Episode 12

A rant about informed consent and a comment on the Hippocratic Oath. A Psychiatrist should inform the patient of diagnosis, risks, side effects, and treatment options. And real medical doctors shoould aviod doing harm to their patients. According to "Key Opinion Leaders" such as Dr Ron Pies, no well informed psychiatrist has ever promoted the chemical imbalance theory of mental illness, much less presented it as established fact. 
We then discuss a bit about crazy wisdom, which is applied narratives. 
And finally we have our first interview. "Fiona" is a certified occupational therapy assistant who has worked in mental health for almost 30 years.
