Summary: Restore balance and contentment to one's way of life
Review: Collaboratively written by clinical psychologists Robert W. Firestone and Lisa Firestone, with the assistance of author/lecturer Joyce Catlett, Conquer Your Critical Inner Voice is an impressively "user friendly" self-help guide to learning how to overcome negative thoughts and self-imposed limitations. Individual chapters address how excessive self-criticism can interfere with intimacy, career, and general quality of life, and how it can co-opt oneself into addictive and unhealthily dependent behaviors. Strategies for learning how to restore balance and contentment to one's way of life, and also for choosing an effective therapist, offer a way out of the endless downward spiral of self-depreciating negativity. Conquer Your Critical Inner Voice is a highly recommended addition to personal reading lists and community library self-improvement, self-help reference collections.

Summary: Yes, it will help
Review: The goal of CONQUER YOUR CRITICAL INNER VOICE is to provide the reader with the insights gained by Dr. Firestone, in 25 years of investigating the critical inner voice of living, & the ways he discovered of overcoming its harmful effects.

Guidelines & exercises in the book help readers identify their critical inner voices, to understand their source, & take action against these insidious defamers, so they can live a more fulfilling life, develop their own ideals & values, & embark on their own search for meaning in life.

CONQUER YOUR CRITICAL INNER VOICE is recommended for everyone who has ever been haunted by "inner voices" from the past. Since this includes just about all of us, it is a useful book which fills a needed slot in psychiatric literature. In particular, it is a good beginning step for people who have never been in therapy.
