Seems to me that it is not ok to bring up certain topics or viewpoints on PC:

- Any forceful assertions that psychotherapy might have fundamental flaws or might be lacking in credibility or legitimacy.

- Personal accounts of therapy that talk openly about significant harm or that criticize the therapist in strong terms.

- Challenges to biological psychiatry and psych drugs. This one in particular has brought out angry attacking and the feeling of being chased away by a sectarian mob.

In another thread I was told by a frequent poster that I was "once again bashing the mental health system". It was a distortion, but also the message was clear: dissent is not tolerated.

Of course it is a 2 way street, and saying contentious things stirs people up, so have to be mindful of choice of words.

ps: I am posting this in the Psychotherapy forum because thats where I have seen the above.
