Sedados: Cómo el capitalismo moderno creó la crisis de salud mental
¿Cuántas pastillas tomas al mes, a la semana, al día? Solo en Gran Bretaña, más del 20 % de los adultos ha consumido al menos una droga psiquiátrica al año. Lo que constata James Davies en su ensayo es que este imprudente aumento de la prescripción médica de fármacos psiquiátricos no ha disminuido el número y gravedad de las enfermedades mentales, sino todo lo contrario. A través de una extensa y profunda documentación, de entrevistas con expertos y de análisis detallados, el doctor James Davies ha llegado a la conclusión de que la comunidad médica está encarando mal el problema de las enfermedades mentales: en lugar de buscar el origen en el entorno y en los problemas sociales, el actual modelo médico se centra en situar el problema únicamente en el paciente y en su cerebro. Este audiolibro está narrado en castellano. - James Davies ha estudiado Antropología Social y Salud Mental y enseña en los departamentos de Ciencias de las Vida y Psicología en la Universidad de Roehampton. Obtuvo su doctorado en antropología social y médica en la Universidad de Oxford y también es un psicoterapeuta calificado. Es cofundador del Council for Evidence-based Psychiatry, que ahora es la secretaría del Grupo Parlamentario de Todos los Partidos para la Dependencia de Medicamentos Recetados.

Audiobook
Sedated: How Modern Capitalism Created our Mental Health Crisis
A provocative and shocking look at how western society is misunderstanding and mistreating mental illness. In Britain alone, more than 20% of the adult population take a psychiatric drug in any one year. This is an increase of over 500% since 1980 and the numbers continue to grow. Yet, despite this prescription epidemic, levels of mental illness of all types have actually increased in number and severity. Using a wealth of studies, interviews with experts, and detailed analysis, Dr James Davies argues that this is because we have fundamentally mischaracterised the problem. Rather than viewing most mental distress as an understandable reaction to wider societal problems, we have embraced a medical model which situates the problem solely within the sufferer and their brain. Urgent and persuasive, Sedated systematically examines why this individualistic view of mental illness has been promoted by successive governments and big business - and why it is so misplaced and dangerous. "A wonderful, moving and truly life-changing book. Sedated is an urgent intervention for post-pandemic society, written with expertise and clarity. Warning: it will cause irritation to powerful interests who fear us all becoming better informed about the root causes of so much human suffering." BARONESS SHAMI CHAKRABARTI, former Director of Liberty "James Davies is one of the most important voices on mental health in the world. This is a beautiful and deeply sane book. Everyone who's suffering - and wants to know how to make it stop - should read it right away." JOHANN HARI, author of Lost Connections "In this game-changing polemic, James Davies leaves us in no doubt: to tackle the mental health crisis we need major social and economic reform." NATHAN FILER, author of This Book will Change Your Mind about Mental Health
