Those of us living with depression, trauma, and related experiences resulting from the erosion of the bodymind under neoliberalism consequently feel out of place in optimism-oriented educational settings. But unwellness can also be a resource to understand the effects of harmful structures on our bodyminds. It can be a site at which we can generate critical knowledge about the institution and thereby forge relations that help us survive in it. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Feminist German Studies is the property of University of Nebraska Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
