Marches are more fun and powerful when banners show solidarity and a great sense of humour. Especially when they include Mad-Puns: “Madvocates move me”, “I am Mad about equality”, “Truly Madly Deeply”, “MadInfo makes you Madawesome”. Here is some inspiration from France ( lamadpride@gmail.com).

Mad Pride is more than meeting fabulous beautiful people, it is also about talent. Comedy, music, poetry, painting, jewelry, and comedy.

The music night brought us together in an intimate affair to discover remarkable talents. Performers covered everything from classic folk tunes to Adele to heartfelt original poetry to Alanis Morissette (who attended in spirit):

Jokes and madness go together like dogs and poker.

If you can’t laugh at mental illness, then you needed to attend the Mad Pride Comedy night. Our veteran, scintillating and dirty performers covered everything from relationships to hospitalizations; families to medications; and nut allergies to psychiatrists. There was a lot to learn and next year we might prepare a report (haha) to send to psychiatrists to diagnose their problems and advise them on how to improve.
