Socio-educational practices in health promotion as training tactics, sensitization and reflection on the management of primary care health professionals with patients in psychological distress and mental disorders. This is an "Experience Report" developed by the Social Service of the multidisciplinary team of the basic health unit, in the model of care of the family health strategy. It discusses the advocacy of the rights of people in psychic suffering and mental disorders and discusses the "taboos" in the initial reception and management of primary care professionals, thinking from the changes in the psychosocial care network in the light of the anti-asylum movement. The results show a resistance of professionals with a weakened bias towards the stigmatization of mental health demands and psychosocial management of these patients. This project reinforces the need for continuing education in primary care as a training and awareness strategy as a means of learning and professional qualification.
