{"product_id":"obsessions-7","title":"Obsessions","description":"This book explores the interrelatedness between obsessive compulsive disorders, thinking disorders, and depression. The issue is considered both from a psychiatric viewpoint and from a psychodynamic perspective. The age of the cases presented in the book ranges from childhood through adolescence to adulthood. Obsessions: The Twisted Cruelty is a challenging contribution to contemporary clinical debate, especially regarding the role of analytically-oriented psychotherapy in the treatment of OCD, and how to deal with the psychiatric treatment and combine the two approaches, while keeping the focus on the transference-countertransference interplay. After the first theoretical chapter, the relationship between obsessions and thinking impairments is discussed, with specific reference to delusional ideation. A section entitled \"the anal conundrum\" follows. Encopresis and anal masturbation during childhood are discussed, as well as the identification of the child with a maternal \"faecal object. The last section explores the connection with depression, and some specific features of sadism.","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54244944511320,"sku":"9780367104276","price":167.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780367104276.jpg?v=1769621437","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/obsessions-7","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
