Mad Pride

About Mad Pride

This group was set up to focus on the experiences of mentally ill people.

Many mentally ill people are abused daily in hospitals, care centres, at home and in the community.

Abuse can be mental, physical, spiritual or financial.

This group is for anyone with anything to say on this subject, whether that be from an artistic, personal, political or other viewpoint.

Feel free to post any information / opinions / images that you feel could help in any way towards bringing about an end to the abuse of people diagnosed with a mental illness.

Highlighting good things about your experiences is also a part of this group - we can't move foreward unless we also acknowledge those who are for us and with us.

Welcome to the group.
You don't have to be mad to post here, but it helps :-)
