Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selected Mental Health Films: A Guide for Persons Responsible for Planning and Conducting Mental Health Education Programs in the Community or in Specialized Educational Settings Since its inception the National Institute of Mental Health has had a commitment to study and to support research into the causes of mental illness and to assist in the discovery of promising treatment and preventive approaches. Along with this commitment has come the need of making research findings widely available through programs and services. This vital goal can only be realized through ever-increasing understanding and support by the general public. Those persons engaged in educating the public about mental illness and mental health need to have at their command the best of the available educational aids. This guide to selected mental health films can be one important tool in fulfilling this need. Many of these films distill and report important research; others are powerful statements of human needs and programs. We hope that this guide will prove useful in mental health education programs.

Download or read book Mental Disorders in Popular Film written by Erin Heath and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-02-28 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Hollywood films commonly use mental disorders as a magnifier by which social, political, or economic problems become enlarged in order to critique societal conditions. Cinema has a long history of amplifying human emotion or experience for dramatic effect. The heightened representations of people with mental disorder often elide one category of literal truths for the benefit of different moral or emotional reasons. With films like Fight Club, The Silence of the Lambs, The Dark Knight, and Black Swan, this book address characters identified by film or media as people who are crazy, mentally ill, developmentally delayed, insane, have autism spectrum disorder, associative personality disorder, or who have other mental disorders. Despite the vast array of differences in people’s experiences, film often marginalizes people with mental disorders in ways that make it important to be inclusive of these varied experiences. These characters also commonly become subject to the structures of hierarchy and control that actual people with mental disorders encounter. Cinematic patterns of control and oppression heavily influence the narratives of those considered crazy by the outside world.

Download or read book Our Favorite Movies written by Anne Feustel and published by Positively Powered. This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know that watching certain movies can improve your mental health? Research has shown that movies with positive messages can make us stronger, better, kinder, and more empathetic people. They can heal us, uplift us, and allow us a safe way to work through our struggles. In addition, watching movies with loved ones can foster a deep emotional connection. Author Anne Feustel first discovered watching movies as a coping skill when she saw a childhood favorite, The Princess Bride, while experiencing a manic episode. Happily, she was transported to a magical realm, a place where her mania could not follow. It became her go-to movie when she was struggling with mania, depression, or anxiety. Later, Anne realized that viewing specific movies had eased her emotional struggles since she was a child, especially when she watched them with her sister. Along with sharing her mental health journey, Anne explores the history of cinematherapy as a tool to create healthy coping skills and sustain personal growth. Inclusion and equality are important criteria for the movies that Anne chose. Many films did not make the cut because of issues such as racism, sexism, fatphobia, homophobia, and extreme violence. For each of the 12 movies reviewed in the book, Anne details how they can affect our mental health. She also adds caveats (aspects viewers might object to), triggers (scenes that might cause viewers to relive a traumatic event), and fun facts. The movies include Inside Out, When Harry Met Sally..., and The Princess Bride. So, film fans, it's time to dive deep into your favorite movies!
Download or read book Mental Illness in Popular Media written by Lawrence C. Rubin and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether in movies, cartoons, commercials, or even fast food marketing, psychology and mental illness remain pervasive in popular culture. In this collection of new essays, scholars from a range of fields explore representations of mental illness and disabilities across various media of popular culture. Contributors address how forms of psychiatric disorder have been addressed in film, on stage, and in literature, how popular culture genres are utilized to communicate often confusing and conflicted relationships with the mentally ill, and how popular cultures around the world reflect mental illness and disability. Analyses of sources as disparate as the Batman films, Broadway musicals and Nigerian home movies reveal how definitions of mental illness, mental health, and of psychology itself intersect with discourses on race, gender, law, capitalism, and globalization.
