About the book: 
Are you living under a shadow?
 
Do you or someone you love suffer from:
 
Chronic sadness
Obsessiveness
Outbursts of anger
The inability to finish tasks
Acute anxiety
Disabling discomfort in social situations
 
These are the "shadow syndromes" of major mental disorders that limit the lives, productivity, and happiness of millions of people.
 
Drawing on cutting-edge research, Drs. Ratey and Johnson challenge the most basic beliefs of our mental health professionals by uncovering the biological factors that often determine our personalities.  They use real-life case studies to illustrate how shadow syndromes affect our everyday lives and how they can be treated–often dramatically–with diet, exercise, psychotherapy, and medication.
 
Shadow Syndromes is the revolutionary theory that sheds light on our life-limiting behaviors and offers the essential tools for changing them.  This book will liberate you and those you love.
