About this deal

So, I was particularly educated by the way the book encouraged the reader to explore who would be negatively impacted, and were that change to be brought about. I would like to record a Professional account of my Recovery because I genuinely need to – to protect myself against misrepresentation*.

All are justifiably impassioned and subversive; yet reasoned, full of wisdom, common sense and rigorous analysis, informed by the latest evidence on trauma and attachment. This is exactly the message that the self proclaimed “holistic psychologists” have been spewing as truth for decades now, especially the “holistic” psychologists who like to profiteer off of covering up sexual abuse of small children for the religions, like my former psychologist. These posts are designed to serve as a public forum for a discussion—broadly speaking—of psychiatry and its treatments. When I pointed out that this was akin to wearing signs saying “I’m a n****r” or “I’m a sp*c” my comment was removed. Wasn’t sexuality like being gay, lesbian, or bisexual considered a mental disease to be controlled or cured until recent history too (if it still isn’t)?

Including a chapter from our Founder, Lisa Thompson, exploring moving 'towards a trauma-informed approach with people who have experienced sexual violence. My core team of 30 counsellors and college students will all be reading this book because quite frankly it would be an outrage not to.

In the meantime, I urge you to take a look—we welcome members from across the globe, and are indebted to Mad in America for links to some of the most popular articles and blogs. Since then, they have delivered events in towns and cities across the UK, bringing together activists, survivors and professionals to debate psychiatric diagnosis.And the more I read the more curious I became about the resistance to change and the difficulties that are faced when trying to bring about change.
