An Emotional Response to the Hearing Voices Network: Anti-Medication ? (ep 46)

Guest:Freddie de Boer

On May 17th, the NY Times Magazine published an article by Daniel Bergner, based on his book The Mind and the Moon. 

The article reports on psychosis , from the point of view of Caroline, who is beset by the hallucinations of psychosis. 

Daniel Bergner explores how to seek a deeper engagement with ourselves and one another—and how to find a better path toward caring for our minds.

Or - does he leave out a huge piece of the picture?

So many comments about the article, which seemed biased toward the Hearing Voices Network. One such response, from Freddie deBoer, has generated over 7,000 YouTube views so far.
