Day one of the conference is complete!! There are so many influential people in this conference and it is quite remarkable to be here with everyone. There was one specific interviewer that I felt I understood the best and also related to very well. Jolijn Santegoeds, the Co-Chair of the World Network of Users and Survivors of psychiatry, touched upon forced treatments in the Netherlands. I know through my studies within. Our courses that there is still countries that are not as progressive, but hearing about it and reading through her own difficulties it makes me realize how much of an issue this still is throughout the world. With there still being a wrong explanation as to what are human rights and what I means in regard to mental healthcare, there creates a grey area as how to handle situations with mental health care. Due to this grey area they just use one source to “fix the problem” which is not the solution. The question here is what if patients don’t have an insights of their own problems, and what if forced treatments are necessary, how do we cope with these individuals. Through the social psychology approach we know how every reaction has a reason due to social dynamics within the interaction. Joljin pointed out that there are more options between doing nothing and forced treatments. He professional individual working with an individual with a mental disability could feel uncomfortable and for most of us when we are in uncomfortable situations we feel defensive. The key is to have the right person to bring peace to the situation. So If there is a lack of understanding, there should be a social worker who has a good relationship with inidividuals who provides them with the comfort they need to create an understanding of situations creating peace. I thought Joljin was brilliant and her explanations were clear and exact, I am very interested in her studies and her experience with her organization
