Abstract

Service user contributions to mental health conferences are now routine. How effective they are at promoting dialogue is not clear. We report a difficult exchange following a presentation about coercive treatment, with our individual reflections on what we learnt. Suggestions are made to improve both the clinical practice and the dialogue.
