The mainstream 'mental health community' is, in the main, stuck in the 1990s, talking the language of their 'carers' but with very little in the way of critical engagement - it often lacks the ideas, the vocabulary and the organisation to even see the need for fundamental change.
So, it tends to fall into the trap of talking in isolating and stigmatising diagnostic and medical terms, and engages in panoptic self-surveillance that doesn't seem to get it anywhere. This has led to a situation where people call for more 'mental health' services, but fail to see that that the system and the society we currently have cause widespread harm and need radical reform.
What is new is what's been called the 'DSM mindset', where 'compliance culture' is so prevalent that popular myths are voiced with absolute certainty, leaving most people in the dark about better options that are available, comprehensively thought through, and which offer a hopeful future that the current system fails to provide.
There are plenty of people who talk in more critically engaged, invigorating, and constructive ways about human distress, with interesting ideas about what to do about it. The following resources could be the start of you not only discovering, but also becoming one of them.
