內容介紹

我相信多多少少在公司、家裡或是朋友間都會出現講話反應很浮誇的人,而且很多時候明明就風平浪淨,這些drama queen就一定要把事情搞得很複雜。

 

大家有遇過小題大作、愛大驚小怪的家人、同事和朋友嗎? 你們又是怎樣去面對呢? 《浮誇成癮: 我們該如何應對小題大作大驚小怪的人》(Addicted to Drama: Healing Dependency on Crisis and Chaos in Yourself and Others)相信可以給大家另一種觀點來看這些人,說不定很多時候我們自己遇到一些事也變成了drama queen,需要找到方式調整自己。

 

心理學家和身心平衡專家史考特·里昂 (Scott Lyons)首次將浮誇成癮(drama addiction)視為一種真正的疾病,並提供策略辨識怎樣的小題大作大驚小怪算是一種心理疾病以及如何擺脫浮誇找回自我的方式。

 

你的生活中是否有人總是愛製造混亂或是享受混亂? 明明風平浪靜卻喜歡興風作浪沒事生事?

 

一般遇到這樣的人,我們傾向於評判他們,臉上露出惱怒或厭惡的表情應對,並給這種人貼上“drama queen”的標籤。但史考特·里昂 (Scott Lyons)博士指出這樣的人其實正在經歷深層心理、生理和社會綜合層面的影響,這些人其實是迷上了混亂帶給他們的快感。浮誇成癮者經常面臨極大的壓力,他們反應激烈誇張,因為這樣他們就能找到一種控制感和平衡感。通過研究和臨床患者的故事,史考特·里昂博士解構了浮誇成癮的原因:


*什麼是浮誇成癮,什麼不是
*浮誇成癮與其他人格障礙的關聯,如自戀和邊緣性人格障礙
*如何識別自己和他人是否浮誇成癮
*浮誇成癮造成的身體影響(如慣性疲勞、自身免疫失調、關節和肌肉疼痛以及其他疾病)
*我們如何應對浮誇和恢復的方式

 

憑藉同理心,史考特·里昂博士帶領讀者擺脫浮誇,勇於把脆弱的一面展現出來,在日常生活中找到快樂。
