Icarus Project
The Icarus Project is a media and activist endeavor that is part of a larger consumer/survivor/ex-patient mental health movement characterized by the view that many phenomena commonly labeled as mental illness should actually be regarded as "dangerous gifts". The name is derived from Icarus, a hero in Greek mythology, and is metaphorically used to convey that these experiences can lead to "potential() flying dangerously close to the sun." 〔theicarusproject (organizational/origins-and-purpose )〕
==History==
In 2002, Sascha Altman DuBrul wrote "Bipolar World", an article published in the ''San Francisco Bay Guardian'', relating to his personal experiences being diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Among the dozens of e-mails and other correspondence that he received after this publication was a letter from Ashley (now known as Jacks) McNamara, an artist and writer who identified strongly with his experiences.〔 DuBrul and McNamara corresponded for a few weeks before finally meeting in person and deciding to start The Icarus Project with Bonfire Madigan Shive.
The first step, they decided, was creating a website where people who identified with "bipolar and other 'mental illness' () find real community and contribute to it."〔(News feature ), ''East Bay Express'', 3 August 2005.〕
