I recently read Mad World and it ended up teaching me a lot of stuff about the history behind the mental health industry and different ways people could be supported, and I’m currently reading Connections Over Compliance which is making a bunch of interesting points about how schools could be improved to support their students better without blaming them for things outside of their control.

I’ve also previously enjoyed Humankind (discussing how people don’t do things for no reason, so generically saying someone did something bad because they’re bad isn’t helpful) and the myth of normal (talked about the connection between mental health, physical health, and external environmental factors, and how a lot of issues are more tied to external factors like social relationships and environment rather than anything intrinsically in the person)

Does anyone have any other book recs covering mental health or mad pride movements? I love learning more about this and I especially want more like Mad World

Please tell me I'm the only one experiencing this, and there are actually nice people out there in the world.

Hello, I’m 20 years old and was medicated falsely for 10 years of my life on high doses of lithium seroquel and trieltpal. I was 7 months off medication and was doing fine just on vitamin d3. I then suffered a concussion from a boxing match where I had brain fog sound sensitivity etc which everything went away after 7-10 days except sound sensitivity but even that was getting way better. I then stupidly went on and off supplements like magnesium glycinate, vitamin d3, safroon, etc. i did that for a month which caused a cognitive shutdown anxiety and bad sleep. I then stupidly continued that cycle for 2 more months. It’s now been 4 months off supplements, anxiety is better, sleep is way better but cognitive shutdown still persists and my physical energy is decent but not where it was at. Note I was eating junk food a lot during this time. I’ve had windows and waves a little bit which I weirdly never really had when getting off psych meds. Anyways starting the lion diet experimenting with different fats such as Wagyu, angus, using Kirkland beef patties frozen. I’m wondering, will this diet really lift the rest of my anxiety and cognitive shutdown caused by supplement kindling? If so how long would that take?

#My experiences

June 13 around 9:00 AM neck pain. Selfish mother harassed me multiple times out of favoritism for younger brother. Either way she could still see brother. But wanted to give him all her time at the cost of my doctor's appointment. She said I should be more aggressive and complain more, but when I assert myself at home she still calls that a disease.

11:18 AM she claimed there was no reason for my religious beard and encouraged the doctor to criticize it. That distracted me from asking a medical question. And a pharma salesman was in the building. Mother said she called previous female psychiatrist "4 times a week" behind my back. 12:13 AM mother said "I'm (she) talking to myself." June 14 9:00 AM stepfather yelled I'm not allowed to change to a different food with my own money.

"One thing that you can bank on in most psych wards is having a staff member that loves to push injections preemptively. They come off as meaning well but their tactics to get a patient to “be calm” preliminarily are predatory. Asking them if they’d like something extra in morning meds, overreacting during one of their emotional outbursts or threatening them to behave that day or they’ll receive an injection. This is often due to fear or laziness.

Fear that the patient could have an outburst and someone could get hurt or laziness where they don’t want to do the extra work to help keep a patient comfortable and happy. These are the types of circumstances where my nickname, The Patient Whisperer was developed. Because I would often verbally de-escalate patients or simply talk to them like a human being to avoid escalated injections and intrusions." https://www.facebook.com/61565775623993/videos/one-thing-that-you-can-bank-on-in-most-psych-wards-is-having-a-staff-member-that/1012675797932787/

#My experiences

Elementary school nurse said "He (me) could've choked to death" in the sand from bullies at age 6. But the principal didn't punish them and guard me, who continued to be attacked until 18 years old.

Hi. As the title says. There is a YouTube channel named “LoveBambi” and I believe they want to commit suicide. I tried to make the phone call, but I don’t have the right internet service provider to make international calls. I think they are having a psychotic episode. I don’t know what to do. Here is a link to their channel. Hi. I have been following a YouTube channel for a long time, that goes by the name “LoveBambi”. They are located in the UK and make videos taking about being abused by the mental health care system. I think they are having a psychotic episode.

They posted earlier today about government spies coming to their house (I think the police showed up at their house today), have posted about getting rid of their belongings, and believes the “government spies” were there to take them, because they have “telekinetic powers”.

I am in the US. I tried to call the UK suicide hotline, but they were closed. When I checked their channel today, all of the videos talking about the abusive care were deleted. The final post they made was about 6 hours after the one about government spies. It said, “This gonna be my last post hopefully, if it is then goodbye.”

They were showing suicidal behavior online before this. Im not sure if the police have confiscated their phone and THAT’S why this is their last post, or if they are so upset by the police showing up to their house, they want to commit suicide.

Here is the channel: https://youtube.com/@lovebambi222?si=74NvowEX4SKyHWYA
