Forensic psychiatry is a branch of medicine which focuses on the interface of law and mental health. Dr Gwen Adshead is Visiting Gresham Professor of Psychiatry and currently consultant forensic psychiatrist at Ravenswood House. Prior to this post, she worked at Broadmoor Hospital from 1996, first as Consultant Forensic Psychiatrist, and then as a Consultant in Forensic Psychotherapy. In her role as both a forensic psychiatrist and psychotherapist, Professor Adshead has tried to understand the psychological mechanisms that give rise to violence and life threatening behaviour toward others. She has worked as a member of a therapeutic team whose role is to rehabilitate and offer secure psychiatric care to some of the most vilified and socially rejected members of society.

The Devil You Know Encounters in Forensic Psychiatry

Adshead presents us with eleven cases consisting of interviews with eleven violent, and physiologically disturbed criminals. These particular people are deemed mentally ill, so they are housed in psychiatric hospital prisons such as Broadmoor, and here, is where I find it difficult to understand. With that therapeutic process in mind, when I had finished reading I reflected on how those stories made me feel. I have never worked in forensic psychiatry, but the patients I met through this book made me nostalgic for the wards. Places where we are taught always to sit in the chair closest to the door; where, to an observer, the only thing that distinguishes the doctor from the patient is a lanyard; where a spoon going missing from the dining room is a grave occurrence. As in life, the stories in this book do not always have the happy ending we might crave. We may feel discomfort during a shift in our perspective. We may, temporarily, absorb the pain felt by the patients, and other victims, about whom we have just read. However, the most overwhelming feeling I had on finishing this book was of hope, not only for the patients but for the readers. Over the last 12 months we have all seen too much and therefore, perhaps, become blinded. This insightful, compassionate and fascinating book will help us to move away from our blindness and misconceptions and shine a light on the stories beyond the headlines – stories that desperately need to be heard. In a psychiatric sense faiths are not delusions because they are based on reason and an awareness of doubt, as well as being culturally coherent, whereas delusions are rigid and culturally alien.There is more than one victim in most crimes, and I think this book helps to demonstrate that the victims are not always just who you think. The ‘patients’ were often uncooperative, and their crimes unspeakable, and the sheer difficulty of engaging with them made unrelentingly uncomfortable reading. There is a fascinating story about Lydia who is a stalker who eventually managed to persuade everybody that she is quite reasonable and rational but then in one of the discussions with the psychiatrist, it turns out that she is so far from reality and still so intent on causing harm to the person she was stalking, that I thought about it for days. In another case where a young girl is thought to be causing harm to her baby, that's an interesting observation that many of these people will often say ‘I just thought something was wrong’ and will then go to lengths for others to find that something is wrong when often nothing is wrong. That feeling then overwhelms and takes over them and all their rationality (Munchhausen syndrome by proxy). Note: Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSBP) is a mental health problem in which a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under his or her care, such as a child, an elderly adult, or a person who has a disability.

Instead, it will grow up broken rather than beautiful. The author believes that a lot of early trauma and family disruption can lead to great harm as an adult. A compassionate work, the author succeeds in the difficult task of making the reader feel some empathy with the array of offending characters.The power of group therapy to assist in the rehabilitation of some is uplifting and an important message to populist politicians who like to be seen to be hard on criminals by incarcerating ever larger numbers of the mentally ill, depressed, abused and disadvantaged.
