Should We Retire the Word 'Slum'? [citylab.com]
The concept of the slum emerged when industrial capitalism hit its stride in the late 19th century. Derived from Cockney street slang, the word was soon taken up by reformers and moralists of the Victorian period, a loaded descriptor of the densely populated and poorly serviced neighborhoods that housed workers, their families, and the reserve army of the unemployed. Plenty of people used the word “slum” with the best of intentions, but it is notable that very few have used it to describe...

The Books That Helped Me Transition from Trauma to Triumph: A Book Review Series - "The Power of Now"
The author takes us on a journey into a deep place within us, a place where the truth is known "within every cell of (our) body"; beyond the masks we wear, the criticisms we've cloaked ourselves in, our over-thinker personas, fueled by the old doubts we've absorbed into our beings.

Re: Mad Matters: A Critical Reader in Canadian Mad Studies by LeFrançois, et al. (2013)
Thank you, Chris for initiating a discussion about this very important topic. I have pre-ordered the book from Amazon and it should be released soon. The very system that was established to help people heal from trauma often times re-traumatizes consumers and becomes part of the problem rather than a solution. We have much to talk about here! Another book that we may want to add to our discussion group is Saving Normal by Allen Frances. Many important conversations about the nature of mental...

Re: Mad Matters: A Critical Reader in Canadian Mad Studies by LeFrançois, et al. (2013)
Yes, there are states/communities that claim to be trauma-informed but are not practicing it. They have documents up on their websites touting how trauma-informed they are and then when it comes down to a consumer’s experience they just retraumatize sufferers over and over again. There are no words for this great disappointment. And then people wonder why people with mental health challenges don’t seek treatment. The challenge with the trauma-informed movement is to change people’s hearts, a...

Re: Self Care Via Nutrition - An Anti-Antidepressant Approach
I agree that nutrition is important. I find that people don't drink enough water, and consume too much sugar and caffeine in drinks, and that only keeps the adrenal system activated as well as hosing the glucose/insulin system, already exacerbated by constant stress. It is however, the last place I go when dealing with traumatized people. I have discovered that if they start with a modality that releases the trauma, and teaches self-regulation, the self-regulation will spread to other areas...

Re: Saving Normal: An Insider's Revolt Against Out-of-Control Psychiatric Diagnosis, DSM-5, Big Pharma, and the Medicalization of Ordinary Life by Dr. Allen Frances (2013)
This is a really good book but if you don't want to bye it, you can hear a very good interview on a podcast (number 105) called "The Brain Science Podcast". Best of all the interview with Dr. Frances is free and it is very excellently done.

Re: License to Parent, a Move the World Documentary (2018) by George Siegel
I watched the film and I was disappointed, perhaps because my hopes were way too high. I long for universal parenting education and I hoped this film would help move us in that direction. My discouragement comes from the lens through which this seemed to be portrayed; that teens (and other irresponsible people) were having babies and not taking care of them properly. Statistics were not accurate. For example, I looked up the statistics on teen pregnancy and they are at the lowest rate since...

Review: Cracked Up illustrates the dynamics of post-traumatic stress disorder with pure artistry. It is a powerful voice for healing.
One of the most moving films I have seen in, well….years Cracked Up currently on Netflix, is a stunning and running commentary on what goes on in homes that we never find out about. Cracked Up tells the story of Darrell Hammond, one of Saturday Night Live’s favorite stars and the world within him that remained hidden under brilliance, talent and hurt. This courageous film illustrates, in a way that few films have so well achieved, the dynamics of post-traumatic stress disorder or how pain...

John Lewis on Love, Forgiveness, and the Seedbed of Personal Strength (brainpickings.org)
Once in a generation, if we are lucky, someone comes about who in every aspect of their being models for us how to do that, how to be that — how to place love at the center, the center that holds solid as all around it breaks, the solid place that becomes the fort of what is unbreakable in us and the fulcrum of change. Among those rare, miraculous few was John Lewis (February 21, 1940–July 17, 2020), who began his life by preaching to the chickens at his parents’ farm in southern Alabama and...
