Borderlines and Emotional Abusers – When Borderlines Are Abusive in Their Intimate Relationships   by Dr Jeanne King PhD

Sometimes individuals with a borderline personality disorder present like emotional abusers, and this has important clinical implications for treatment. A close look at the DSM-IV criteria for Borderline Personality Disorder sheds light on this relationship.

The Borderline’s Abuse Characteristics

What is it about the borderline personality disorder that can also fulfill the criteria for intimate partner abuse?

1) Frantic attempts to prevent abandonment, whether this is real or imagined

This diagnostic criterion for borderline personality can manifest as clingy, intrusive and possessive behavior. Their attachment to that which they so desperately don’t want to lose can often take the form of controlling behaviors that violate the rights and boundaries of their intimate partners.

2) Unstable relationships that alternate between idealization and devaluation

When borderlines with this criterion for borderline personality disorder are in the devaluation phase with regard to their significant other, battering behavior can be evidenced. Their disregard for the devalued partner becomes their justification for partner assault—verbally, emotionally, psychologically and even physically.

3) Identity disturbance (severely unstable self-image or sense of self)

Abusers, like borderlines with this characteristic, see their intimate partners as extensions of themselves. The behavioral expression of this is their tendency toward being excessively demanding and having significant problems with interpersonal boundaries.

4) Potentially self-damaging impulsiveness in at least two areas, such as binge eating, reckless driving, sex, spending, substance use

The borderline, like the partner abuser, can have serious problems with impulse control. It’s as if their impulsive behavior serves as the release mechanism for re-establishing harmony when lost.

5) Self-mutilation or suicide thoughts, threats, or other behavior

When the level of despair is significant, both abusers and borderlines may resort to self-harm to the highest degree…including harboring suicidal thoughts.

6) Severe reactivity of mood leading to marked instability

Intermittent explosive abusers and borderlines are emotionally labile. They can have unpredictable mood swings of intense Anxiety, depression or irritability lasting hours to days.

7) Chronic feelings of emptiness

Both borderlines and abusers lack authentic inner wealth. Instead, they chronically seek to fulfill themselves with their current attachments. They can even overwhelm themselves with self-imposed structure in their desperate effort to counter their feelings of emptiness.

Anger that is out of control or inappropriate and intense

This is the abuser characteristic popularized in the media. Most people think of batterers as individuals with anger management problems. Both borderlines and domestic abusers suffer from issues with anger modulation. They have temper tantrums, get into physical fights and harbor chronic anger.

9) Brief paranoid ideas or severe dissociative symptoms related to Stress

Borderlines lapsing into paranoid ideation can image their partners are having affairs with other intimate partners—a belief that intimate partner abusers commonly hold.

If you are interfacing with personality disorders and domestic violence in your personal life or in your professional work, then be mindful of this relationship between the criteria of borderline personality disorder and the classic characteristics of intimate partner abusers.

Embracing today’s world with leading-edge coverage of the DSM-IV-TR and dimensional approaches to classification, Mash and Wolfe’s comprehensive introduction covers many topics: evidence-based assessment and treatment, contemporary research and cutting-edge theories related to the predominantly inattentive ADHD subtype, early-onset and the developmental propensity model of conductdisorder, the triple vulnerability model of anxiety, the tripartite model in children, depression, and autism.

American Melancholy $42.95 As American Melancholy reveals, if you read about depression anywhere today—medical journal, popular magazine, National Institute of Mental Health pamphlet, or pharmaceutical company drug promotional literature—you will find three main pieces of information either explicitly stated or strongly implied: depression is a disease (like any other physical disease); it is extraordinarily prevalent in the world; and it occurs about twice as frequently in women as in men. Yet, depression was not classified as a disease until the 1980 publication of the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual-III (DSM-III). How is it that such an illness, thought to affect between 14 and 17 million Americans, was not specifically defined until the late twentieth century?American Melancholy traces the growth of depression as an object of medical study and as a consumer commodity and illustrates how and why depression came to be such a huge medical, social, and cultural phenomenon. It is the first book to address gender issues in the construction of depression, explores key questions of how its diagnosis was developed, how it has been used, and how we should question its application in American society.

