This paper is a theoretical exploration of the concept of Othering in relation to psychiatric nursing. The concept of Othering is examined by working the dualisms of same/other in relation to the dualisms of east/west, man/woman and reason/unreason. Othering is also examined in relation to the construction of knowledge and reality. The role of psychiatry and implications for nursing practice are discussed. Othering is found to be a complex problem which is an inevitability of nursing practice. Possible solutions to the problem of Othering are presented.
