The self autonomy top hit is self , autonomy thus giving a different meaning...

please re-see my post (including parenthetical).
edit: I'll admit to not looking at the results too deeply, but 5 of 10 on the first page are 'self-autonomy', and also 8 of 20; that's not "not".

I apologise then on seeing some genuine psychiatric books with the term self-autonomy in them - they should know better! Especially as they probably did a little bit of working at university and know that auto means self...tsk tsk
p.s. autonomy is, quite literally, "independent, living by one's own laws," from auto- "self" + nomos "custom, law". In political ideological speak it means self-rule, free from outside interference (found in anarchism)

Autonomy, as a political term, generally refers to a state being autonomous in reference to some larger state of which it is a part. I could see self-autonomy being used as a term of art in psychiatry where the self- is added to differentiate it from political autonomy. I would say that objections to the term self-autonomy would then just be overly literal objections to what really amounts to precision in language, not an uncommon trait in the field of peevology.

I only ever used autonomy whilst discussing the anarchist ideology because it was generally accepted that governments or states were ruling themselves as well as the state...autonomy tends to be used as a replacement for the state dictates that anarchists believe in (autonomy and no state or any authority except your own)

Well, that was weird. I went to edit the spam post...and the link wasn't there! So I just deleted the whole thing. If that was not actually spam but something we should be interested in, I offer my apologies and ask the post-er to re-post it with perhaps some explanation.
