Tinfoil Hats: Stories by Mad People in an Insane World


Tinfoil Hats: Stories by Mad People in an Insane World is a collection of true stories by neurodivergent people who identify as being Mad, about what it’s like to live Mad in a world that oppresses them because they think, live, and act differently. The authors come from all over the world, and from all walks of life. Tinfoil Hats is edited by Mad poet, artist, and scholar Phil Smith.

Intensely personal, sometimes funny, sometimes dark, these stories are always illuminating. They’re vibrantly shameful, horrifyingly scary, and just plain hard. They’re also joyful, spiritual, and enlivening. They describe in detail what it’s like to be Made Mad by a psy-complex that stigmatizes, psychiatrizes, and traumatizes. It’s unhinged writing, about whirleds unknown and unimagined by most.
