false 44096 2 An estimated 5 million Americans suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and live diminished lives in which they are compelled to obsess about something or to repeat a similar task over and over. Traditionally, OCD has been treated with Prozac or similar drugs. The problem with medication, aside from its cost, is that 30 percent of people treated don't respond to it, and when the pills stop, the symptoms invariably return. <p>In <I>Brain Lock,</I> Jeffrey M. Schwartz presents a simple four-step method for overcoming OCD that is so effective, it's now used in academic treatment centers throughout the world. Proven by brain-imaging tests to actually alter the brain's chemistry, this method doesn't rely on psychopharmaceuticals. Instead, patients use cognitive self-therapy and behavior modification to develop new patterns of response to their obsessions. In essence, they use the mind to fix the brain. Using the real-life stories of actual patients, <I>Brain Lock</I> explains this revolutionary method and provides readers with the inspiration and tools to free themselves from their psychic prisons and regain control of their lives. 43469 1996 Brain Lock: Free Yourself from Obsessive-Compulsive Behavior total:64|5:22|4:21|3:17|2:3|1:1| 64 252 111 16 4 0 false false Sat Nov 07 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 07 08:17:33 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 07 08:39:36 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Jun 07 09:11:58 -0700 2007 Fri Jul 20 03:36:00 -0700 2007 more...]]> 4 0 false false Fri Jan 16 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 16 09:29:37 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 16 09:32:39 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sun Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Nov 09 11:17:20 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 09 11:19:11 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Wed Apr 15 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 31 19:47:31 -0700 2009 Fri May 08 14:36:59 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Tue May 05 08:49:14 -0700 2009 Tue May 05 08:51:52 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Sep 11 07:26:00 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 11 07:26:00 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Mon Apr 20 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Feb 08 13:55:25 -0800 2008 Tue Apr 21 19:42:41 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Nov 13 19:16:38 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 13 19:17:50 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Wed Dec 19 09:26:06 -0800 2007 Wed Dec 19 09:26:45 -0800 2007 5 0 false false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Wed Jan 30 11:15:10 -0800 2008 Wed Jan 30 11:16:40 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Sat Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Tue Feb 26 08:37:04 -0800 2008 Mon Mar 17 08:53:09 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Thu Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2002 Thu Oct 11 06:14:48 -0700 2007 Mon Jul 21 08:58:57 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Wed Jan 30 12:16:22 -0800 2008 Sun Jan 18 13:16:44 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Tue Oct 02 19:44:48 -0700 2007 Tue Oct 02 19:47:12 -0700 2007 3 0 false false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Tue Apr 01 10:46:26 -0700 2008 Tue Apr 01 10:47:32 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sat Nov 07 10:00:53 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 07 10:00:53 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Oct 21 21:56:08 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 21 21:56:13 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sat Oct 17 22:14:03 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 17 22:14:03 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Oct 09 20:52:18 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 09 20:52:18 -0700 2009
