The U.S.A. had a strong hand in defeating the Third Reich... But while Germany profoundly learned the lessons of that experiment in Fascism, the U.S. persisted and persists not only in imperialistic hyper-militarization, but in the Eugenic dehumanization of groups such as the mentally ill!
   We, America's mentally ill, are treated not just as 2nd class citizens but as dangerous sub-humans to be subdued with toxic 'treatments' and at times Mengelaian 'therapies.'  We are, to sum the matter up concisely if starkly, to modern America as the Jew was to Nazi Germany:  objects of bureaucratic oppression and demagogic disdain whose survival and reproduction are not desired!

I have suffered mental illness to various degrees most of my life and as an adult it really has been quite hurtfull at times in the way society here in the uk views people like myself. We in the uk too have series issues around making sure people with mentall illness have basic human rights. This is a subject close to my heart. the uk goverment are about to put a lot of money into the issue. They have said.

I feel the answer to ensure the basic human rights of people diagnosed with mental illness is to make sure the subject is led by open forum management were every voice is heard.

I want to try and write more about this subject. I think this week I will try and work on an essay type piece of writing to explain my ideas on open forum management within mental health in the uk. I feel really that because the uk is quite a small unification of nations that progress with human rights in mind is maybe more achievable here in the uk. But if we can get mental health in the uk more into a human led health service then maybe we can inspire other nations to follow.

Is a very sensitive difficult subject. My love care and hope goes out to you my friend. You are not alone.
