(Ex-) users and survivors of psychiatry, therapists, psychiatrists, lawyers, social scientists and relatives report about their alternative work, their successes, their individual and collective experiences.

These are some of the main questions, addressed by the 61 authors:
* What helps me if I go mad?
* How can I find trustworthy help for a relative or a friend in need?
* How can I protect myself from coercive treatment?
* As a family member or friend, how can I help?
* What should I do if I can no longer bear to work in the mental health field?
* What are the alternatives to psychiatry?
* How can I get involved in creating alternatives?
* Assuming psychiatry would be abolished, what do you propose instead?
