Show TranscriptProfessor Peter Tyrer, editor of the British Journal of Psychiatry, argues his profession practises 'mental colonialism' on people with long-term, chronic mental illness that's resistant to treatment. His approach is called Nidotherapy -- Nido meaning 'nest' -- focused on changing a person's environment not their personality. And, Jenny relates her poignant identity struggles and triumphs of being a long term 'service user'.

All in the Mind - Nido (nest) therapy: Top psychiatrist issues strong challenge for change
This is an excellent episode of the All in the Mind podcast, hosted by Natasha Mitchell. The idea that changing the environmental context can help heal mental illness is important. We are embedded beings, and that includes our physical environment as well as our culture and biochemistry.
