Writing the reflexive self: an autoethnography of alcoholism and the impact of psychotherapy culture.

Abstract:

:Experimental ethnography enables the use of fictionalized accounts that celebrate partial truths and challenge realist and positivist ethnographic authority. Literary devices drawn from fiction arguably allow social researchers to better portray real events. Fiction, which should not be regarded as synonymous with falsehood, enables the telling of tales in dramatic and enjoyable ways. In this account - an autoethnography of alcoholism and the impact of therapy culture - the author's intention is not to make claims for a final word or closure on the topics raised, and juxtaposed with appropriate social theory. It is rather hoped that the text will trigger further meaning creation on the part of the reader and, in terms of praxis, contribute towards creating a kinder and more humane mental health nursing and therapy practice and in the 'off duty' world.
