effect, and how to deal with side effects.
"How to Use Psychiatry as Told by a Specialist" will serve as a caring guide to readers, helping them use psychiatry wisely by providing them with the necessary information and alleviating unnecessary fears, just as the author hopes.
