DESCRIPTION:From a lonely story in the SF Bay Guardian to a blossoming international 
 network, The Icarus Project has touched the lives of thousands of people 
 with its powerful metaphors and radical message and is helping to redefine 
 social conceptions of "mental illness" for a generation raised on Prozac 
 and "Oppositional Defiant Disorder."\n\nCome celebrate our Mad Community 
 with a bunch of the founders and behind the scenes movers and shakers that 
 make the Icarus Project happen. Come share your own story of Icarus and 
 radical mental health, hear tales from our recent adventures, and dream 
 about the next five years to come.\n\nThe Icarus Project is creating a new 
 culture and language that resonates with our actual experiences of madness 
 and “mental illness,” rather than trying to fit our lives into a 
 conventional framework.\n\nWe are a website community, support network of 
 local groups, and media project created by and for people struggling with 
 bipolar disorder and other dangerous gifts commonly labeled as "mental 
 illnesses." We believe that when we learn to take care of ourselves, the 
 intertwined threads of madness and creativity can be tools of inspiration 
 and hope in a repressed and damaged world. Our goal is to help people like 
 ourselves feel less alienated, and to allow us—both as individuals and as 
 a community—to tap into the true potential that lies between brilliance 
 and madness.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2007/11/11/18460114.php
