Well I am all for Open Dialogue but even the Finnish model took quite a few years to get everyone trained..
With regard to Stigma, we will have to agree to disagree as if you read about experiences of people with particular labels...well stigma is alive and kicking..BPD folk were seen as attention seekers and I think still have huge difficulties in getting help when needed..then there are folks who might have alcohol ie drug issues and they are referred as junkies, iceheads method heads..still not helpful to admitting you need help when media continues to portray vulnerable people as crazy, out of control and dangerous. Then there 's the language of non compliance, lacking insight..

Here's to challenging the system!
