Hello, am really interested in getting together with other people who oppose forced psychiatry. Does anyone here know of any events or meetings where it is possible to do this. Thanks, Lisa

Hello, thanks a lot for those replys and that info. I have also found that there is a critical psychiatry conference at Nottingham University on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th of September so I'll hopefully go along there. There's info at criticalpsychiatry.co.uk, Lisa
