AN APPLE BOOKS PICK OF THE MONTH | “Masterfully written, distinctively researched, deeply humane . . . Genius.”—ANTHONY SWOFFORD, author of Jarhead | “A major contribution . . . A necessary book.”—JOHANN HARI, author of Lost Connections | “This book is a triumph of the spirit and the flesh.”—ELIZA GRISWOLD, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Amity and Prosperity | In this stunning debut—both a memoir and a work of investigative journalism—writer Sarah Fay explores the ways we pathologize human experiences.
I loved your book. I had similar experiences in the mental "health" community over many years. It was frustrating and painful to not be heard. The doctors weren't really interested in what I had to say about my impressions of what was going on. Excellent, important, must-read in a culture that opts to drug itself as a first line treatment in way too many instances. Thank for this. It's an important contribution that will hopefully lead to some change-making.
I just recorded a video for Substack about how much I hate the DSM and think it’s bananas that outside organizations can influence what diagnoses make it in the DSM. 🤦🏻♀️
