About
There is a summary of each of my slideshows along with every home button. This describes the subject you'll see. I spent my years from age 23 to 40 as a 'revolving door' patient in the old National Health Service asylums in the UK. Strangely for me, who's never even been a higher rate tax payer, let alone has no private health insurance or pension, and doesn't own a home, I have Mrs Thatcher to thank for closing down that pernicious mental hospital regime. Is the stigma and discrimination against mental health in the media abating? It's good if it is. Narrative itself is a powerful therapeutic and cathartic tool. Best wishes, Andrew.
