Attempted Suicide: A Practical Guide to its Nature and Management (Oxford Medical Publications)

Oxford University Press

The field of mental health aspects of HIV infection has grown substantially in recent years. This is the first book that provides an up-to-date, comprehensive, and practical review of the mental health consequences of HIV infection both for those infected and affected by the condition. The psychological, psychiatric, and brain related consequences of the infection are discussed in depth, and detailed guidelines for the assessment and management of mental health problems are given. Burn-out in professional carers and volunteers is reviewed. Prevention of the spread of HIV infection depends essentially on behavior change and here, preventive strategies that work are examined in detail. The role of psychological factors in long-term survivors of HIV infection is discussed critically.

From the start of the HIV epidemic, the psychological and social aspects of the AIDS infection have been recognized. What could have been regarded simply as an infectious disease was soon acknowledged as a global problem that raised important issues about its transmission and prevention; economic, ethical and legal questions regarding the mental health consequences and the need for access to medical and social care.
