OUT OF THE SHADOWS Talking Circle: Third Tuesday of every Month. Continental Country Club, Ponderosa Room @ the Club House, 2nd Floor, 2380 North Oakmont Drive, Flagstaff, AZ 86004. 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm. No Charge.
MAD TALK privately with one another and become kindred spirits. This empathetic forum will chat about past abuses and betrayals in the mental health care establishment, coercion, de-humanizing experiences, gender bias, hurtful labels, misogyny, drug-induced disorders, iatrogenic harm, brain-disabling treatments, toxic medications, adverse drug reactions, drug-drug interactions, withdrawal symptoms, misdiagnosis, chemical lobotomy, past authoritarian relationships with providers, ECT, polypharmacy drug-induced illness, and other brutal humiliations. This positive informal encounter group will emphasize recovery where ‘psychiatric survivors’ can tell their personal stories, listen with their heart and let go of their patient career roles by becoming empowered through learned knowledge and creativity to rediscover their authentic selves.
