Eu hoje fiz um samba bem pra frente
Dizendo realmente o que é que eu acho
Eu acho que o meu samba é uma corrente
E coerentemente assino embaixo
Hoje é preciso refletir um pouco
E ver que o samba está tomando jeito
Só mesmo embriagado ou muito louco
Pra contestar e pra botar defeito
Precisa ser muito sincero e claro
Pra confessar que andei sambando errado
Talvez precise até tomar na cara
Pra ver que o samba está bem melhorado
Tem mais é que ser bem cara de tacho
Não ver a multidão sambar contente
Isso me deixa triste e cabisbaixo
Por isso eu fiz um samba bem pra frente
Dizendo realmente o que é que eu acho
Eu acho que o meu samba é uma corrente
Chico Buarque
These are both of my Jeeps. The green Jeep is only used in summer as the salt around here will kill a vehicle fast. The red Jeep has a snowplow for the winter and I use it for towing my utility trailer in the summer and when four people need to go somewhere.

The history of Western psychiatry is replete with mistakes as well as successes. Currently, high-income countries desperately need reforms to enhance the effectiveness, efficiency and availability of behavioral health care (relating to mental functioning and substance use). Meanwhile, developing behavioral health systems in low- and middle-income countries presents major challenges to policy makers. Unmet behavioral health needs and burdens are enormous, but as change occurs, there is the danger that Western mistakes will be repeated.
We need to review bio-psycho-social understandings and see how these may be implemented most effectively in the context of diverse cultures, beliefs and values. Innovations in service delivery, taking advantage of upcoming and adapted technologies, offer opportunities which should be assessed in ways appropriate to those different contexts. We also need to explore how patients’ interests, rights and preferences may be best elicited, protected and acted upon, consistent with institutional and legal norms informed by health care delivery science. Both aspects are key to determining how health systems’ capacity can be built most economically and effectively, and how ‘patients’ can be ‘agents’ in their own behavioral health care.
