National Alliance on Mental Illness - NAMI

NAMI develops programs for communities across the country. There are support groups for people with a mental illness and also for families. These groups meet one or two times a month. One of these Family groups saved me when my son, who has a diagnosis of bipolar disorder was psychotic. I later took a course called Family to Family which met 1x a week for 12 weeks. In it I learned a lot about mental illness, coping strategies and understanding. Treatment works! I am happy to report that after 5 years of struggle, my son is happy, and is working part time. Something which we thought he might not be able to do. I credit NAMI with giving me the tools to re-establish a relationship with my son.

Stop sending my mother newsletters NAMI ! NAMI is essentially sponsored by drug companies It takes a lot of nerve to call your organization a patients’ advocacy group when half to two-thirds of your funding comes from companies that are constantly facing class action lawsuits, federal lawsuits or both for not disclosing adverse findings in clinical trials, lying about known health risks, directly causing death and chemical injury and illegally marketing their most powerful and unpredictable drugs off label to children. NAMI could hardly be more blatant in aligning their methods with the commercial interests of these companies. NAMI PUSHES DRUGS ON CHILDREN.
