August 09, 2022Mad In America: Finding A Better Alternative To The Drug-Based Paradigm Of Care With Kermit Cole
The current drug-based paradigm of care tends to leave significant trauma history out. Leaving these things unaddressed keeps people from finding the healing and recovery they need. Mad In America, written by Robert Whitaker, discusses the effectiveness and safety of past and current psychiatric interventions for severe mental illnesses, specifically antipsychotics. It is more than a book since it catalyzes psychiatric care. It expanded to an online platform and non-profit organization later on, where it encourages people to share and publish their stories of real-life experiences about mental health. In this episode, we have Kermit Cole, a founding board member who has been its editor from 2012 to 2014, to tell us more about what they have discovered about drug companies and why other non-drug alternatives can be much more effective. He dives deep into the importance of social relationships and human-to-human connection, incorporating open dialogues and communities to help people. Kermit then discusses the interest that led him to therapeutic work and their organization.
