Carey Lamprecht and Ashley McNamara are 2 members of a unique collective called The Icarus Project, a non-profit community based, support network, and underground media project created by and for people struggling with bipolar disorder and other dangerous gifts that are commonly labeled as mental illnesses. The Icarus Project aims to create non-authoritarian, non-hierarchical, non-professionally based peer-supportgroups for people with or without diagnoses, and help people organize outside of the psych wards for their own mental well-being.
