Those who use the term 'service user' for patients with mental illness in India

...as if everyone with mental illness in India are consumers of the Government Electricity Department.

As if *state-of-the-art services* are being provided to all the people with mental illness in India.

The academics, others... who use such terminologies for patients with mental illness in India ...where have these people wandered from ?

So much of ennui.

Really…

That one has to copy terminologies from across the seas like 'service-users'

An isolation technique to take advantage of those really vulnerable with serious mental illness.

Keep them in a state of conflict…suspended animation…hostility.

Wonder if these academics, others... did any study on the banded kraits in Asia in their habitat .

Since they are pretty quiet on employment done piecemeal for persons with mental illness in the Rights of Persons Disabilities Bill 2014 tabled in parliament in India

Also very, very silent on the high risks of violence in people with untreated serious mental illness, mental illness with substance abuse...

No warmth. No caring. These academics, others...who are so poikilothermal ...the *poikilothermic homo sapiens* of the 21st century.
