We must rid our imaginations of artificial hierarchies. ...

Retaining agency is not resistance to treatment…it is in fact a sign of health

The catch - 22 I thought about the other day: The mental health system tells clients/patients/consumers that they need better boundaries while expecting them to ignore their boundaries.
