In 1979, I wrote a personal paper on psychiatry viewed from retirement (Jones, 1979). Six years later Wounded Healers included a chapter by me (Phoenix, 1985). In the first I was coy about the nature of my ‘personal crisis’; in the second, I could pseudonymously be frank. Now, at 76, my further account appears above my own name.
