When the idea of ​ ​ writing this book just took on a distinct shape, sofa experts, of whom there are a legion among the readers of the author's blog, were unusually excited. And by simple cell division, they broke up into two camps. The adherents of the camp of latent paranoids cried out that the doctor was cunning, he would now sow grains of uncertainty and plant worms of doubt in fragile minds, and then how he would go to collect patients in batches! The adherents of the camp of scientific snobbery protruded their little fingers, crooked their lips and said through their curvature - they say, another guide for teapots, that's how to be! So we will get to quantum mechanics for dummies! And the doctor, taking the most ardent on a pencil, simply took and wrote about neuroses. For whom? For those whom they pester - to slightly dispel the fog of terminology and myths that always accompany this topic. And for those who begin their journey in psychiatry - so that there is something like a simple and understandable manual written without brainy terminology and crafty wisdom in theoretical empires.
