摘要

摘要由前任和现任心理健康服务消费者转变为活动家的心理健康幸存者运动是心理健康领域最有希望的创新和颠覆现象之一(来源,年)。尽管关于这场运动的学术写作正在慢慢积累,但我们还需要更多的实证和理论工作来进一步理解这场开创性的运动,并从中学习。目前的研究承认心理健康幸存者是一个受到持续压迫的群体,并认识到激进主义和抵抗尝试的各种好处,努力促进对心理健康幸存者从服务消费者转变为激进主义者过程的理解。为了实现这一目标,本研究探讨了十名以色列心理健康幸存者转变为活动家的个人历程。这些发现描述了与心理健康系统的艰难和令人崩溃的遭遇。参与者描述了一个持续经历非人化和羞辱的过程,这让幸存者明白,这个系统不会满足他们的需求和愿望,而是他们必须发展自己的声音、观念和应对方式。这种理解是重新审视一个人的需求和愿望的基础,表现为发展更有效和自主的应对方式,包括通过社会行动主义。调查结果和讨论强调了专业界在面对心理健康幸存者提供的严厉和令人不安的证词方面面临的挑战,并呼吁专业人士,包括从业者和研究人员,寻找与这些新颖的变革尝试合作的方法。

From “Patient” to “Activist”: Treatment Experiences, Changing Perceptions, and Resistance of Mental Health Survivors
ABSTRACT The mental health survivors movement, composed of former and current mental health service consumers- turned activists is one of the most promising innovative and subversive phenomenon in the field of mental health (source, year). Although scholarly writing on this movement is slowly cumulating, much more empirical and theoretical work is needed to further our understanding of, and ability to learn from, this pioneering movement. Acknowledging mental health survivors as a population under continuous repression, and recognizing the various benefits of activism and of attempts at resistance, the current study endeavors to promote understanding of the process involved in mental health survivors’ transition from service consumers to activists. To approach this aim, the Present study explored the personal journey of ten Israeli mental health survivors-turned-activists. The findings describe difficult and crushing encounters with the mental health system. Participants describe a process of continuous experiences of dehumanization and humiliation leading survivors to the understanding that the system will not meet their needs and wants, but rather that they must develop their own voice, conceptions, and ways of coping. This understanding stands as a basis for a new look at one’s need and wants, which is manifested as developing more efficient and autonomous ways of coping, including through as social activism. The findings and discussion stress the challenges facing the professional community to confront the harsh and disturbing testimonies provided by mental health Survivors, and call upon professionals, both practitioners and researchers, to search for ways to cooperate with these novel attempts at change.
