Finding the accuracy of some of these very true, some very biased/inaccurate
Useful to help people without conditions to understand the suffering... but wonder to what extent some perpetuate stigma; increase helplessness; play to stereotypes (?)
Perhaps the intensity of the depiction can help an affected person feel their pain is more truly/thoroughly represented (?)
Bleak/defeated representations
Person is fully captured by these conditions
Images don't offer any hope
What do you think of these images Plenum?
