One of our friends was harassed and raped by her psychiatrist. We want to know if there are more people who are abused by him or if there are others like him in the industry.
When survivors come together, things can be fought better.
We are a collective of lawyers, academics, social workers, and entrepreneurs who have decided to understand and expose the reality of #Metoo in the domain of mental health.
If you are someone who has faced sexual abuse, unwelcome touching, Gaslighting, sexual harassment, rape, assault or any act which created an unsafe environment in the mental health domain in India (as a patient, therapist, or student etc), please use this Google Form to register your experiences.
The link to the form is here: https://forms.gle/ wYkQJEf19Lo36BAx6
You can stay anonymous and you decide what happens to your testimony. The content of this survey won't become public without consent and thoughtful action.
This is not a Name and Shame exercise but an attempt to find ways to take tangible action against such abuse in the domain.
It is also not to discourage the initiatives towards de-stigmatizing mental health issues,infact, quite contrary it is to address the weaknesses and hold systems accountable to make things better.
For questions related to this form, check out this document - https://docs.google.com/ document/d/ 1AZwzpj0i7se06pNBrGPUU18uuhlze iZXgxOLxl5DYno/edit or you can email me directly.
Please share it among your circles and help us generate a solid evidence. Thanks so much!
