Call Me Crazy

What the New Science of Feeling Disorders Reveals About Our Emotional Lives
The first major psychological exploration of hot topic emotional issues such as empty consent, imposter syndrome, gaslighting, and toxic relationships, from a Columbia University professor of psychoanalysis and creative non-fiction writing.

Gaslighting. Imposter syndrome. Toxic relationships.

We know these phases and what they feel like, but the world of psychology hasn’t taken them seriously – until now. In Call Me Crazy, psychoanalyst and Columbia University professor Dr Gila Ashtor offers the first major exploration of these hot topic emotional issues - plus empty consent, crazy girlfriend and autopilot – modern anxieties she calls ‘feeling disorders’.

Much like eating disorders, these interconnected issues disproportionately affect women and stem from an often-hidden truth—that our feelings can, and do, lie to us. Blending neurobiology with powerful storytelling, each issue is explored through the lens of Dr. Ashtor’s work with a particular patient, with the author providing a clear pathway to recognize, tackle and heal from it.

Destined to do for our emotions what Bessel van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps the Score did for trauma, Call Me Crazy provides the vital language we’ve been missing to finally make sense of our feelings, and is a smart, actionable roadmap to breaking free from toxic cycles.
