Quotations:
“Abusive parents have inappropriate expectations of their children, with a reversal of dependence needs. Parents treat an abused child as if the child were older than the parents. A parent often turns to the child for reassurance, nurturing, comfort, and protection and expects a loving response.”
“Defense mechanism in which the existence of unpleasant realities is disavowed; refers to keeping out of conscious awareness any aspects of external reality that, if acknowledged, would produce anxiety.”
“Psychotropic drugs have also been organized according to structure (e.g., tricyclic), mechanism (e.g., monoamine, oxidase inhibitor [MAOI]), history (first generation, traditional), uniqueness (e.g., atypical), or indication (e.g., antidepressant). A further problem is that many drugs used to treat medical and neurological conditions are routinely used to treat psychiatric disorders.”
Sadock is a Distinguished Life Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association, a member of the American College of Physicians, a Fellow of the New York Academy of Medicine, New York-Bellevue Psychiatric Society, Alpha Omega Alpha and a Diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
In 1963, Sadock married Virginia Alcott, a psychiatrist. The marriage produced two children: James and Victoria.
