Abstrakt		The article describes the psychic injuries that originate from psychiatric hospitalisation as well as how an advocate can help relieving them. These injuries are: drug dependence, life-long stigmatisation, low self-esteem and self-confidence, reinforcement of a "false ego", repeated suppression of a "felt ego", altered relationships with family, friends and at workplace, and loss of goals in life. The article stresses on the counseling work of the advocate, but his range of action is much wider, including legal and psychosocial interventions into the user's surroundings. The basic goal of advocacy is to redirect power towards the user, so that he may gain as much control as possible over his own life.
