The first time I saw a play was when I was twelve and a nerdy math major in junior high. Our class went to downtown Los Angeles and saw a Shakespeare play. I forget which one we saw (I only remember it was about a king), but I fell in love with theater right then and there. They were talking in some weird variation of English to my mind, but the actors were so good, I could immediately understand what they meant. I came from a working-class family, and the only thing I'd watched until then was TV or a movie.

In this book, Dr. Carol W. Berman describes how to help patients control the self-sabotaging element of their unconscious minds, often called the punitive superego, the negative introject, or the hurt child. The negative introject can provoke horrendous acts against the self, ranging from suicide and addiction to making hurtful comments to loved ones. The role of the psychotherapist is to make the unconscious conscious, allowing the sufferers to take back control of their actions. Dr. Berman uses case studies to personalize the theory and demonstrate how the negative introject can take hold and impact the lives of those suffering from a variety of illnesses and disorders, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and bipolar disorder. Each chapter concludes with a guide demonstrating how the negative introject was tamed in each case, showing the reader that the negative introject can be identified and then brought into some control. This book is essential reading for all kinds of psychotherapists, from psychiatrists to social workers and psychologists, as well as all those who wish to identify the negative introject, and help "tame" it.
