This week we're trying to work out whether putting labels on people is helpful, or whether it might have unforeseen consequences that actually prevent us from getting better. Martin talks about how an insistence on always acknowledging a condition doesn't necessarily make it easier to deal with, and Graham forgets the word "cocaine".

Martin tries to convince me that I like Oasis and questions me on my preferences regarding the main characters in hit US sitcom "Friends".

In this week's episode, Martin tells us a story that illustrates how we sometimes tell ourselves what we want to believe. We discuss the best way to respond to someone who has finally reached the point at which they tell you they think they've got a problem, and ask ourselves how many times it's OK to be arrested because you're off your face on drink or drugs.
