The first time I encountered the de facto policy that DMH employees don't respond to emails, was on Halloween 2024. I wrote an email to the "Human Rights Officer" [LW] at Corrigan asking whether I could help by bringing a fresh eye to the facility's outdoors policy. I received zero reply. I have reprinted my email below. It refers to the CMR (Mass. code of regulations). So let's first get oriented to that. That Halloween email is quoted below. In that email, I quote some from the

This is a 2nd podcast about the IPU (inpatient unit) at Corrigan Mental Health Center. There are many other things going on at Corrigan MHC besides the IPU. For example, there is a great program for helping families in which there is a young person who may be experiences the early stages of psychosis. The people there are excellent. This podcast is only about the IPU. In brief, the IPU itself is a valuable entity for the community. If you did not consider the taxpayer perspective, there would

Corrigan IPU patients deserve a real, substantive right to access the outdoors. It is gross really to see the Corrigan IPU patients staying inside day after day, week after week, and in some cases month after month. And it is still more alarming when Corrigan staff blithely and complacently point to the four times a day when a minority subset of patients (youthful patients) can go outside. (Roughly 25% to 50% of patients [depending on the patients on unit at a particular time) can access the

The IPU at Corrigan Mental Health Center. This is a psychiatric IPU in Fall River, MA. It's a DMH facility. Best parts: 1) there are some excellent staff members (excellent both for patients and for co-workers), (e.g., OT Kyle, providers Max and Allison, nurses Christian and Jill, tech Sean, Social Worker Nicole). 2) As a public-sector, unionized shop, the staff can be their authentic selves. For those who don't like their jobs, they can express that openly. They are not pressured to

Alenka Zupančič. Disavowal

2024/12/11

Alenka Zupančič Disavowal This book argues that the psychoanalytic concept of disavowal best renders the structure underlying our contemporary social response to traumatic and disturbing events, from climate change to unsettling tectonic shifts in our social tissue. Unlike denialism and negation, disavowal functions by fully acknowledging what we disavow. Zupancic contends that disavowal, which sustains some belief by means of ardently proclaiming the knowledge of the opposite, is becoming a

Maria Balaska. Anxiety and wonder: On being human Description At times, we find ourselves unexpectedly immersed in a mood that lacks any clear object or identifiable cause. These uncanny moments tend to be hastily dismissed as inconsequential, left without explanation. Maria Balaska examines two such cases: wonder and anxiety – what it means to prepare for them, what life may look like after experiencing them, and what insights we can take from those experiences. For Kierkegaard anxiety is a door

Holland centers ethical commitments over ontological concerns to spotlight those moments when Black people ethically relate with animals.

And with white people increasingly seeing themselves as distinctly racialized (not simply as American or human), white writers are exposing a self-awareness of white racialized behavior—from staunch antiracism to virulent forms of xenophobic nationalism.

Forty years later, Gilligan returns to the subject matter of her classic book, re-examining its central arguments and concerns from the vantage point of

Although his body of work has long been considered disjointed and random, William Egginton claims that Jodorowsky's writings, theatre work and mime, and his films, along with the therapeutic practice he calls psychomagic, can all be tied

Lauren Levine Risking Intimacy and Creative Transformation in Psychoanalysis Note: I had planned to interview Dr. Levine about her book. Leading up to the date we had agreed on, I was struggling with what to talk to her about. Timothy Williamson notes the gladitorial or adversarial nature of philosophical discussion. I certainly had some critical commentary on Dr. Levine's book, but I also prefer to be reparative, as opposed to carpy-suspicious, as a reader (Sedgwick). And it was my sense that
