Sinopsis

The experience of madness - which might also be referred to more formally as âÇÖschizophreniaâÇÖ or âÇÖpsychosisâÇÖ - consists of a complex, confusing and often distressing collection of experiences, such as hearing voices or developing unusual, seemingly unfounded beliefs. Madness, in its various forms and guises, seems to be a ubiquitous feature of being human, yet our ability to make sense of madness, and our knowledge of how to help those who are so troubled, is limited.Making Sense of Madness explores the subjective experiences of madness. Using clientsâÇÖ stories and verbatim descriptions, it argues that the experience of âÇÖmadnessâÇÖ is an integral part of what it is to be human, and that greater focus on subjective experiences can contribute to professional understandings and ways of helping those who might be troubledáby these experiences.Areas of discussion include:how people who experience psychosis make sense of it themselvesscientific/professional understandings of âÇÖmadnessâÇÖwhat the public thinks about âÇÖschizophreniaâÇÖáMaking Sense of Madness will be essential reading for all mental health professionals as well as being of great interest to people who experience psychosis and their families and friends.
