I live in France. I find the idea that non-american mental health workers are somehow unconcerned by the evils of modern-day psychiatry quite baffling. I’m not a mental health worker but the question of psychiatry is not one that normal people don’t talk about here. Everyone is concerned in one way or another. We all know people who are are affected in some way. Also we hear about mental health workers’ protests. The pharmaceutical lobby exists here as well. As does dehumanising mainstream psychiatry. The US is not a bubble. It may appear to be at the forefront of the capitalist system but that system is worldwide. Anarchists need to have a worldview even if we (many of us) believe in grassroots, local organisation.
In friendship

Thanks again for interviewing us 🙂

I know there was a request for more resources so i just want to drop this here: https://microcosmpublishing.com/catalog/zines/833

Word Salad is a great zine series on radical mental health from psychiatric survivors. It is mostly personal stories about going through unconsensual hospitalization, trauma treatment, etc. It really gave me a better idea of what we mean when we say “radical mental health.”
