See Spring’s work engages with many topics that can be difficult to read or hear about, including mental health distress, mental health treatment, self harm, suicide, detention, seclusion, restraints, violence, policing, and discrimination. These may bring up past negative experiences or memories with the healthcare system, police, or experiences of oppression.
