Resilience

How Your Inner Strength Can Set You Free from the Past

By: Boris Cyrulnik

Cyrulink has healed people and countries." (The Times, London) Renowned French neuropsychiatrist and psychoanalyst Boris Cyrulnik's parents were deported to a concentration camp during the Second World War. They never returned. This early personal trauma at the age of five led Cyrulnik to his life's work helping individuals and countries come to terms with their pasts and forge ahead to create positive futures. It is his firm belief that trauma does not equal destiny-that, rather, we can find strength in the face of pain. Drawing on years of experience working around the globe with children who have been abused, orphaned, fought in wars and escaped genocide, Cyrulnik here tells many amazing and moving stories of individuals whose experiences prove that suffering, however appalling, can be the making of somebody rather than their destruction. This inspiring book teaches us that we can not only survive in the shadow of adversity-we can thrive.

The Whispering of Ghosts

Trauma and Resilience

By: Boris Cyrulnik

One out of every two people will experience trauma, says psychiatrist Boris Cyrulnik, and one in ten will remain a prisoner of that suffering. Why are some children permanently damaged by difficult childhoods, while others grow up into secure, creative, loving adults? This book, based on Dr. Cyrulnik's broad experience with victims of childhood distress, offers a message of hope for everyone concerned about the impact of deprivation and such traumatic events as separation, emotional or sexual abuse, and violence in the environment. The ghosts of the past keep on whispering to the child within the adult. Through dozens of moving, vivid examples, Dr. Cyrulnik describes the ingredients of resilience, the ability to heal the wounded self and move on, to make sense of what happened back then and form new emotional and social ties. Affection is such a vital need, he writes, that those who were deprived of it will attach themselves intensely to anything that rekindles a spark of life, whatever the cost. From the earliest parent-child bonding to the sexual turbulence of the teenage years, this book shows what makes for success or failure in the struggle to gain freedom from early pain.

Las almas heridas

Las huellas de la infancia, la necesidad del relato y los mecanismos de la memoria

By: Boris Cyrulnik

Las almas heridas es un libro sobre las huellas de la infancia, la necesidad del relato y los mecanismos de la memoria, elementos desarrollados a partir de la narración de sus vivencias personales hasta su adolescencia. Boris Cyrulnik, un joven cuyas inquietudes intelectuales ya se encaminan por las lindes de la psiquiatría, y que realiza sus primeras prácticas en un asilo para enfermos mentales (donde quedará en shock tras comprobar el aislamiento y las malas prácticas a las que son sometidos los pacientes: lobotomías, camisas de fuerza, etc.). Su nueva obra Les ames blessées (Las almas heridas) no es ni una autobiografía ni un libro de historia de la psiquiatría: se trata de un testimonio personal sobre el nacimiento de una disciplina difícil y apasionante que denominamos psiquiatría.
