NHS psychiatrist, award-winning comedian and best-selling author Dr Benji reveals the weird and wonderful history of mental illness, and his profession's, long, proud history of often making things worse. Think straitjackets, Sigmund Freud and performing lobotomies without an anaesthetic – and sometimes, a medical degree. And crucially: are we any better at treating madness in 2026? 'Funny without turning patients into punchlines' ***** (Telegraph). 'Humane, hilarious and eye-opening' (Guardian). 'The Adam Kay of mental health care' (Times).
