Our cause is for the Human Rights of those who have been given or forced with a Mental Health label that wasn't invited by the individual him/herself.
Currently there is an epidemic of those who are deemed incompetent by a medical health professional and then in turn, said individuals who are deemed incompetent are then forced or coerced into incarceration and forced or coerced to take pharmaceutical drugs unwillingly, among other abhorrent practices that said individuals are forced into without their expressed consent.
The key here is that said individuals whom are given such mental health labels such as schizophrenia, bi-polar manic depression, depression, anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity etc. have generally never committed a crime that is triable in a court of law, and yet they are stripped, incarcerated and drugged without their consent and with no legal recourse.
These mental health practices: force, violence and coercion in what is supposed to be Mental Health Care are by definition Human Rights Violations and by signing this petition, one agrees that these abhorrent practices need to stop.
With the cease of these practices we acknowledge the need to create alternatives for those with mental health concerns to help, heal and flourish without force, violence or coercion.
