@awaisaftab @realLandsEnd @avierkant @DrRJChapman @HSpandler @SashaDurakov @viscidula "Health Communism" distorts SPK from its very fundamental basis. Health and SPK are like oil and water. The authors also vail the fact that SPK has never ceased to exist. Anyone really interested on SPK should address to their multilingual web page: SPKPFH.de
I've also got more good news to share soon!
@s_golightley @HSpandler Congratulations again Sarah! A wonderful way to spend an afternoon, and looking forward to seeing everything you do next!
And I urge you to check on your clubs to make sure they have the wellbeing support systems in place which are needed. (They don’t) Play YOUR part. It’s time for action not awareness @BarclaysWC #WorldMentalHealthDay
Today we are celebrating #WorldMentalHealthDay We urge all football fans to check on their family, friends and colleagues. Together we can change the game on mental health.
@AsylumMagUK @HSpandler Annabel Sowemimo's recent book Divided is very interesting on this. It goes into how the same guy pathologised Black bodies by suggesting Black people were less sensitive to pain. Unlike his concept of Drapetomania, this caught on in general medicine and has been very harmful.
@AsylumMagUK @HSpandler One of my main impressions on the matter of Cartwright from reading Divided is that his impact shows how racism and white supremacy cut through all medicine, somatic no less than psychiatric.
@__vVvV_VvVv__ @AsylumMagUK @HSpandler I haven't read the whole thing yet, but "Drapetomamia: Rebellion, Defiance, and Free Black Insanity In the Antebellum United States" is an interesting paper so far. Thanks for sharing!
@Iamhereforit1 @AsylumMagUK @HSpandler Yes even if it didn't catch on in practice the very fact it got published in a journal says a lot about the state of things at the time! That said, race science articles still get published in journals today...
@Iamhereforit1 @AsylumMagUK @HSpandler I take it "myth" refers only to the idea that it was a diagnosis that actually came to be widely adopted by the doctors of the time (as some claim) rather than a suggestion proposed in a journal that wasn't ever widely taken up in practice?
Short review of Mad World in the autumn edition of @AsylumMagUK! Very honoured for it to be compared to Peter Sedgwick’s Psychopolitics and Mark Fisher’s Capitalist realism 📘🌍 thanks to @HSpandler and Ian Parker
@JaneStRetCP @nuwandiss @anthony_fidler @AsylumMagUK @JanineBooth @NSUNnews @PSYfem @Shrink_at_Large @SurvivorResNet @suzypuss @HSpandler @AlisonF101 At same time focusing on your internal world whilst supported skillfully, can save lives. Psychotherapy can be a good example of this (it is not always) as well as spiritual practices. Not sure whether there is such a thing as *intrinsically benign* as context plays a big part.
Thank you @CNWLPeerSupport. @HSpandler and I are keen to connect with others interested in exploring/creating restorative approaches. Those people - please get in touch! hopeintheheart.org/contact.
Thank you very much for being with us today. @madwomantalking your video was moving, to share such a personal story takes courage & your message about the power of being heard and that being the first step in creating restorative approaches to mental health was inspirational.
So great to be part of @CNWLPeerSupport's amazing, inspirational conference yesterday, where Tam @madwomantalking presented with @HSpandler about Restorative Approaches to Harm in #mentalhealth and Sophie ran the @AsylumMagUK and @ZinesMad stall.
Fab graphic to accompany and record Tam @madwomantalking and @HSpandler's talk about Restorative Approaches to Harm at @CNWLPeerSupport conference Ancient Approaches in Modern Healthcare. #LXConference2023 @ZinesMad @AsylumMagUK
Very excited that I'll be delivering a workshop on the use of film and theatre in the training of compassionate and reflective health professionals at the 29th International Mental Health Nursing Research Conference at St Catherine's College, Oxford! Can't wait! 😊 @MHNAUK
A little phase-change for me: I'm now Professor of British and Irish History @unibirmingham.