Chronic Anxiety $40 It is widely recognized that chronic anxiety plays a central role in a broad variety of psychological and psychiatric disorders. Yet, despite its significance, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)–an official psychiatric diagnosis that is akin to chronic anxiety–is one of the newest, least studied, and most misunderstood of the anxiety disorders. Bringing together leading researchers who discuss the nature and treatment of GAD, this is the first book to focus specifically on the topic. In addition, the volume examines the overlap of GAD and depressive disorders, presenting important new information on mixed-anxiety depression (MAD). Providing a well-rounded approach, chapters in the first half of the volume address theoretical considerations while those in the second cover clinical issues. The book opens with a description of the general nature of anxiety and its relation to depression and stress that places GAD into the broad context of emotional disorders. As the primary characteristic of both chronic anxiety and GAD, the cognitive process of worry is discussed in detail. Remaining chapters describe the nature, etiology and treatment of the broad psychological construct of chronic anxiety and the specific psychiatric diagnosis of GAD. Biological and psychological factors are considered, as are issues of comorbidity. Clinical chapters commence with a discussion of the diagnosis of GAD and its revisions for DSM-IV. Recognizing that many individuals complain of equal mixtures of low levels of anxiety and depressed mood, particularly in primary care settings, the DSM-IV Task Force is considering the inclusion of mixed anxiety-depression (MAD) as a possible category. One chapterprovides an overview of ongoing conceptual and empirical work on this topic. Other topics include pharmacotherapy and psychosocial treatments for GAD. Throughout, chapters are based on DSM-IV considerations. Providing readers with both a fundamental understanding of the topic and a d

Clinical Assessment and Diagnosis in Social Work Practice $57 This revolutionary, user-friendly textbook not only guides social workers in developing competence in the DSM system of diagnosis, it also assists them in staying attuned during client assessment to social work values and principles: a focus on client strengths, concern for the worth and dignity of individuals, appreciation of environmental influences on behavior, and commitment to evidence-informed practice.The authors, seasoned practitioner-scholars, provide an in-depth exploration of fourteen major mental disorders that social workers commonly see in practice, including anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.

Excerpt: Attachment measures refer to the various procedures used to assess attachment in children and adults. Researchers have developed various ways of assessing attachment in children. A variety of methods allow children to be classified into four attachment styles: secure, anxious-ambivalent, anxious-avoidant, and disorganized/disoriented, or assess disorders of attachment . These classifications are also referred to as Secure (Group B); Anxious/Resistant (Group C); Avoidant (Group A) and Disorganized (Group D). Each organized style is further broken down into several sub-categories. A child classified with the disorganized style will be given a “next best fit” organized classification as disorganized attachment is thought to represent a break-down of attachment strategy. Attachment in adults is commonly measured using the Adult Attachment Interview and self-report questionnaires. Self-report questionnaires have identified two dimensions of attachment, one dimension dealing with

The Cognitive Behavioral Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASP) is a synthesis model of interpersonal and cognitive and behavioral therapies developed (and patented) by James P. McCullough Jr of Virginia Commonwealth University specifically for the treatment of all varieties of DSM-IV Chronic Depression. CBASP is often mistakenly labeled a variant of Cognitive Therapy (CT) or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) but it is not. Dr. McCullough writes that Chronic Depression (i.e., depressive disorder in adults that lasts continuously for two or more years; one year continuously in adolescents), particularly the type beginning during adolescence (early-onset), is essentially a refractory “Mood Disorder” arising from traumatic experiences or interpersonal psychological insults delivered by the patient’s Significant Others (nuclear or extended family).

