Eric Mathison is a philosopher and bioethicist and a former clinical ethicist. In this conversation, we discuss why the idea that medicine is about healing may be wrong, what the evidence actually shows about the effectiveness of mental health treatment, and what happens when the system has to label you as disordered before it can help you. We talk about diagnostic labelling and neurodiversity, the disturbing variation between doctors’ subjective judgement, and whose voice actually counts in psychiatric settings. We close with a conversation about the philosophy of death.
