Espen OeinoIt was during those first few days that she gained her name. “When you first put animals in the tank they look for a place to hide and then they often don’t come out until they’ve had a chance to assess the place,” Scheel says. “We had anticipated that and bought several large snails and released a few crab in the tank. They all hid as well but over the next 10 days or so they disappeared one-by-one in the night time. When she realised there was nothing dangerous, she started to come out during the day.” Octopus has assisted on several occasions in recent years.

Gibson began researching the book by compiling the notes and journals of his cousin who lived with the diagnosis of schizophrenia and mysteriously died at age forty. The character of Tom is informed by Gibson’s cousin but not a depiction, allowing for greater creative liberty and for Tom’s story to unfold on its own terms. Gibson also consulted renowned voice-hearer Jacqui Dillon, Chair of the National Hearing Voices Network in England, who shares a snapshot of her journey in the book Living with Voices. Dillon asserts that the plethora of voices she hears are her mind’s creative coping strategy to surviving horrific childhood abuse, “a perfectly natural, human response to devastating experiences” (p. 190). Psychiatry’s attempt to pathologise an understandable response to abuse was deeply damaging to Dillon, who eventually learned to engage and collaborate with her voices rather than suppress them, finding deeper meaning and self-understanding in the process. On May 19 th, Dillon and Gibson joined forces to present at a ISPS UK and Hearing the Voice, Durham University webinar, hosted by Angela Woods, to discuss the ethics and impact of telling stories that reframe and humanise the experience of psychosis and voice-hearing. A recording of their discussion can be accessed here. The book evokes the spirit of the psychiatric survivor and Hearing Voices Movements which are gaining traction in the UK and globally, the latter of which considers voice hearing to be a nonpathological phenomenon or response to trauma that people can learn to cope with; a spectrum of human experience that can even enhance the lives of voice hearers (Escher and Romme, 2011). While The Octopus Man is layered with nuance and never attempts to push a political agenda, the protagonist himself is politicised after spending 20 years being bullied by the mental health system, sectioned, and forced to take a myriad of medications with often devastating side effects. We’re introduced to Rashid, a psychiatric nurse who swings between a false kindness to outright abuse, including sleeping with a patient and administrating harsh antipsychotic injections out of vindictiveness. Yet we are drawn into the perspectives of all characters, including psychiatrists, fellow patients, parents of girlfriends and family members. Particularly poignant is Tom’s relationship with his sister Tess who has stood by him in madness, lucidity, and the complex and beautiful in-between, a bond that reminds us that affliction is not only contained within individual minds but interacts within a social network, often taking its toll on those we love and rely on the most. Social media is choked with inspirational viral photos and videos of unusual animal friendships, but My Octopus Teacheris something very different. A year-long diary about one man and one octopus, it’s full of genuine wonder about the natural world, and frames the central relationship in terms that go beyond the mere “Aww, that’s cute!” response.

The Octopus Man was a joy to read. I cried with laughter and I just plain cried. It is one of the wittiest and most humane pictures of a person and their mind - a timely conversation about mental health from within the perspective of the subject. It's a beautiful book and so incredibly funny. It was astounding to me how funny it was sometimes. After succumbing to the drug trial, Tom falls into the lauded arms of biomedical recovery, a return “to ordinary life, to normality—the consensus perversion (p 313).” The world here is sapped of colour, a stable yet meaningless road of navigating benefits, bad dates and medication regimes, and determining how to afford and prepare a bowl of pasta on PIP with a heavily sedated brain. Compared to the vibrancy of his life as a voice-hearer, when a walk in the forest satiates all senses with beauty, Tom explains his so-called improved life: “I cannot enter these woods as before. I am a ghost now, and cannot share its life (p 200).”
