What is #MadStudies? Read wp.me/p4W5et-23 by .@LucyLuciaCosta & intro to Mad Matters (.@drblefrancois et al) academia.edu/3819953/Introd…

Very excited to announce our book MADNESS VIOLENCE & POWER will be out in May. Thanks to fellow co-editors Andrea Daley & Peter Beresford for remaining committed through many seasons & to our advisory & the authors who were also patient &supportive. Some great essays in the book

When in #MadStudies we talk about the influence of Thomas Szasz, we need to talk about transphobia. Here is his endorsement on the cover of an infamous transphobic text. Transphobia is not just Szasz, not just historic, it’s a problem in Mad Studies today. @MadStudies

@treemunity Have you checked out #MadStudies @MadStudies? They have Facebook group where people can connect - madstudies2014.wordpress.com

@MadStudies Please spread the word to fellow activists, consumer/survivors and peers: @willhall is working on an international research study on anti psychotic medication withdrawal as part of his PhD with Maastricht University. Take the survey @ antipsychoticwithdrawalsurvey.com

There is a whole rich history of work done within the survivor movement. @MadStudies are a great source of information for this, they also have a Facebook group where resources are shared within the group, and a little library of papers to download. Good way of keeping up to date
