A truly very wonderful kind and compassionate book that should be read by absolutely everyone.

Kind of blew me away really. I have listened to so many audible books but never felt compelled to actually right a review. That to me speaks volumes for this book.
Insightful and compassionate explanation of the state of affairs in the mental health system and what is the reality for people living with psychosis and schizophrenia. Told through the experiences of this mental health nurse and the stories of those that have lived it.
Cannot recommend this book more highly.

Eye Opening

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I would like to see what kind of changes would occur in the treatment of mental health service users (and society) 10 years after “This Book Will Change Your Mind About Mental Health” was made a compulsory text in a core subject of every undergraduate and graduate Medical, Allied Health, Public Health, Public Policy, Law, Criminal Justice and Education degrees.

Suggestions on how to be a key holder:
Buy it, read it, think on it, talk about it, give it as a gift, ask your local library to get in several copies, suggest it to your reading group, leave copies on the train,
Do more than 5 of these and the next version of the DSM may diagnose you as Key Holder with Evangelical tendencies.

To Nathan Filer. Authorship of this book is the definition of a good deed. Thank you.

This should be a compulsory text….

Very interesting and easy to understand.

This book is so interesting. As someone who has a family member suffering psychosis, I found it to be informative and eye opening.

Enlightening

Excellent insight into mental health, no fluff, raw stories backed by deep knowledge and understanding of the causes of mental health, and seeks to have a more empathic view on those suffering

Balanced and insightful

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Emotional only to the extent of allowing the reader to connect with the why, and easy to understand for someone who’d find medical journals somewhat challenging.

Must read

I really enjoyed this book. I think it should be essential reading for everyone. The author broaches the subject of mental health in an approachable, informative, sensitive way, whilst also maintaining a level of humour that does not detract from some of the (heartbreaking) stories. Very well done

Brilliant, intelligent and thought provoking
