More info about MF Journal:

MindFreedom Journal - first published in 1986 as Dendron -- is the award-winning print publication of MindFreedom International.

"Because of popular demand from MFI members and advice from other nonprofits, we are intending to publish these smaller issues of our journal, hopefully more frequently," said MFI director and journal editor David Oaks. "The focus in this issue is how members can become active in MFI Campaign Committees that emerged from MFI Action Conference."

If you'd like to volunteer to help publish the MF Journal contact the office.

Dorothy Dundas

While institutionalized for three years as an adolescent in the 1960's, MindFreedom member Dorothy Washburn Dundas was labeled a "schizophrenic" and forced to undergo 40 combined insulin coma-electroshock "treatments." Dorothy says, "I experienced and witnessed many atrocities. I believe that luck, determination, and my own anger and one compassionate advocate were my best friends on the road to my ultimate survival and freedom." Through a number of op-ed pieces, she has voiced her opposition to abusive psychiatric practices. Her poster, "Behind Locked Doors," which she created from her hospital records, is used in training programs. Dorothy lives in the Boston area where she has raised her four wonderful children. She founded and is the sole driver in her "safe, friendly and reliable" car service called The Crystal Lake Express.
