Thank you very much for your comments Bradford. MHE is a European membership-based organization. There is no connection to Mental Health America and we do not accept any funding from pharma.
Concerning the use of terminology, many thanks for your comments. We generally use “medication”, although we are well aware of the overuse and many terrible side-effects of medicines/drugs. But there are also many persons who find their medication helpful and at least in Europe the word “drug” would have a bit of a negative connotation.
But I definitely take your points and we will continue to discuss around terminology within MHE!
Thank you also for your remark in relation to the DSM-5.
