Identity or Diagnosis? Reflecting on Current Challenges for Psychiatry – Dr Chloe Saunders

This seminar is about ideas that concepts of identity and psychiatric diagnosis have become confused and entwined in society. To bring a focus to a sprawling subject, the discussion will centre around a familiar clinical scenario: the self-diagnosed patient who would not attract the diagnosis they seek, were they not to seek it.
