About Jake1642

I am an academic psychologist, diagnosed with bowel cancer in February 2023. I was given 24-30 months from the month of diagnosis, but that is the 50% percentile, so I may last shorter or longer. We will see. I am writing a blog about my experiences of cancer. Since starting it in Feburary I have written 82 episodes (is that the right word?). Check it out at drnigelhunt.com. Oops, I am not anonymous any more!

I have written around 10 books maiknly n my topic of research, traumatic stress. My latest book is Applied Narrative Psychology (Cambridge UP), where I argue that telling stories is a gvood way of dealing with stress and trauma -p give it a try!
