The social production of mental illness

Friday, 8 November 2019 - 10:00am to 10:30am

Jacques and Jennifer have a conversation about mental illness, particularly those generated by and within current social circumstances. Some of the misguided notions about causes and remedies are explored, with a focus on one man's journey.
