New books about mental illness on Amazon.com

NAMI Texas has done it again!(With a little help from me as the editor.)

We have a group of books for sale on Amazon.com. Visions for Tomorrow, The Basics.There is a series of these "digests", each covering a mental illness in the VFT curriculum, providing basic and valuable information for families who are dealing with a first time crisis or still trying to get information to better provide for their child's needs. These books from the original Visions for Tomorrow curriculum are to provide basic information to the general public.

Utilizing key information and strategies, there is a book for most of the major diagnosis.Each book will deal with the symptoms of the diagnosis, information on the brain, tips, empathy, record keeping, communication strategies, coping and basics on the justice system and advocacy. While this is not the full VFT curriculum, it is a good starter book of information on just what is says – the basics. Included as well is information about NAMI and how to join.

The list soon to be available is:
Diagnosis - Bipolar Disorder and Depression
Diagnosis - Borderline Personality
Disorder Diagnosis - Eating
Disorders Diagnosis - Schizophrenia and Schizoaffective Disorder
