A Disorder for Everyone! - The Online Festival 2023

In September of 2020 two and a half thousand people from over 18 different countries registered for the A Disorder for Everyone Online Festival. In September 2021 and 2022 much the same happened and the feedback we recieved in the weeks & months that followed each festival was overwhelmingly positive and encouraging - it was just more evidence that the appetite for this discussion is growing exponentially.

Too many people have simply had enough of people’s stories and experiences being negated and dismissed by scientifically questionable labels. They want change, and they want to be part of a movement that is demanding change.

On 22nd September 2023 the festival returns for the 4th time!

We are in assocation with PCCS BOOKS and as usual supported by onlinevents.com

You can expect the usual dynamic, change-making energy, passion and wisdom from every one of them. They are all people who challenge the mainstream medicalised paradigm of emotional distress that labels and pathologises people’s suffering on a daily basis.