Depression and Personality: Conceptual and Clinical Challenges $66 Depression and Personality: Conceptual and Clinical Challenges offers an intriguing new look at where we are in understanding the relationship between personality dimensions, disorders, and mood disorder. It is both a cogent update of conceptual models and a clearly written, practical guide to the challenges faced every day by clinicians as they treat patients with depression and bipolar disorder.Laying the groundwork for subsequent chapters, the editors emphasize the value of not only robust pharmacotherapy augmented by psychosocial interventions (with a focus on the assets rather than the liabilities of a patient’s temperament), but also of a detailed review of where we are today. An introductory overview provides valuable historical perspective on the evolution of personality from “humors” to body constitution and temperament. In 10 informative chapters, 22 contributors discuss • The neurobiological dimensions of personality, focusing on affect-related traits as they review the evidence for serotonin and norepinephrine disturbance based on challenge paradigms, and the range of models to understand the interrelationship between personality and depression.• The justification for depressive personality in both categorical terms, i.e., adding to the diagnostic armamentarium of DSM-V, and dimensional terms, focusing on the Five Factor Model to provide a link between several facets of neuroticism and depressive personality disorder. • The impact of personality on various aspects of treatment, filling in a gap in the pharmacotherapy literature by asserting that personality pathology can affect the patient’s capacity to seek, be engaged in, or be compliant with treatment.• Key assessment and treatment issues, recommending a multimodal phased treatment approach that involves targeted pharmacotherapy and integrated individual psychotherapy.• The role of personality disorder in the assessment and

Diagnostic Issues in Depression and Generalized Anxiety Disorder: Refining the Research Agenda for DSM-V $72 Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and major depression (MD) form the largest group of common mental disorders. These two conditions often occur together, and emerging evidence suggests several similarities between them. As we move toward revising the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders for DSM-V, Diagnostic Issues in Depression and Generalized Anxiety Disorder: Refining the Research Agenda for DSM-V explores the nosologic relationship between GAD and MD. In this comprehensive manual, more than 45 contributors cover a wide range of empirical and conceptual issues that face clinicians and researchers working with GAD and MD today.This book acts as a guidepost for the entire DSM process. It reviews recent scientific advances in our understanding of the interrelationship between GAD and MD, summarizes the body of evidence into a few broad conclusions, and reflects on the implications of these findings for future nosologic efforts. The contributing authors review empirical data from a variety of perspectives—including genetics, biology, treatment, development, course, predictors, disability, and psychosocial stressors—and then integrate results from research on all these diverse validators to come up with a single “bottom-line” recommendation regarding the relationship between GAD and MD. In addition, the book considers conceptual issues, such as criteria for results from validators, the relevance of results on symptoms of anxiety and depression, weights of different classes of validators, and the rules for assigning disorders into categories. And finally, it addresses the question of what new kinds of data could be gathered that would help to clarify the relationship between MD and GAD more definitively. Each chapter includes tables, charts, and references to enhance the evidence presented on such diverse topics as: • A thorough review of the genetics of GAD and MD•

Emotion regulation deficits in older adults with GAD. $49.99 General anxiety disorder (GAD) is the least understood and most treatment refractory of all the anxiety disorders. Contemporary models of GAD posit that worry functions as an avoidance strategy of strong emotions, including threat-related mental imagery and associated autonomic reactivity, indicating underlying emotion regulation deficits. The current study examined the relationship between emotion regulation deficits, self-reported worry, and other GAD symptoms in a sample of older adults diagnosed with GAD and a nonanxious control group matched on age. Consistent with predictions, the GAD sample reported more difficulties with emotion regulation than non-anxious older adults. Effects were found on total measure scores, and on specific emotion dysregulation subscales including: “lack of awareness of emotions,” “non-acceptance of emotional experience,” “difficulties engaging in goal-directed behavior when experiencing negative emotions,” and “lack of access to emotion regulation strategies perceived as effective.” These general and specific emotion regulation deficits, except for “non-acceptance of emotional experience,” significantly predicted worry even after variance accounted for by anxiety and depression was controlled. Also consistent with predictions, after being treated with a standard CBT protocol for GAD, responders (i.e. those no longer meeting DSM-IV-TR criteria for a diagnosis of GAD) reported a significant improvement in general emotion regulation skills and improvement in “access to emotion regulation strategies perceived as effective,” as compared to the group of older adults with GAD who did not respond to treatment or were in the wait-list condition. Responders also reported significant improvements in “difficulties engaging in goal-directed behavior when experiencing negative emotions” and “lack of awareness of emotions.” These findings provide additional preliminary evidence for an emotion regulation deficit model of GAD, and the first such

The current study examines the face validity of the Anxiety, Depression, Mania, Somatic Concerns, and Thought Disturbance scales of the EAS. It was hypothesized that, the EAS would display adequate levels of face validity for the scales examined. The reliability of the raters’ placement was solidly in the good agreement range (kappa = .694) when collapsed across scales. Additionally, when collapsed across scales, correct placement was statistically significant in the hypothesized direction (chi2 = 23, 168.177, df = 16, p = .000) indicating that the raters’ answers were related to the item content. Overall, the results indicated that the measured scales of the EAS have the desired levels of face validity.

