Robert Perkins Jenny Willis A medical building once billed itself as a Mental Health Prevention Preven-tion Center. The largest category of books in most bookstores these days is the dietself-help section. There is, in fact, something called the self-help syndrome. It describes people who habitually go from one self-help book to another not unlike the millions of people who try one diet after another. Self-help books are somewhat like horoscopes. No matter which one you read you'll probably see a little of yourself in each. Who couldn't use a little boost in the areas of self esteem, organization, organiza-tion, spouse relations, reducing stress and dealing with anger? According to Dr. Tom Lee, family and human development specialist in the USU College of Family Life, there are about 200 new self-help books published each year just on the topic of parenting. Many of these contain untested theories. Lee says there are no specific qualifications required to write a self-help book and there are no regulations to safeguard consumers con-sumers of these sometimes questionable therapies. Is there any danger? He says the main danger is that your expectations may be raised with the promise of a quick and easy solution only to find that your real life problem -i are more difficult dif-ficult than you thought. Lee suggests these guidelines for evaluating a self-help book therapy program: Is there any evidence other than rosy testimonials that this type of treatment works? Sound therapeutic practices have undergone under-gone years of testing using a variety of people. Testimonials generally come from a select few who were successful at the program. pro-gram. Book promoters don't tell you how many people failed at the program. Does the therapy program rely on self diagnosis? Trying to change may be futile if you don't identify the problem correctly. People who blame their shyness or low self esteem on being overweight may be disappointed to find that they still have these problems even after losing weight. An evaluation from a mental health professional may at least point you in the right direction. direc-tion. Are environmental factors taken into consideration? The book should at least consider that part of the problem may be environmental rather than a character flaw. For example, stress in your life may be related to raising young children, a two career family, a long commute and a noisy neighborhood. Typical Typ-ical stress reduction programs probably won't work unless some of these environmental circumstances circum-stances change. Does the program focus on will power and rigid rules as a means of self change? Trying to exert more willpower may not help if some effective steps for change aren't outlined. Change is part motivation or willpower and part finding new ways to achieve the rewards you want. How is success evaluated? Most people feel better temporarily simply because they have spent time and money trying to change. However, successful therapy should include concrete methods of measuring long term change. Lee says there are some excellent ex-cellent self-help books available, but they all have built-in limitations. limita-tions. For instance, there are some excellent books on working through depression written by competent mental health professionals. pro-fessionals. The problem isn't that if you are in a chronically depressed de-pressed state, you are probably not going to have enough energy or self motivation to follow through on the therapies outlined in these books. Lee suggests if you do pick up a self-help book, do so with some healthy skepticism. Realize that even if it works for somebody else, it may not work for you. Keep the parts that seem to work for you and incorporate them in your life. Change is often slow, but even small steps can make a difference for the better.
