PEMHI People Experiencing Mental Health Illnesses deserve the same innate rights

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

PEMHI should experience the same innate rights as any other individual.
PEMHI are people who have undergone trauma.
As such it's their right to determine their own medical care.
PEMHI who have undergone enough trauma to be 'sectioned' deserve the upmost care and attention
Sectioning as it currently exists is vile and wrong.

A PEMHI should experience the same innate rights as any other individual.
Understanding shows us that PEMHI are people who have undergone trauma.
People should be free at all points in time to chose the medical care they desire.
People who have experienced enough trauma to be deemed 'in need of sectioning' instead deserve the upmost care and attention. Which sectioning as it exists, is not. Nor is it what we all know it means to be free
