A radical mental health collective

Philly Icarus is a radical mental health collective for individuals labeled with a “mental disorder” or who consider themselves to have developmental differences and their allies. We believe in revolutionary change of the for-profit mental health industry. Our mission is to eradicate the stigma associated with “labels” and to have direct control over the decision-making process of our mental healthcare treatment tailored to meet our individual needs. Philly Icarus is an inclusive advocacy and support group.

  • Some of our members use traditional mental healthcare treatments such as pharmaceutical drugs and psychotherapy, but many of our members also explore alternative treatments such as, orthomolecular psychiatry, yoga, meditation, spirituality, and the body/mind connection.

  • Our goal is to create a supportive environment where people can feel less alienated, whether you are interested in a support group, want to start a project to explore the dangerous artistic gifts many of us posses or want to get involved in mental health advocacy.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

Philly Icarus meets 2nd & 4th Sundays at the A-Space, 4722 Baltimore Avenue on the SEPTA #34 green line surface trolley route. There is plenty of parking for bikes & cars on the south side of Baltimore Avenue between 47th & 48th Street. The A-Space is a collectively run anarchist community meeting space and gallery. Most events are free/we survive on donations.

ALL ARE WELCOME.
