What You Probably Don’t Know About: Diagnosis Look, Just Tell Me What To Do.

    • Mental Health

Diagnosis! What it means, how it came to be, how it is used for good and for ill. Today I talk with trauma reseracher Mary Catherine McDonald, PHD, about the DSM—the veritable bible of mental health—and the sheer subjectivity with which it was conceived, written and wielded by doctors and insurance companies alike.
We also discuss the wonderful madness of Robin Williams, how to rebuke terrible questions and what we think of people who like to tell other people who they are.

And on a totally unrelated topic, here is a link to my father's book archetypal animal symbolism:
Animal Guides in Life, Myth and Dreams (Studies in Jungian Psychology by Jungian Analysts, 97)
