The third episode of Ditto Nation examines contemporary mental health culture by challenging the discourse and assumptions that many have taken for granted for decades. It looks at how algorithms, techno-capitalism, as well as pharmaceutical and insurance companies have conspired to shape the way we think about the mind and how it works, often against our best interests. The episode features Joanna Moncrieff – Professor of Critical and Social Psychiatry at University College London – whose work has been foundational in showing that there is no proven link between depression and brain chemistry. It also features a health industry whistle-blower who exposes a deliberate effort to provide prescription medication to self-diagnosed ‘patients’. It asks how we arrived at a place in time where our diagnoses define us, questioning if this is the best or only way to think about our mental health and wellbeing.
