More rigorous clinical trials need to be conducted. These recommendations have only been validated in individual patients and families. What is recommended in the literature is to empathically elicit the details of the content of delusions, to address the accompanying emotions rather than the logic of the presented argument, to teach self-soothing techniques, and to monitor behavior with respect to its safety. Findings are that there is no evidence for differentiated psychosocial treatment for men and women with delusional disorder. This review explores three areas: (a) specific treatments for men and women (b) recommended psychological approaches by health professionals, especially in early encounters with patients with DD and (c) recommended psychoeducation for families. Because the content of men’s and women’s delusions sometimes differ, it has been suggested that optimal interventions for the two sexes may also differ. The aim of this narrative review is to select from the clinical literature the psychosocial interventions that appear to work best for these conditions and to see whether similar strategies can be modeled or taught to family members so that tensions at home are reduced. They are also difficult for family members to bear. Delusional disorders (DD) are difficult conditions for health professionals to treat successfully.

Working with both my publishers, we’ve finally fixed release dates for my next two books - that’s the good news! Chain of Thorns will be coming out November 1, 2022. I was hoping that Chain of Thorns would be able to match its predecessors with a spring release date in 2022, but it became clear a while ago that that wasn’t going to happen. As authors, we always want to get our books to readers as soon as possible. *dusts off hands* This kind of announcement is hard to make. Let’s have a look at Cassandra Clare’s newsletter in which she revealed the release date for Chain of Thorns and also explained why the conclusion to The Last Hours trilogy is that late. Yes, it is a shock to pretty much all of us. Credit: Tony Luong for The New York Times Please note that the release date has been pushed back to January 31, 2023.

Kubrick made The Shining scary by stripping away the sap, cutting the goofy sequences (beware killer topiary and fire hoses!) and injecting his narrative with his own brand of wonder and awe. His ultimate horror aesthetic is the carnival fun house. He’s good at premises but his writing is too adolescent and sentimental to be properly chilling. I do believe it is best to be creative when adapting a Stephen King novel because I have never found King himself frightening. I think this is because Kubrick deviated from the source material far more than Flannigan did. In fact it’s one of the most frightening films ever made and Doctor Sleep for all it’s visual nuance and ghostly characters just isn’t. But there’s a big difference between Doctor Sleep and Kubrick’s The Shining: The Shining is scary. Visually it’s a marvellous film that manages to evoke a morose atmosphere that bridges the gap between Kubrick’s directing style and Flannigan’s. Flannigan’s character work is always great, it’s performance driven and there is a languid pacing emphasised by the use of slow fades between shots. There’s a lot to recommend Doctor Sleep, Mike Flannigan’s adaptation of Stephen King’s belated sequel to The Shining.

In the meantime their adventures include falling into the hands of a greedy Arab merchant, joining Sir Launcelot on a quest, becoming half-invisible in a crowded theatre, foiling a jewel heist, and becoming part of the wrong family. Naturally this causes some hilarious problems, but it finally leads the family to greater happiness, with a new father and a more enjoyable summer in sight.
