This seems organized around the work of the radical psychiatrist RD Laing. I've admired some of writing in the past, but his theories of psychosis are considered nonsense these days. From the website:

“Legacy of R.D. Laing,” Michael Guy Thompson, on Madness Radio. Is psychosis a journey and a breakthrough to somewhere more authentic? Scottish psychiatrist R.D. Laing was a fierce critic of the mental health system, and saw madness as a rational adaptation to irrational family and social constraints. How are Laing’s provocative insights about politics and culture still relevant today?

I became homeless due to the depressive phase of bipolar disorder and alcoholism. I did a 180 and now live a happy and productive life thanks to HVRP (Homeless Veterans Rehabilitation Program), which is similar in ways to this program. I'm sharing this for any veterans reading this that need help. Please contact the VA and receive the help you earned. There are people who want to help you.
