Forbidden Narratives: Critical Autobiography as Social Science
explores overlapping layers of voices and stories that convey the
social relations of psychiatric survivor participation within a
community mental health service system. It is written from the
perspective of a woman who, in the course of working with the
survivor movement, had a physical and emotional breakdown.
Ironically, the author found herself personally confronted with
issues she typically dealt with only from a distance: as a mental
health professional, a researcher, and an activist.
The author of this volume writes herself into her work as a major
character. Narratives such as this have traditionally been
forbidden as outside proper professional standards. Now they are
claiming and receiving attention. Forbidden Narratives has the
power to speak to a broad audience not only of mental health
professionals but also policy makers, sociologists and feminists.
It is about the breaking up of professional discourse. It
demonstrates and signals profound changes in the social sciences.
