Two waves (1950s & 1970s) of systemic deinstitutionalisation and there are more “beds” than before; they just look different.

Busting the Deinstitutionalization Myth: We Actually Have More Beds Than Ever Before
New data upends common beliefs about asylum closures, deinstitutionalization, and rates of psychiatric coercion.

Mad Crip doula: offering holistic and emotional spiritual bodymind care, mixed with practical and crisis support (and plant medicine). moving from a liberation-centered and anti-oppressive lens. a transition doula with skills in: abortion, death, grief, Madness, and Disability.

stefaniekaufman.com/madcripdou

endorsing: non-carceral, peer-led mental health care systems that exist outside of the state, reimagining everything we’ve come to learn about madness, and intervening in systems that oppress, disappear, and kill Disabled and mad folks.

Please Note: I don’t know Them in any capacity and They sure look bad-ass

The 19th - Newly disabled people aren’t given a ‘how-to’ guide. Disability doulas are closing those gaps.

Disability doula. Peer support. Social support. Physical support. Cultural roots.

Open Minded Online
sharing ideas and resources about holistic approaches to emotional and social wellbeing

We are two people who both have a great passion for holistic approaches to mental health. This passion has grown out of our own experiences of receiving traditional psychiatric treatment and finding it lacking.

We believe that it is possible to make sense of intense states of mind often described as psychosis.

Project MUSE - Quagmires of Affect: Madness, Labor, Whiteness, and Ideological Disavowal

reading Rachel Gorman's (2017) "Quagmires of Affect: Madness, Labor, Whiteness, and Ideological Disavowal"

doi.org/10.1353/aq.2017.0025

thinking about mental health "recovery" & wondering: recovering *what*?

is "recovery" about recovering:
a) lost "function" (clinical model)
b) lost self-determination (personal/peer model)
c) lost futures (peer futurity model), and/or*
d) lost white privilege?

* "and" bc function, self-determination, and futurity are white-coded

I am thinking (and looking for readings to explore more) about "mental health" as a bio-colonial construct

everything is framed as a mental health problem or intervention -- that construct is enforced on other people & cultures as both process and effect of colonialism, in a way that leigitimizes Western biopsychiatric jurisdiction over broader social/cultural/material/etc phenomena.

Super cool resource & literature. Need more time in a day!!! I just read the interview with Sofia Jeppsson
—
The series is designed to provide a public venue for discussion with disabled philosophers about a range of topics, including their philosophical work on disability; the place of philosophy of disability vis-à-vis the discipline and profession; their experiences of institutional exclusion and personal and structural gaslighting in philosophy, in particular, and in academia, more generally; resistance to ableism, racism, sexism, and other apparatuses of power; accessibility; and anti-oppressive pedagogy.

Sanism is nested within and alongside neoliberal virtues. Colonization. Ableism. Racism. and and and.
State violence is the central theme
Upholds the normal/abnormal binary
Historical pathologization of marginalized groups

I handed out over 200 (!!!) zines throughout the PeerWorks conference, summarizing some of my research on peer support!

(I spent the past week doing nothing but printing, folding, & cutting paper -- my hands hurt so badly, and I definitely don't reccommend making so many zines in such a short time -- but it was worth it!)

I'm going to take the next few days to rest and recover, then it's onto the next project!

On Tuesday and Wednesday, I attended the annual PeerWorks conference and delivered a presentation called "Work as Recovery: Warning Signs of Dystopian Futures?"

This presentation explored one potential reason why peer support is undervalued & underpaid, drawing discursive connections between peer support, sheltered workshops, and work therapy in 19th-20th century insane asylums.

Can Mad people be epistemically sound??? YUUUP

rationality is different from common sense.
Common sense is a cultural way of knowing.
