<body><p>Sir,</p>
<p>The editorial ‘Antipsychiatry: Meeting the challenge’<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CIT1">1</xref>
 is interesting and thought-provoking. When the discipline of psychiatry was being impacted by the <italic>Antipsychiatry</italic>
 movement in the 1970s, there were no comments or even any critique on this topic in the <italic>Indian Journal of Psychiatry!</italic>
 It is good to see that our journal, albeit after 35 years, has discussed the issue editorially in the present context; it has also tried to strike a balance between the two opposing views: ‘…the willingness to accept the valid criticisms and the possible abuses or “wrongs” of psychiatry, as well as to be open to a dialogue or multilogue and review of practices if required would not only be strategically sound but also ethically warranted.’</p>
<p>This has opened up possibilities to practice psychiatry not determined by biology alone but a multiverse of episteme that contributes to our knowledge of mental healing. In a recent article, Paul Grobstein, a neuroscientist, has seen science as a culture of ‘story telling and story revising’.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CIT2">2</xref>
</p>
<p>However, unlike Grobstein, who wanted to keep science within the boundaries of positivism, I would like to comment on the issue of <italic>Antipsychiatry</italic>
 and <italic>Postpsychiatry.</italic>
 The concept of <italic>Antipsychiatry</italic>
 has lost ground in the present context because of its analytical category being oppositional, dichotomous and binary. Such analyses will eventually take a linear and progressive course, proposing another modernist utopia. The concept of <italic>Postpsychiatry</italic>
 moved away from this trap and interpreted contemporary changes using tools of continental philosophy including postmodernism. Thomas and Bracken<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CIT3">3</xref>
 have explained the differences between ‘anti’ and ‘critical’ psychiatry and argued why psychiatry needs to be analysed from pluralistic viewpoints by challenging the omnipotence and centrality of a deterministic and positivist position. Similar issues were raised 4 years ago by a scholar from the University of Pittsburgh, USA.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CIT4">4</xref>
</p>
<p>Our situation is different from Bracken and Bradley because our modernity is received through colonialism and can best be called postcolonial when the debate on de-colonization is quite vibrant.<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CIT5">5</xref>
 For us, psychiatry brings the challenge of negotiating both modern and non-modern discourses and constructing a course of development that acknowledges the multiverse we live in. This may help in generating <italic>our</italic>
 own theories of psychiatry.</p>
