Description

Welcome back to this third episode in the 5 part miniseries where we talk about the institutional prejudice experienced by many people carrying around a label of personality disorder.

Like before, this episode is a direct result of the recent, astonishingly discriminatory, personality disorder course description circulated by the Royal College of Psychiatrists. 

In this episode, I speak with Holly about her experience of prejudice because of the label, including diagnostic overshadowing, lack of services and a lack of validation from professionals who really ought to know better. 

Here are the links I promised 

The Chvrches 'We Sink' - wait for the chorus, you won’t regret it.

'Thorn in my side' by the Eurythmics 

Holly’s earlier podcast 

And here's a link to the article about Children and Adolescent Mental Health services in the Guardian 

Until the next time

Thanks for listening
