RE: Schizophrenia is NOT a Real Illness; More Psychiatric Survivors will Surface
Nice to see someone try to address this and have an r.b. laing quote

Absolutely. Thanks for recognizing my efforts. I haven't seen much material like this on Steemit yet. Have you seen anything else?
nope, but I think I will add some blogs to this area. I grew up with a schizophrenic parent and agree with laings views. I am one of the only people who knew how to talk to my mom when she is not on medication. I could still make her laugh. That's important. You need to see the humanity and not the stigma. Stigmatisation doesn't help someone with paranoid tendencies. The word schizophrenic labelled on someone can be a form of name calling which has a dehumanising effect.
