Emma Goude is an international award winning documentary filmmaker who started out at the BBC. Having had six psychiatric admissions, one of them under a sectioning, she has written My Beautiful Psychosis to change the perception of psychosis as a devastating and stigmatising illness. She hopes that sharing her story will inspire others, improve attitudes and ultimately contribute to a better system of care. She is currently living in Buenos Aires where she is following her passion for dancing tango.

She likes to party and take drugs. until she decides to give them up. and that's when the insomnia starts. After five nights without sleep she ends up in AandE. Three questions determine whether she is sane or not. Three questions stand between her and the psychiatric ward. She gets them wrong.Emma is an atheist, a skeptical cynic who chose dope over God, so when she has some spiritual experiences she is not entirely sure if she is delusional. The psychiatric system has forgotten that 'psyche' means soul. All they know about is medication and they have ways of making her take it. It becomes a game she has to play in order to get out. It is also a perception of herself she must do battle with in order to stand strong in her belief that her psychosis is some kind of awakening. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9781912807956
