I recently became involved with a project of Adelaide Uni that aims to "raise awareness around the disadvantage of overmedicalising distress and [to] advocate for a shift in mental health policy toward addressing the social, developmental, and environmental roots of mental distress, reducing reliance on medication-first approaches".

If you have experience of (avoiding or surviving) iatrogenic psychological disease, you may like to get involved.
