Diagnonsense Ep. 26: Norway, DSM, and Mental Health Ethics

Maybe don't forge court documents.
What if you could get an unfiltered take on Norway's mental health care system, complete with a sprinkle of humor and a dash of controversy? In this episode of Diagnonsense, the hosts dive headfirst into a spirited discussion about Norway's approach to mental health care, including involuntary evaluations and the ethics surrounding them.
With a mix of hypothetical scenarios and real-world examples, they explore the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) and its role in shaping mental health diagnoses. But that's not all—there's also a deep dive into gambling addiction and how it fits into the broader mental health landscape. The conversation doesn't shy away from tough questions, like the importance of checks and balances in the mental health system and the value of peer support and a love-based approach.
As the episode wraps up, the hosts leave listeners with a memorable quote: 'Maybe don't forge court documents'. It's a cheeky yet poignant reminder of the need for integrity in mental health care. If you're looking for an episode that blends serious topics with a bit of irreverence, this one's for you.
