Anti-Recovery
A movement consisting of those who oppose what they perceive as recovery* from mental illness and/or neurodivergence.
This is typically due to two reasons: (1) Recovery from mental illness/neurodivergence is seen as submitting to internal ableism and admitting that mentally ill/neurodivergent people need to be "fixed," and (2) A general mistrust in the psychiatric and health care systems.
*Recovery in this context does not mean a cure, it simply means coping/living with your illness/neurotype in a positive way.

I had to block some people on Tumblr because all my positivity posts about mental illness were swarmed by anti-recovery weirdos telling me I'm a big psychiatry bootlicker.
