In October 2016 Jo Watson hosted the very first `A Disorder for
Everyone!' event in Birmingham, with psychologist Dr Lucy
Johnstone, to explore (and explode) the culture of psychiatric
diagnosis in mental health. To provide a space to continue the
debate after the event, Jo also set up the now hugely popular and
active Facebook group `Drop the Disorder!'.; Since then, they have
delivered events in towns and cities across the UK, bringing
together activists, survivors and professionals to debate
psychiatric diagnosis. How and why does psychiatric diagnosis hold
such power? What harm it can do? What are the alternatives to
diagnosis, and how it can be positively challenged?; This book
takes the themes, energy and passions of the AD4E events - bringing
together many of the event speakers with others who have stories to
tell and messages to share in the struggle to challenge diagnosis.;
This is an essential book for everyone of us who looks beyond the
labels.