Habit And Impulse Disorders $9.25 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Trichotillomania (TTM, also known as trichotillosis, or more commonly as trich) is defined as “hair loss from a patient’s repetitive self-pulling of hair” and is characterized by the repeated urge to pull out scalp hair, eyelashes, facial hair, nose hair, pubic hair, eyebrows or other body hair, sometimes resulting in noticeable bald patches. Trichotillomania is classified in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) as an impulse control disorder, but there are questions about how it should be classified. It may seem, at times, to resemble a habit, an addiction, a tic disorder or an obsessivecompulsive disorder. The disorder “leads to noticeable hair loss, distress, and social or functional impairment”, and is “often chronic and difficult to treat”. Trichotillomania may be present in infants, but the peak age of onset is 9 to 13. Depression or stress can trigger the trich. Due to social implications the disorder is often unreported and it is difficult to predict accurately prevalence of trichotillomania; the lifetime prevalence of trich is estimated to be between 0.6% (overall) and 1.5% (in males) to 3.4% (in females). The name, coined by French dermatologist François Henri Hallopeau, derives from the Greek: trich- (hair), till(en) (to pull), and mania (“an abnormal love for a specific object, place, or action”). Trichotillomania, “in the broadest sense … is self-induced loss of hair”. It is classified in DSM-IV as an impulse control disorder with pyromania, pathological gambling and kleptomania, and includes the criterion of an increasing sense of tension before pulling the hair and gratification or relief when pulling the hair. However, some people with trich do not endorse the inclusion of “rising tension and sub… More:

How using the Shin-Ka program in a Japanese-style healing garden will influence the treatment of adolescent substance abusers. $49.99 Increasingly, many facilities are learning to appreciate the value of horticulture as a tool for healing emotionally, physically, and psychologically. The Shin-Ka program is designed to utilize the philosophies of horticulture, twelve step, and mindfulness in a comprehensive program that can be used to help decrease the symptomology often associated with substance abuse and environmental stressors. This project used a quasi-experimental design comparing pre and posttest scores of different psychological instruments. The program was four weeks long, with a total of twelve walking lesson plans in the garden lead by the designer of the program, Donna Kobayashi. The program ran twice with a total sample size of 91: 47 in the Focus group and 44 in the Control group. The adolescents were administered a test battery, including the Connors Rating Scale (CRS), Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), Tellegen Absorption Scale, Davis Interpersonal Reactivity Index, Adolescent Relapse Coping Questionnaire (ARCQ), and the Taylor Manifest Anxiety Scale, before and after their involvement in the entire program. The comparison of post Focus group to post Control group test scores indicated changes in abstinence focused coping (t (79) = -2.89, p <.05.) and total scores for coping and relapses (t (79) = -2.27, p < .05) of the ARCQ. The comparison of pre-post test scores for only the Focus group demonstrated changes in emotional problems (t (37) = 2.45, p < .05), hyperactivity problems (t (37) = 2.06, p < .05), and self-critical thinking t (37) = 2.23, p< .05). Trends were also found in the areas of Anxiety, Conduct Problems, and Depression.

Modelling And Managing the Depressive Disorders $89.31 The DSM and ICD mental illness classificatory systems define mood disorder as essentially a single condition varying only by severity. Gordon Parker and Vijaya Manicavasagar expose the weaknesses in the existing models, and describe a new approach to sub-typing and managing depression based on there being some specific defined manifestations, including melancholia and psychotic depression, as well as versions of the condition highly dependent on life stresses and personality styles. They argue that depression can exist as a disease, a disorder, a syndrome and a normal reaction, and it therefore requires a multi-modal approach to conceptualization and management.

