Thanks for posting and really interesting to h...Hi<br /><br />Thanks for posting and really interesting to hear your point of view. I hope you find time to read some of the other posts on this blog, particularly those from my colleague Laura under the heading "Unconventional Wisdom," where she considers how people who are distressed are assumed to be ill and treated accordingly, rather than given time to explore what has happened to them in their lives to cause the distress. There are alternative approaches out there - and we try and post or signpost to those we come across. That's not to say they are all available in Powys however! We wish! (But you may not be in Powys anyway). I will soon be writing about Open Dialogue, an innovative Finnish approach closely involving the family and friends of people who are distressed, where medication is far less likely to be prescribed. It might not be in Powys yet, but there is an active group in Nottingham I found out about recently, so it is getting closer!<br /><br />There have also been a couple of posts on here about creating space to talk and to listen also. I hope you have found that space and time you need to talk yourself.<br /><br />JackieJackie Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05293038655478909058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8753418862245773183.post-85474786867727388582013-09-24T15:14:08.300+01:002013-09-24T15:14:08.300+01:00Hi Matthew
