Pastor's Favorite Mental Health Radio Program -- Madness Radio -- Great Interviews and Insights
From interviews with people like Dr. Peter Breggin and Robert Whitaker, to fascinating insights from people like Rufus May, Sharna Olfman, and Paula Caplan, Madness Radio is a must listen to program for people with an interest in mental health, spiritual recovery, and stories of people who have survived abuse and misunderstanding.
There are just so many good things I could say about the Madness Radio Program that I don't know where to start.
Maybe I will start by just quoting something from Madness Radio's website
An hour-long interview format, Madness Radio focuses on personal experiences of 'madness' and extreme states of consciousness from beyond conventional perspectives and mainstream treatments. Madness Radio also features authors, advocates, and researchers on madness-related topics, including civil rights, science, policy reform, holistic health, history, and art.
Madness Radio presents voices often marginalized by other media, and takes a critical approach to mental health policy, corporate marketing, and traditional medical science. Each in-depth interview challenges listeners to a new understanding of experiences that are often stereotyped and feared, and encourages reconsideration of how to improve care and truly meet human needs. The show respects all treatment and medication choices people make, while providing an opportunity to hear outsider perspectives and overcome misinformation. Madness Radio is part of the international movement for diverse-ability rights, informed consent, and self-determination, and envisions a community development rather than medical approach to human emotional distress.
If you are interested in hearing from people who had mental health issues and successfully navigated the maze of treatment, meds, and bureaucracy, and who have been there and done that. These people have great souls, and they share their personal experiences with honesty and courage, and their insights are well worth reading and listening to.
Will Hall has also collected some really great resources for you to read. It is so refreshing to hear from a diverse group of people who have much to share.
