Forensic psychiatry in Norway. Maria Sigurjonsdottir Norwegian P sychiatric A ssociation, Section for Forensic P sychiatry. Forensic psychiatry in Norway. The Norwegian Psychiatric Association Section of Forensic Psychiatry The Norwegian Psychological Assosiation The thoughtful and balanced approach that Dr Adshead takes with her patients was impressive. Her "asides" of how patients make her feel are very thoughtful and interesting. I think I probably highlighted more sections in this than in most of the books I've read because they seemed so interesting and worth attention. It is definitely one of the best medical non-fiction books I have read. I would recommend it to anyone with an interest in the subject - from a professional slant or simply interested. There is a fascinating story about Lydia who is a stalker who eventually managed to persuade everybody that she is quite reasonable and rational but then in one of the discussions with the psychiatrist, it turns out that she is so far from reality and still so intent on causing harm to the person she was stalking, that I thought about it for days.

Carl Jung once said that “thinking is hard which is why we judge instead”. This book, ‘the Devil you know: stories of human cruelty and compassion’, will help you think more about people who have done horrific things and hopefully, not go straight to judging. In this remarkable and humane book, Dr Adshead is a psychiatrist who specialises in psychotherapy, gives 12 case studies of people that she has tried to help and support in Broadmoor and other settings of people who have done something wrong and how she has helped them to confront a tragedy and hopefully move on.

Our brains are often layered and sometimes we might feel numb, other times depressed, joyful and angry. Trying to be in a way that these different layers evolve in the thought processes of our mind can be difficult. Tony, I think you’re brave enough to look at something really difficult”…”I’m not brave”. I looked into his eyes. “You don’t think so? Well, I experience you as brave. It takes courage to think about past violence… you’ve shown real courage.” Dr Gwen Adshead is one of Britain's leading forensic psychiatrists. She treats serial killers, arsonists, stalkers, gang members and other individuals who are usually labelled 'monsters'. Whatever their crime, she listens to their stories and helps them to better understand their terrible acts of violence. Here Adshead invites the reader to step with her into the room to meet twelve patients and discover how minds can change. These men and women are revealed in all their complexity and shared humanity. Their stories make a powerful case for rehabilitation over revenge, compassion over condemnation. The Devil You Know will challenge everything you thought you knew about human nature. Lydia appears too well-behaved to be true but Adshead has learned to listen to her intuition as well as her intellect A perspective-shattering work into the minds of violent criminals that reveals profound consequences for human nature and society at large.The ‘patients’ were often uncooperative, and their crimes unspeakable, and the sheer difficulty of engaging with them made unrelentingly uncomfortable reading.

The Devil You Know discusses a number of Dr Adshead's cases throughout her impressive career. It was certainly eye-opening in a number of ways, and sometimes heart-breaking, but unfortunately as a whole it didn't work all that well for me. Note that this is clearly an unpopular opinion, as my fellow readers all loved it. Some cases I found fascinating, others much less so. I disliked the sometimes flowery language, and things like the literary quotes the doctor would think of when she stepped into a room for a consultation that just bugged me and took me out of the experience. Again, this is clearly me being overly sensitive. I also felt that it was somewhat one-sided, monotonous, lots of X or Y grew up in bad circumstances and was exposed to this and that horror and here we are today, with X or Y having committed this or that crime.

I wonder which times of relative social stability and wealth equality these researchers were using to make their comparisons.) Forensic Psychiatry. Chapter 17 Forensic Psychiatry. Forensic psychiatry Antisocial Personalities Stalkers Competency to stand trial. What is forensic psychiatry?. Forensic psychiatry is a branch of medicine which focuses on the interface of law and mental health.Deeply moving . . . the most overwhelming feeling I had on finishing this book was of hope . . . Compassionate and fascinating.' Today’s statistics indicate that seven out of ten people in the UK are likely to experience PTSD in their lives One of the things that is interesting about psychotherapy is it's always looking at the reason for the cause has been something to do with the past and particularly childhood and children trauma and whilst I believe that much of this may well be the case I also work with a lot of young people who do erratic and irrational things, not because something terrible happened to them when young but because of how brain structure occurred, for example those with autism which isn't due to a cause in your past but some part of your brain chemistry doesn't quite work like others or processes the world in a very different way. It's really important when looking at causes and I do believe that early childhood trauma can impact on people but isn’t the only route to why people might develop into different selves. Most people who suffer mental health are often harmless to society and are at greater risk of harm from others than the rest of society. The author is so compassionate and full of wisdom in how she helps these people. Adshead presents us with eleven cases consisting of interviews with eleven violent, and physiologically disturbed criminals. These particular people are deemed mentally ill, so they are housed in psychiatric hospital prisons such as Broadmoor, and here, is where I find it difficult to understand.

The writing itself was average. It was readable, but sometimes Adshead threw in random statistics, which didn't really have any prevalence to the current person being discussed. When we plant a seed no matter how special it might be if it's not put in the right soil, receives the right amount of sunshine and water, the best nutrients, it isn’t going to grow to be a beautiful orchid or whatever flower the seed would become. Instead, it will grow up broken rather than beautiful. The author believes that a lot of early trauma and family disruption can lead to great harm as an adult.
