Embrace Madness as a Pathway to Understanding
Madness serves not only as a manifestation of mental illness but as a connection to historical movements of confinement and resistance. It highlights the need to recognize diverse states of being, challenging the conventional clinical labels such as psychosis. Alternative terminology, like 'altered states' and 'extreme states,' offers a richer understanding and a pathway to justice for those with lived experiences. Engaging with these alternative narratives empowers individuals to reclaim their stories and connect with a broader community of psychiatric survivors.
