Identity

In this episode Dr. Arnd-Caddigan and co-host Leah Faye discuss the various ways in which those suffering from mental illness choose to identify. Today's lecture unpacks how mental suffering can arise when a society chooses to project an identity onto an individual whose sense of self is at conflict with the societal projection.
