 +  * [[http://groupe-travail-analytique.org|Groupe de Travail Analytique]] "Le GTA, groupe de travail analytique, étudie les liens entre psychanalyse et numérique. Notre porte d'entrée vers ces questionnements a d'abord été les jeux vidéo. Nous avions donc décidé de le faire apparaître dans notre sigle: GTAJV. Le GTAJV s’intéresse désormais plus largement aux "nouvelles technologies de information et de la communication" en questionnant d'ailleurs la pertinence d'une tellle appellation, mais aussi aux rapports des humains à la machine. Enfin, la psychanalyse ne s'étant jamais enrichie seulement par elle-même, nous entrons en dialogue avec d'autres disciplines allant des sciences humaines et sociales à l'informatique."

 +  * [[http://theicarusproject.net|The Icarus Project]] "We are a support network and media project by and for people who experience the world in ways that are often diagnosed as mental illness. We envision a new culture that allows the space and freedom for exploring different states of being, and recognizes that breakdown can be the entrance to breakthrough. We aim to create a language that is so vast and rich that it expresses the infinite diversity of human experiences."

 +  * [[http://www.maps.org|MAPS - Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies]] "Founded in 1986, the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit research and educational organization that develops medical, legal, and cultural contexts for people to benefit from the careful uses of psychedelics and marijuana."

 +  * [[https://www.erowid.org|Erowid]] "Erowid is a member-supported organization providing access to reliable, non-judgmental information about psychoactive plants, chemicals, and related issues. We work with academic, medical, and experiential experts to develop and publish new resources, as well as to improve and increase access to already existing resources. We also strive to ensure that these resources are maintained and preserved as a historical record for the future."

 "A comprehensive guide to setting up and running compassionate care services for people having difficult drug experiences at music festivals and similar events. The Manual grew out of the work of its original creators at KosmiCare, the psychedelic care service at the iconic Boom Festival in Portugal. Whilst psychedelic care services have been in operation for decades, and have grown in number and in scope in the past few years, a general guide on how to establish and run them did not exist in the public domain, nor indeed—beyond training manuals for specific organisations—at all. We envisaged a work that would address all aspects of such a project, containing material to guide the care service leader, team leads and carer givers, and those fulfilling vital supporting roles (such as psychiatrists and nurses) through the entire gamut of preparation, training, logistics, operations, and the wrap-up of a care service.” "A comprehensive guide to setting up and running compassionate care services for people having difficult drug experiences at music festivals and similar events.

 "With proper preparation and understanding, it is possible to help a person having a difficult experience to receive the most benefit from it. Difficult psychedelic experiences can be frightening, but also among the most valuable experiences someone can have. Difficult psychedelic experiences can be the result of external factors, such as a chaotic environment or traumatic events, or the result of painful or troubling emotions that arise during the experience." "With proper preparation and understanding, it is possible to help a person having a difficult experience to receive the most benefit from it.

 +"The Icarus Project and Freedom Center's 52-page illustrated guide gathers the best information we've come across and the most valuable lessons we've learned about reducing and coming off psychiatric medication. Based in more than 10 years work in the peer support movement, this Guide is used internationally by individuals, families, professionals, and organizations, and is available a growing number of translations. Includes info on mood stabilizers, anti-psychotics, anti-depressants, anti-anxiety drugs, risks, benefits, wellness tools, psychiatric drug withdrawal, information for people staying on their medications, detailed Resource section, and much more. A 'harm reduction' approach means not being pro- or anti- medication, but supporting people where they are at to make their own decisions, balancing the risks and benefits involved. Written by Will Hall, with a 55-member health professional Advisory Board providing research assistance and more than 50 collaborators involved in developing and editing. The guide has photographs and art throughout, and a beautiful original cover painting by Jacks McNamara. Now in a revised and expanded Second Edition."

Line 33: Line 47:
 The word “crisis” comes from a root meaning “judgment.” A crisis is a moment of great tension and meeting the unknown. It’s a turning point when things can’t go on the way they have, and the situation isn’t going to hold. Could crisis be an opportunity for breakthrough, not just breakdown? Can we learn about each other and ourselves as a community through crisis? Can we see crisis as an opportunity to judge a situation and ourselves carefully, not just react with panic and confusion or turn things over to the authorities? The word “crisis” comes from a root meaning “judgment.” A crisis is a moment of great tension and meeting the unknown.
