"House of Mirrors" and "Mental" - both on the way of defining their identities
It is a bit of a different "medical show", in the same way Psychiatry is seen by many as being a quite different thing to other medical specialities. The main issue is not a broken leg or a nasty bug which can be readily visualised by means of in ...
