I also get what you're saying about your pdoc. There are two in the practice I go to. The other one would never even give me a chance to explain. She simply sees sickness that needs to be treated. I see a tangled web of root causes that need to be unwound and healed and appreciated for the fantastical mess it is.

All of this reminds me of the Autism speaks campaign. Psychosis speaks, it just speaks in code and the keys lie deep within our own experiences and layers of consciousness. Figuring out a way to communicate with it unlocks the ability to transform it and reprogram with healthier expressions.

Right, I feel like a lot of people are taught to see Psychosis as a poisonous other that’s out to get them instead of part of themselves speaking in a different way. It really changes self acceptance in a major way. There have been studies of psychosis in groups outside of the US and people almost always do better in different cultures. Instead of feelings of paranoia they often get guidance because that is how it is framed for them.
