Infantilization Is an Important Part ofTreatment

Ever noticed how mental health workers infantilize adults?

It’s not just manipulation or drug pushing. Over time they quietly erode a person’s sense of self and start positioning themselves as the authority over their life and choices.

Idk if this is the same in every country, however In the Netherlands it gets absurd. Grown adults are told to work with coloring worksheets and color coded charts. Some mental health institutions are literally painted in a way that look like elementary schools.
