This book explores social constructionism and the language of
mental distress. Mental health research has traditionally been
dominated by genetic and biomedical explanations that provide only
partial explanations. However, process research that utilises
qualitative methods has grown in popularity. Situated within this
new strand of research, the authors examine and critically assess
some of the different contributions that social constructionism has
made to the study of mental distress and to how those diagnosed are
conceptualized and labeled. This will be an invaluable introduction
and source of practical strategies for academics, researchers and
students as well as clinical practitioners, mental health
professionals, and others working with mental health such as
educationalists and social workers.
