Dr Annie Hickox Not treating psychosis is the equivalent of not treating epilepsy. Itās not even debatable.
Side effects of meds are to be expected, but have to be weighed against their necessary & beneficial effects.
All of this must be discussed in a medical, not philosophical, context.

NANDINI CHAKRABORTY For too long psychiatry (rcpsych) has jumped on 'well being bandwagon)
There is clear difference between improved well-being and mental illness
Those of us who live/have lived with MI are still excluded, still have worse outcomes.
Society only cares when there is a disaster

Thought-provoking thread from Alan Woodall. And heās right to ask that Royal College of Psychiatrists take on leadership of colleagues in deciding what we can and cannot do with the services at our disposal. It mustnāt be for individual psychiatrists to feel caught between what they can and might do.