Opinions of mental illness and help-seeking among college students. $49.99 Large numbers of college students that might benefit from university funded mental health services do not seek help. Understanding how certain factors (e.g., gender, type of mental health concern) contribute to opinions of mental illness may be beneficial in improving services. One hundred twenty-four female and 66 male undergraduate students were presented with brief written scenarios describing individuals with various mental illnesses (anxiety, bipolar disorder, bulimia nervosa, depression, relationship problems) based on the DSM-IV. Results support the hypothesis that the various mental illnesses are perceived differently (p < .05). Contrary to predictions, there were no differences between male and female participants, or for the sex of the student described in the scenario. Participants also reported on utilization of campus services, potential barriers to utilization, and indicated the likelihood of seeking services if offered in additional locations. The majority of students (72.1%) reported utilizing the student health service, while 18.4% of students reported using the counseling center services. Results also indicated that participants were least likely to seek services if offered at the career center or in the residence halls and most likely to utilize services if offered at the health center and the student center. Information regarding previous experiences with and knowledge of mental illness was also gathered. As predicted, knowledge and opinions of mental illness were significantly correlated (p < .01). The findings of the present study are limited by its small sample size and its low response rate, but useful information is presented in light of these limitations. Suggestions for practical implications are offered and directions for future research are discussed.

Oppositional Defiant Disorder $44 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Oppositional defiant disorder is described by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders as an ongoing pattern of disobedient, hostile and defiant behavior toward authority figures which goes beyond the bounds of normal childhood behavior. People who have it may appear very stubborn. To meet DSM-IV-TR criteria, certain factors must be taken into account. First, the defiance must interfere with the child’s ability to function in school, home, or the community. Second, the defiance cannot be the result of another disorder, such as the more serious conduct disorder, depression, anxiety, or a sleep disorder such as DSPS. Third, the child’s problem behaviors have been happening for at least six months. The diagnostic criteria for this disorder are as follows:

Psychotherapy and the Highly Sensitive Person: Improving Outcomes for That Minority of People Who Are the Majority of Clients $89.95 Dr. Elaine Aron’s newest book, Psychotherapy and the Highly Sensitive Person, redefines the term “highly sensitive” for the professional researcher and practitioner. She dispels common misconceptions about the relationship between sensitivity and other personality traits, such as introversion and shyness, and further defines the trait for the benefit of both the clinician and patient. Readers will learn to assess for the trait, distinguish it from clinical diagnoses such as panic disorder or avoidant personality disorder, understand how sensitivity may change the presentation of a problem such as depression or shyness, and generally inform, validate, and improve the quality of life for these clients. She pays particular attention to self-esteem issues and helping patients separate effects of their innate temperament from problems due to their personal learning histories. Dr. Aron keeps both patient and practitioner in mind as she suggests ways to adapt treatment for highly sensitive persons and how to deal with the typical issues that arise. Three appendices provide the HSP Scale, a summary of the extensive research on this innate trait, and its relation to DSM diagnoses. Through this helpful guide, therapists will see a marked improvement in their ability to assist highly sensitive clients.

Qigong as an Alternative and Complimentary Treatment for Depression $61 Is it possible to cure depression without the use of anti-depressants and counseling? This dissertation pilot study sought to determine the efficacy of the qigong exercise as a treatment for depression, since it is known to raise serotonin levels for an extended period of time after practice and builds over time. Three qualified qigong masters provided a “qi energy treatment” to the subjects who did a daily 40-minute exercise of Spring Forest Qigong for a brief, two-month period. No counseling was provided. Some of the subjects were on medication, and some were not. The significance of the study indicates that qigong was more effective than medication in reducing DSM IV criteria symptoms and may be considered as a curative for depression. The results (.0000 Beck’s Depression Index) far exceeded the expectations of the researcher and the participants. The results strongly indicate that qigong should become a standard part of treatment planning for those who suffer from depression.

