Anthony Fidler discusses how western psychiatry failed to help him when he experienced occasional episodes of highly altered states (also called psychosis). Instead, he learned to navigate through these states of consciousness using mindfulness, connection practices, and other spiritual tools. Does western culture need to find a better relationship to extreme states of consciousness? Can such experiences even have a positive side, and be important stages of growth?
