Book: Hearing voices, demonic and divine

#RCPsychIC
Respondents: hearing voices

Conversations with God.

Does it feel like the voices that you hear have their own character?

#RCPsychIC
Discontinuities

#RCPsychIC Professor Christopher C.H. Cook @cchcook
Hearing voices: Positive experiences, and comfort, also good emotionally

Conclusions: psychiatrists need to be aware that hearing voices don't always mean psychological issues

Thank you Dr Angela Woods @literarti

#RCPsychIC
Most research was done on Christian groups and in the west. We don't know if they occur in other religious groups - different patterns may occur but we haven't got the data on other beliefs.

#RCPsychIC
Thank you to all our speakers from our last session of our first virtual Congress!

Hope everyone had a good lunch! Now we look at the lessons we can learn from the 'asylum era', chaired by @DianeGoslar, an expert by experience. We'll also hear from @PeterNaxos, @claire_hilton6 and Dr Allan Beveridge. #RCPsychIC
@DianeGoslar @PeterNaxos @claire_hilton6 Change is desperately needed – such as the total dismantling of stigma – but we have evidence change can happen, says @DianeGoslar. One example of change is that Diane, a patient, is chairing this session. #RCPsychIC
@DianeGoslar @PeterNaxos @claire_hilton6 The first story comes from @PeterNaxos, who speaks of Henrietta, a patient in Kingston Asylum, in 1859. She found within herself a resolve she was never aware of, which enabled her to survive a situation which was totally at odds with anything she'd experienced before. #RCPsychIC
