Re: Good News Channel

I find this good news. Not enduring psychosis, but that awareness and more help is available than in previous times when superstition was more the norm ....

I guess we need to be able to enjoy nuanced good news ... not everything ... all good like a small child on christmas morning.

These days I suspect psychosis has a lot to do with extra difficult transitions in life journeys ... for a host of reasons particular to the individual ... rather than a simple gene that renders someone defective.... thank god we have moved on from that notion ... as it haunted me for 30 years ... "its genetic ... end of story... and person is damned.

This is still tru:

"It made me realise that getting appropriate, timely care in our mental health system is sadly an absolute lottery that is driven by your background, postcode and bank balance."

better than ye old days ... of Lunatick Asylums tho.

Hey @frog

Have not "spoken" to you in a while. Hope things settle a little. I really appreciate you starting this thread, and each time I read good news I am bursting to want to post here, but I do not want to take over. Please let us know how you are.

Change is slow

The ABC has a general 'Good News' page that captures all of the stories it considers to be 'Good News':
