Out of Their Minds
Out of their Minds, is a new New Zealand based website exploring the value of mental distress, madness, ‘mental illness’, or whatever you want to call it.
New Zealanders often hear only about the negative aspects of ‘mental illness’, and the creators of this site want to change that. They say a lot of misunderstanding stems from people thinking of mental distress as primarily an illness, something that robs you of something and makes you less complete than everyone else. What is this site about? Outoftheirminds.co.nz aims to explore views on madness, mental distress or ‘mental illness’ that are often ignored by mainstream media. The site features artists and thinkers interviewing themselves about the value they see in their experiences of mental distress, and about what comes out of their minds. |

Most people feel miserable now and then, often when something upsetting or stressful is happening such as a relationship break-up, or losing a job. Feeling down in response to difficult situations is pretty normal, and usually the feelings fade over time and you get on with life. But when the feelings of unhappiness are intense and persistent - and they don’t go away even when things improve - this could be depression. The medical term for this is ‘major depressive disorder’.
This website is part of the NZ national depression awareness campaign. |
