Monday I visited Maskine Maskine Amager in Copenhagen & I was blown away by the punk, stubborn recovery power of this place for / by people with SMI.

Er is veel animo voor Anti-Oedipus dus misschien is een herhaling over een tijdje best wel een goed idee! @joelkuiper.eu

Dit is ook best wel contra Minkowski met zijn 'Loss of Vital Contact with Reality' (VCR).

D&G citeren Wilhelm Reich:
'Kenmerkend voor de schizofrenie is juist de ervaring van dit vitale element... Wat hun levensgevoel betreft, verhouden de neuroot en de pervert zich tot de schizofreen zoals de schraperige middenstander tot de grote avonturier.'

De schizofreen heeft zeker niet een of andere schimmige voeling met het leven verloren, integendeel, hij bevindt zich zo dicht als maar kan bij het kloppende hart van de realiteit, op een intens punt dat met de productie van het reΓ«le samenvalt.

RD Laing heeft volledig gelijk als hij het schizoproces definieert als een initiatiereis, een transcendentale ervaring van verlies van het Ego, dat een subject laat zeggen: '.... Ik zag - nee, ik voelde veeleer dat ik een angstaanjagende reis voor de boeg had.'

Dorst van Esther Gerritsen lezen omdat haar Roxy zo goed was.

De neo-nostalgische soundtrack van Mufasa erbij: 'We call it Milele (paradisium), it's always there (you wish)'.

The abstract text. 

Title: The pearls and perils of friendship as method in the margins (FaMM) in social psychiatric research

Authors: Alke Wisselink, Gustaaf Bos, Lian van der Krieke and Richard Bruggeman.

Abstract text: β€˜Friendship as method’ (Tillmann-Healy, 2003) is a relatively unknown and unusual qualitative, ethnographic research approach, especially in academic psychiatry. Still, we drew on this inter-personal approach in prolonged encounter-based fieldwork, studying a) β€˜the good life’ of people with psychosis susceptibility, and b) the associated, often complex, communications and collaborations, in psychiatric and supportive housing contexts in The Netherlands. The researcher purposefully acted less like a β€˜regular’ researcher or a professional care worker, and more as a friend, aiming to account for the interlocutors’ isolated and marginalized positions. In line with a methodological paper we have written, we show on this poster the β€˜Pearls’ and β€˜Perils’ of approaching interlocutors in marginalized positions as a friend. And we present some lessons learned. This poster resonates with relevant ethical questions and concerns in qualitative research and (academic) psychiatry, such as reciprocity, intimacy and boundaries. We conclude that β€˜Friendship as Method in the Margins’ (FaMM) requires reflexivity, courage to experiment, boundary-work, and an open, safe space of team supervision.

Just submitted my abstract for poster presentation at the Euro Conference on Integrated Care and Assertive Outreach in Copenhagen, in June 2025.

Booked my train tickets; 10 hours landscape views of NL-DE-DEN, I look forward to that! #DoNotFLy

Hopefully by then I will celebrate the end of #PhdLife.

You also combine a PhD with having children, I take it? How is this for you? Now on Bluesky I AM procrastinating - let's (also) get to work ;-)

Haha, no, the children were playing and I intervened, and the 10 yo did not appreciate my intervention.

This morning, the 10-yo refused to go to school, after we quarreled about 'playing with a large screw driver'. Major emotional energy drain. It is hard to switch to writing. #PhdLife #Motherhood

Today we had a garden party for my birthday (and I also happen to be a woman) πŸŽ‚, and in the evening we watched 'The boy who harnassed the wind'. It is important to be aware of the possibility of scarcity (food, school), in our global northern sphere of often suffocating and decadent wealth.

A neon sign that reads Huppel the Pub

A neon sign that reads Huppel the Pub

A Dutch word for something (or more commonly someone) that you can’t think of the name of is huppeldepup! There is no word that I enjoy saying aloud more. HUPPELDEPUP!

There’s also a pub in The Hague that puns on the word huppeldepup…
