Ok
I am interested in the validity of schizophrenia as a diagnosis
I've heard him explain that two people with no symptoms in common can both be so diagnosed
That seems quite loose, and I wonder at it's utility
Specially given we can formulate an individual case effectively

Interested in the comments to this. I have seen dissociation therapists reject IFS for dissociation and hear that it was not meant for that issue. So if it is used for the wrong purpose it might (which I think they were saying) be unhelpful. But I have no first hand and keen to learn from others

Laws of armed conflict and rules of engagement were emphasised in my officer training
This is sickening, and suggests top level complicity, as seen when our own special forces committed war crimes in Afghanistan
This however, is systemic, enduring and wholesale
The ICC must act

Spent five nights in Emergency (1) and Cardiac (4) wards and now in a discharge outpatient group, and will transition to a two month recovery team next week.

Is schizophrenia today more real than when Kraepelin and Bleuler created it?
What is wrong with case formulation? Which is an alternative to diagnosis?

The symptoms are real. No-one disputes this
What is the cause of the illness?
If it is enduring and crushing adversity the cause is not illness. It is systemic inhumanity

How often do we see a counter narrative to theirs labelled 'sick', 'crazy' etc?
When their narrative is called out they claim 'free speech', and 'discussion'
So assured are they that theirs is the only view worth expressing

Thank you. A good study. Love the different data sources.
Expanding our sense of self to include those in similar situations seems pretty obvious in retrospect. Also, the utility of purposeful action toward a solution.
I think this has application in the world at large.

The Royal Commission has an entire chapter on the Anglicans and another on the Catholics. Then lengthy sections on the Salvo's, Jehovah's Witnesses, Au Christian Churches and Pentecostals
