When the Bird and the Book Disagree...

Sue Bergeson
Thursday, July 31, 2008

 

In the meantime, I have one piece of advice for providers. In the words of the late, great James Audubon: "When the bird and the book disagree, always believe the bird." And for the record, I am the bird ... it's my world ... and you need to pay attention to whatever words I choose to describe living in it.

 

Where do you weigh in on the language used in the mental health field?
