I learned about these studies .

Typically : 12 people are paid to participate in these studies . 2 die , 3 drop out , 7 finish the study .

ONE WEEK AWAY!

Mad in America Presents: Supporting Extreme States, Psychosis & Dissociation

Saturday, March 9, 2024 11AM PST, 2PM EST, 7PM GMT, 8PM CET

Mad in America presents a special panel discussion on understanding and supporting those experiencing extreme states, psychosis, and dissociation. Perhaps contrary to popular belief, our main focus will be how engaging and validating these states can serve as a supportive tool for healing. We’ll have the unique opportunity to explore the topic through the perspectives of survivors, family members, and therapists. Extensive resources will be shared, and the panel will conclude with an open audience Q&A.

Rethinking Psychosis: Nursing’s Role in Challenging Psychiatry’s Biological Paradigm

My 1st nurse in the psychiatric ER , leaned down and whispered

” honey you don’t belong here ” , which I knew in my heart but

I had to follow through . Later , I looked up to see a woman with her

arms and hands focused on choking me to death ; I screamed

and she was removed to solitary in a straight jacket..

nightmare stuff to a 37 year old Mom and wife of a highly distorted

man , never a partner , who needed me at home to watch his sons

age 11, 6, and 6 ..

Xanax , more addictive that the worst street drug , was determined to

be suspected Bipolar , disregarding my trauma , my abuse ( I’d been hit )

and altered my life forever more , removing me from sons , acknowledging

the dark heart and soul of X , but determined to make it work .

I had no one to work it out with …shadow swallowed him up long

ago.. he wanted company , he’s got ” his sons / grandchildren ” to

believe him ..
