Recent developments in the field of psychoanalytic infant observation are considered as a basis for extending the dyadic focus of the technique to encompass a group orientated perspective. A provisional method of `group-as-a-whole infant observation' is presented using illustrative material and is accompanied by a contextualizing analysis. It is posited that group observation of infants and children may highlight group dynamics in unrefined forms and may therefore be a useful resource not only in the training of group practitioners but also as a way of deepening group and social theory.

The author recounts elements in her stay at a Therapeutic Community that enabled her as a mental health nursing student, to overcome resistance to acknowledging her own vulnerabilities. Reflecting on that experience, she identifies the qualities that professionals who experience `life on the other side' may emerge with, and the resultant benefits. The author focuses, finally, on her struggle to integrate the experience of having been labelled with severe psychopathology into her sense of self as she moves along a career path through the role of Nurse Therapist and on to group-analytic training, addressing the need for a more inclusive approach to validating such personal experience as something that might valuably inform clinical practice.
