  An expert's guide to humanizing psychosis through communication offers key insights for family and friends to support loved ones during mental health crises. 
   
   
   
  Are we all a little crazy? Roughly fifteen percent of the population will have a psychotic experience, in which they lose contact with reality. Yet we often struggle to understand and talk about psychosis. Interactions between people build on the stories they tell each other—stories about the past, about who they are or what they want. In psychosis we can no longer rely on these stories, this shared language. So how should we communicate with someone experiencing reality in a radically different way than we are? 
   
   
   
  Drawing on his work in psychoanalysis, Stijn Vanheule seeks to answer this question, which carries significant implications for mental health as a whole. With a combination of theory from Freud to Lacan, present-day research, and compelling examples from his own patients and well-known figures such as director David Lynch and artist Yayoi Kusama, he explores psychosis in an engaging way that can benefit those suffering from it as well as the people who care for and interact with them.

  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  “The Righteous Mind” by Jonathan Haidt explores the psychology of morality and its impact on politics and society. Haidt examines how humans make moral judgments, arguing that intuition, rather than reason, plays the primary role in shaping our beliefs. He delves into the moral foundations that differ between liberals and conservatives, emphasizing how groupishness and moral narratives influence political divisions. The book uses insights from moral psychology, evolutionary theory, and cultural analysis to explain why people are so often divided by politics and religion, and suggests ways to foster understanding across ideological divides.
