An invalid psychiatric diagnostic permanent label, which once attained often needlessly dooms the labelled to intervention which is harmful, stigma, problems with employment and other issues.

Research shows those with such problems fare better with alternative interventions than is usual in the West.
John was diagnosed with Schizophrenia at 18 years of age. He was hospitalised and forcebly injected with antipsychotic medication when he became agitated. His symptoms became manageable but has lost interest in everything that was important to him before, has not worked in the five years since and does not seek work. His consultant is happy he has not relapsed.
