My Illustrated Mind

Madzine Research

A journey through Kathryn's 'illustrated mind' & intro to her illustrated card deck - a prompt  for honest conversations about feelings.

This session will take us on an illustrated journey through Kathryn’s personal experiences of mental health issues, including those diagnosed as borderline or emotionally unstable personality disorder. Autobiographical illustration will be used to reveal insights into the dynamics and progression of internal power struggles, and to shed a light on the process of emotional healing. Kathryn will also reveal how she has built on this work to develop ‘my illustrated mind: cards for honest conversations about feelings’, which is an illustrated card deck about feelings for use by people with lived experience of mental health issues and health professionals. It is hoped that these cards will help people feel less alone with difficult feelings, help open up honest conversations about feelings and highlight the power of art borne from lived experience in helping to improve our understanding of mental health issues. There will be time in the workshop for an exploration of the relevance of Kathryn&#x27;s work to our own lives and work situations.This event is being organised by <a href="http://ccramhp.org.uk" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Critical and Creative Approaches to Mental Health Practice</a> (CCrAMHP) in Lancaster, in association with the <a href="http://madzines.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">MadZines</a> research project and <a href="http://asylummagazine.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Asylum magazine</a>.
