Worldwide Network of Users and Survivors of Psychiatry

The Worldwide Network of Users and Survivors of Psychiatry is a global community of individuals who have experienced mental health treatment, often critical of traditional psychiatric practices. It provides a platform for sharing experiences, advocating for human rights, and promoting alternatives to standard mental health care. The network aims to empower people, raise awareness about issues in psychiatry, and foster social change by giving voice to those who have been marginalized or harmed within the mental health system. It encourages dialogue, mutual support, and reform towards more respectful and humane approaches to mental well-being.
