Tyrannen in meinem Kopf

Be free from the tyranny of intrusive thoughts. Almost everyone involuntarily thinks things they don't want to think. However, some people can't shake these thoughts from their minds. At the edge of a platform, they might think, "What if I jump now?" They don't jump, but they continue to wonder whether they are at risk of suicide. Or they might suddenly think about harming someone and constantly question what such a thought might "reveal" about them. Intrusive thoughts cause fear and often lead to shame. Involuntary thoughts are not conscious decisions, and their content does not provide insights into a person's character. The harder you try to get rid of a thought, the more persistently it sticks. The authors expose many assumptions about obsessive thoughts and present effective techniques to overcome them. The described self-help program allows for a life free from the tyranny of intrusive thoughts.
