If Not Now, When? As TORTURE AWARENESS MONTH begins, @APA has still NOT responded to last year's broadly endorsed call for 1) apology to torture victims & 2) financial support to orgs that support them. https://t.co/4mJdAEASVS @P4HR @theCCR @CVTorg @amnestyusa @SPSSI @PsySR_org

Apologies for my language but people are being shot, bombed, forced off their land and have been consistently for nearly 80 years and all we can do is quibble about the semantics of using “apartheid” as both punctuation and shorthand?

How did Italian national tv cover the Italian mental health reform of 1978, which outlawed psychiatric hospitals? I had uploaded a couple of excerpts from a tv programme of the time, subtitling them in English. Have a look if you missed it!

This is a powerful story in the NYT today featuring @MHFirstOak.

It's makes a clear case that more prisons & more police do nothing to stop violence or prevent mental health crises.

We need more housing & more mental health resources. It's that simple.

I cannot recommend @blackflaghag & @Zghartawi's "Psychoanalysis Under Occupation" enough in how it, among other things, distills psychological effects of death anxiety many Palestinians experience under Israeli settler colonialism; children are not exempt.

The pediatrician in the video, Dr. Ismail, said that Rayan effectively died of a panic attack: that his little heart and body couldn't control his reaction to the fear of being chased by the soldiers, and so he just dropped after arriving at home.