Relational Processes and DSM-V: Neuroscience, Assessment, Prevention, and Treatment $81 Seeking to integrate the large volume of clinical research on relational processes and mental health disorders with other scientific advances in psychiatry, Relational Processes and DSM-V builds on exciting advances in clinical research on troubled relationships. These advances included marked improvements in the assessment and epidemiology of troubled relationships as well the use of genetics, neuroscience, and immunology to explore the importance of close relationships in clinical practice. Advances in family-based intervention, and prevention are also highlighted to help practitioners and researchers find common ground and begin an empirically based discussion about the best way to revise the DSM. Given the overwhelming research showing that relationships play a role in regulating neurobiology and genetic expression and are critical for understanding schizophrenia, conduct disorder, and depression among other disorders, relational processes must be a part of any empirically based plan for revising psychiatric nosology in DSM-V. The chapters in this book counter the perspective that we can safely discard the biopsychosocial model that has guided psychiatry in the past. The contributors examine the relevance of close relationships in such issues as the basic psychopathology of mental disorders, factors influencing maintenance and relapse, sources of burden for family members, and guiding family-based interventions. By tying relational processes to basic research on psychopathology, they demonstrate the value of integrating basic behavioral and brain research with a sophisticated understanding of the self-organizing and self-sustaining characteristics of relationships. Coverage includes: • research linking relational processes to neuroscience, neurobiology, health outcomes, intervention research, prevention research, and genetics• consideration of specific circumstances, such as promoting healthy parenting following

The Beck Depression InventoryRTM – FastScreen for Medical Patients compared to the Geriatric Depression Scale-15: Predicting depression in medically ill geriatric residents living in long-term care. $49.99 This study compared the Geriatric Depression Scale – 15 (GDS – 15; Sheikh and Yesavage, 1986) and the Beck Depression InventoryRTM FastScreen for Medical Patients (BDIRTMFS; Beck, Steer, & Brown, 2000) in predicting depression among medically ill geriatric patients in a long-term care facility in Colorado Springs, CO. Studies in the area of undiagnosed depression in the elderly adult have revealed that there is a significant number of elderly adults living in long-term care facilities with undiagnosed and untreated depression (Heston et al. 1992, Inadequate Treatment of Depressed Nursing Home Elderly; Lebowitz et al., 1997, Diagnosis and Treatment of Depression in Late Life; NIH, 1991, Diagnosis and Treatment of Depression in late Life; Rovner et al., 1991, Depression and Mortality in Nursing Homes). Physicians and nonpsychiatric staff rely on assessment tools to predict depression and refer to mental health professionals, yet it is difficult to determine which is the best predictor for depression in this unique population. This study compared the BDIRTMFS and the GDS-15 against the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I Disorders: Clinician Version (First, Spitzer, Gibbon, & Williams, 1997) for Major Depression Disorder (MDD). Findings in this study indicate the GDS-15 is stronger predictor for MDD than the BDIRTMFS in one long-term care setting for medically ill patients. It is recommended that physicians and long-term care staff utilize the GDS-15 when screening for depression in long-term care residents.

The Conspiracy, Fraud, Quackery and Death of Psychiatry $22.98 Psychiatry became established in the late 1800s and its goal was to eradicate mental illness, to improve the mind, intelligence and well being of the American people but history shows that it had turned into a completely opposite direction. The conspiracy is explained throughout this book showing how simple dyslexia in children was turned into the ADHD scam that resulted in millions of children being placed on brain-damaging drugs especially, Ritalin and Prozac. Read about the DSM Bible of Psychiatry with over 374 “mental illnesses” and “behavioral disorders” listed, but were never researched. There are no known causes, tests or examinations to prove they do or do not exist, and whether they are still present or absent, so “treatment” is based on a Gypsy’s crystal ball as to when the patient is well or cured – if ever. Learn how nondiseases are converted into “disorders” through the use of metaphors. Compare: Typhoid Fever and Spring Fever; Chronic Hoarding Disorder and Pathological Gambling Disorder, etc. Learn about schizophrenia and depression; also electroshock, psychosurgery, neuroleptic and antidepressant drugs, and what they have to offer beside brain damage.Learn about the natural approach to mental health that encourages self-reliance, ethical and moral behavior and assists any person to handle his own problems, and to understand and monitor his own conscience, health and behavior through his postulates. This is done through supervised one-on-one Soul Guidance Counseling with alternatives of private Rehab Meditation. It’s in the book titled, A Practical Handbook For Unlimited Spiritual Ability (Optimum Self-Government), by Donald A. Dahlin, D.C.
