Voyce Hendrix is the guest speaker in this Rethinking Psychiatry program. It also includes some of the original residents. 

 

Soteria House - Voyce Hendrix video (1 hour, 52 minutes)

 

A few weeks ago, Mad in America published an article about this program:

 

Original Soteria House Members to Speak!

 

Quote

 

Soteria House was a groundbreaking model that began in 1971 in San Jose, CA, in Santa Clara County. It was named after the Greek goddess or spirit of safety, salvation, deliverance, and preservation from harm. The home was for young adults who met the DSM criteria for “schizophrenia.”

The idea of Soteria house was that of “being with” people as they went through extreme states. . . ..

Thank you Shep. 

 

I'm about 1/2 through Voyce Hendrix(cousin of Jimmy Jimi, no less).  My gosh, it's historical and so great. 

So glad Soteria got written up in journals, and is there forever now!

 

And how peculiarly timely for me. 

 

Timely for us all, I expect.

Late 2023- gone to emeritus status, inactive, don't @ me, I can check who I've posted on, and I'm not really here like I used to be......thanks.

Started with psycho meds/psychiatric care circa 1988.  In retrospect, and on contemplation, situational overwhelm.

Rounding up to 30 years of medications(30 medication trials, poly-pharmacy maximum was 3 at one time).

5/28/2015-off Adderal salts 2.5mg. (I had been on that since hospital 10/2014)

12/2015---just holding, holding, holding, with trileptal/oxcarb at 75 mg. 1/2 tab at hs.  My last psycho med ever!  Tapered @ 10% every 4 weeks, sometimes 2 weeks to

2016 Dec 16 medication free!!

Longer signature post here, with current supplements.

Herb and alcohol free since 5/15/2016.  And.....I quit smoking 11/2021. Lapsed.  Redo of quit smoking 9/28/2022.  Can you say Hallelujah?(took me long enough)💜

None of my posts are intended as medical advice.  Please discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical provider.  My success story:  Blue skies ahead, clear sailing

Check out my first post again, MMT - your post reminded me of two more resources - the Soteria book and Will Hall's podcast with Voyce Hendrix. I just added those resources to that first post.

 

Yep, Voyce Hendrix, cousin of Jimmy, no less! B)
