Il existe des propos troublants sur la maladie mentale qui circulent dans notre pays et plus au sud, et ils ne peuvent rester sans réponse. Ces propos ne sont pas seulement blessants, ils sont odieux, ils sont dangereux.
Or, ce n’est pas parce que ce type de langage est grossier, impoli ou politiquement incorrect. Lorsque la maladie mentale est dépeinte publiquement comme une menace violente et non pas comme un diagnostic médical, une population diversifiée est stéréotypée et déshumanisée. Et de cette façon, les personnes qui ont une maladie mentale sont offertes en spectacle.
Depuis maintenant un certain temps, il y a un vaste mouvement de personnes et d’organismes au Canada qui luttent contre la stigmatisation liée à la maladie mentale. Et nous avons fait des progrès.
Nous ne pouvons pas laisser la tendance s’inverser.

Des mots blessants sur la violence et la maladie mentale - CMHA National
Des mots blessants sur la violence et la maladie mentale Il existe des propos troublants sur la maladie mentale qui circulent dans notre pays et plus au sud, et ils ne peuvent rester sans réponse....There is troubling language circulating about mental illness in our country, and to the south, and it can’t stand unchallenged. The language is not just hurtful. It is ugly, and it is dangerous.
It’s not just that certain language is coarse or impolite, or politically incorrect. When mental illness is publicly depicted as a violent threat and not a medical diagnosis, a diverse population is stereotyped and dehumanized. It makes a spectacle out of people with mental illnesses.
There is a vast movement of people and organizations in Canada that has been calling out stigma around mental illness for some time now. And we’ve made progress.
We can’t let the tide turn back.

Harmful words about violence and mental illness - CMHA National
Harmful words about violence and mental illness There is troubling language circulating about mental illness in our country, and to the south, and it can’t stand unchallenged. The language is not ju...The "language" is just cosmetic. The distrust of those with mental health issues and the lack of willingness to learn about Mental Illness runs DEEP. Attitudes need to be changed for any changes in the "language" to mean anything at all.
Ignorance and stupidity abound with some who should know better!
With my illness I'm more likely to die by suicide vs. murdering someone.
Illness is not criminality. Shirt anyone
I have suffered from various mental disorders. I am an advocate for those who suffer from mental illness. But to say that all those who are mentally ill are not dangerous is not correct. I was an RN in the 70's when people were being discharged from most institutions. I was on a locked ward with a delusional young man ( schizophrenic ) who had his own orderly to keep him from harming people, and he was medicated. He was discharged to his elderly parents who were completely lost - they were terrified as they had no idea how to take care of him on their own. We nurses were worried for them as well. Another patient was a rapist and violent. I saw him walking down the street a while later near our nursing school and my heart froze. We had a man in my province on a bus to Winnipeg who stabbed and killed a complete stranger, a young man who was sitting beside him, and was eating parts of his body before the police could get in the bus. Definitely mentally ill. Admitted to Psych Hospital. Also, women who have Post Partum Psychosis have taken the lives of their children and sometimes killed themselves as well. I had Post Partum Psychosis at 28. I harmed no one, but my delusion was different. No words on this earth to describe what I lived through. I could understand that women could do these things. Are sociopaths and psychopaths mentally ill? Anyone who is delusional can be dangerous. And they usually do not confide their delusion to anyone. I have seen it in happen in my own family. Yes, most of us who have mental illnesses or disorders are usually more of a danger to ourselves, of course. But many delusional people fly under the radar until they do something terrible.
Filmmaker Rob Comeau has been a big time supporter of CMHAs across the country, and we're excited to share that the trailer for his new short film about #Depression is now available to watch.

Synopsis: Everyone wears a mask. But can we take it off? Unmasking is a striking look at the vulnerability of coming to terms with the pain that many of us carry
