Kollektive Krisensitzung und psy-kritische Perspektiven

In the organizer's words:

READING & TALK I edition assemblage

With get well soon

Mental health is increasingly being addressed publicly and recognized as a social concern - but the challenges and stigmatization associated with it remain. Who decides who is mentally 'ill' and 'healthy'? What are the consequences of pathologization processes? The "get well soon" counter-diagnosis book series questions classic concepts of psychiatry and psychology and places them in a power-critical context.

Instead of relying solely on professional help, the authors take a differentiated look at crisis experiences and the potential and risks of collective practices and self-help. The effects of the coronavirus pandemic have once again highlighted the extent to which social inequalities come to light in times of crisis and how differently people are affected.

How can we create structures that not only make diagnoses but also offer real support? This event invites you to think about new perspectives on mental health and to talk together about fairer forms of care.

get well soon is a group of four editors. Some of them are self-diagnosed and/or allies. It is important to them to strengthen diverse, critical perspectives on psychology and psychiatry and to bring them into exchange with each other.
