Dr James Le Bas (PhD) is a consultant psychiatrist who has worked in both private and public practices, including Prince Henry’s Hospital Melbourne. As a junior doctor he discovered the joy of talking to people and he has been a devotee of psychotherapy ever since. He has undertaken family therapy study at the Bouverie Family Centre, Narrative workshops with Michael White and individual therapy at the Melbourne Association of Psychodynamic Psychiatrists. He completed a PhD in 2015 on the role of prestige (social investment) in the affective disorders. He is the author of a dozen academic articles and has recently written beyond BIPOLAR, Ancient Realms, New Directions. This writing centres on his role as an expert participant observer of his own condition – bipolar disorder. He writes a poetic narrative of living with the disorder while trying to understand why and how it occurs. He has evaded hospital for more than two decades. He has written on Jeffery Gray’s three behavioural axes and Jaak Panksepp’s primary affect programs. This has led him to reflect on the primacy of social context and its introjection in mood disorders, being inexplicably carried by biological mechanisms. His work has culminated in the Tesseract as a depiction of the xPolar spectrum. He has also conceived a theoretical path of schizophreniform disorders based on the Bayesian Brain Theory, allostasis and addiction.
