Introducing the latest issue of JCPCP. We have a paper exploring the disconnect between how psychiatry is actually practiced versus how it should be practiced according to the World Health Organisation. Spoiler: they are not the same. John Herbert also provides a moving account of his story and treatment at the hands of psy experts. A must read given the disconnect between how the public thinks the system works (and how professionals pretend it does), versus how it actually does in the real world.Contents found here.
