quote [ We met at 18. We wed at 24. At 27, I checked my wife into a psych ward?for the first time. ]
1) this article made me cry because it reminded me of my failed marriage. I lived in fear of the possibility of having to check my wife into the looney bin. This guy actually had to do it. This is his tale.
2) MAD PRIDE! (I had no idea it was a real thing)

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mad_Pride, Mad Pride supposed to be about educating the wider public about mental health issues. Mad Pride activists seek to re-educate the general public on such subjects as the causes of mental disorders, the experiences of those using the mental health system, and the global suicide pandemic.[citation needed]
Which is different to claiming that psychosis is just another way of looking at things, and should be embraced instead of repressed. Which is different to the 'anti-psychiatry' advocates mentioned in the article. cb361 said @ 5:51am GMT on 13th January
