It was realized that not only did the general public express mentalist ideas, so did ex-patients, a form of internalized oppression. People began to recognize a pattern in how they were treated, a set of assumptions which most people seemed to hold about mental (ex)patients regardless of whether they applied to any particular individual at any particular time – that they were incompetent, unable to do things for themselves, constantly in need of supervision and assistance, unpredictable, likely to be violent or irrational etc. The term became more widely known when she used it in 1978 in her book On Our Own: Patient Controlled Alternatives to the Mental Health System, which for some time became the standard text of the psychiatric survivor movement in the US. In 1975 Judi Chamberlain coined the term mentalism in a book chapter of Women Look at Psychiatry. "Mentalism" was coined by Judi Chamberlin. Mentalism tends to be referred as mental disability, distinguishing itself from ableism, which refers to physical disability. In academia evidence of this movement can be found in the number of recent publications about sanism and social work practice. The movement of sanism is an act of resistance among those who identify as mad, consumer survivors, and mental health advocates. While mentalism and sanism are used interchangeably, sanism is becoming predominant in certain circles, such as academics, those who identify as mad and mad advocates and in a socio-political context where sanism is gaining ground as a movement. The terms mentalism, from " mental", and sanism, from " sane", have become established in some contexts, though concepts such as social stigma, and in some cases ableism, may be used in similar but not identical ways. The negative attitudes involved may also be internalized. Mentalism impacts how individuals are treated by the general public, by mental health professionals, and by institutions, including the legal system. These judgments are followed by actions such as blatant, overt discrimination which may include refusal of service, or the denial of human rights. It is characterized by judgments of another person's perceived mental health status. It can result in covert discrimination by multiple, small insults and indignities. Like other forms of discrimination such as sexism and racism, mentalism involves multiple intersecting forms of oppression, complex social inequalities and imbalances of power. The discrimination is based on numerous factors such as stereotypes about neurodivergence, for example autism, learning disorders, ADHD, FASD, bipolar, schizophrenia, and personality disorders, specific behavioral phenomena such as stuttering and tics, or intellectual disability. This discrimination may or may not be characterized in terms of mental disorder or cognitive impairment. Practicality is no longer an issue.Mentalism or sanism describes discrimination and oppression against a mental trait or condition a person has, or is judged to have.
