This book deploys concepts and insights from philosophy of psychiatry, phenomenology, and social epistemology to elucidate the role of silence in the lives of individuals with mental disorder. It contends that lived experiences of silence play underappreciated and vital roles in the lives of many people with mental disorders, and that a better understanding of these roles could enhance mental healthcare and policy.
Despite the importance of silence in relation to mental health, empirically orientated mental health professionals and researchers have paid little attention to lived experiences of silence. Philosophers of medicine and medical humanities scholars, meanwhile, have neglected silence generally. Drawing on first-hand accounts of individuals with depression and bipolar disorder from different genders and ethnicities, this book sheds light on the variety and meaning of the silences that people with such disorders experience. The book develops a taxonomy of such silences based on their phenomenological structure, which is then used to suggest improvements to mental healthcare practice, policy, and activism. Among other things, it shows that a better understanding of silences in mental disorder can help us identify and nurture instances of silence that support recovery.
Silence in Mood Disorders will appeal to scholars and advanced students working in philosophy of psychiatry, phenomenology, disability studies, and the medical humanities.

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. We live in a society that valorises speech and treats silence as a harm to be broken. This assumption runs especially deep in mental health discourse, where silence is both medicalised as a symptom and as a cause and targeted by campaigns urging people to open up. Silence in Mood Disorders challenges the dominant understanding of silence in mental illness, arguing that it is not only conceptually impoverished but potentially damaging to the very people it claims to help.Drawing on first-person accounts of depression and bipolar disorder alongside phenomenology, social epistemology, and silence studies, this book shows that silence in mood disorders is a far more diverse and complex phenomenon than prevailing assumptions allow. To make sense of this diversity, the book develops a set of interconnected conceptual resources for thinking about silence. Central among these is an account of silence as a fragile, embodied, and epistemically significant human capacity, whose disruption may take different forms in depression and mania. These resources are then used to suggest how mental health research, clinical practice, policy, and activism might respond to silence with greater care and discernment.Silence in Mood Disorders will appeal to scholars and advanced students in philosophy of psychiatry, phenomenology, and social epistemology, and will reward anyone working in mental health research, the medical humanities, or disability studies. This book deploys concepts and insights from philosophy of psychiatry, phenomenology, and social epistemology to elucidate the role of silence in the lives of individuals with mental disorder.
