It's so true. I once visited a psych ward where there were no windows and no outside area so patients would stay months and never see the sun or the sky. A lady had been there six months and never met her doctor, another was an elderly woman that needed to use the restroom at night but couldn't sit up so they routinely just let her sleep in her own piss and feces. It's a huge problem in our country and I wish more people were willing to talk about it.

@@joycedunnell3182 There's a long answer to that question, but I'll give you the short one. Yes, they still have short term and long term psych wards. The long term wards used to be huge and stuffed full of people society didn't want: schizophrenics, developmentally delayed people, severely autistic people, people with remarkably low IQs all the kinds of "not normal" that scared ordinary citizens. But those were closed down for the most part, and the patients integrated into the community. But there is still a place for short term facilities. Pills don't instantly fix things like suicidal depression and manic episodes and paranoid delusions. So there are short term wards for that, usually a 28 day stay clears things up. Long term wards are more questionable. That's a big long discussion I won't get into. But I don't think we will ever stop needing short term wards.

07:00 Mac did it for the homies. It's symbolized when he can finally escape easily and sees the blood on the nurse coming out of Billies room. Mac did not hesitate to check out his homie before escaping. Also it seemed to show how he has developed as a person, setting his own priorities aside for someone he used to regard as just a crazy person and actually committing to the hard work instead of the easy way out. That's how I saw that scene at least.

Speaking of “popping a pill” to solve problems, I was actually in a mental ward a couple of times (depression). After seeing the movie version of this book, I kind of realized that it felt the same. The psychiatrist at the hospital I stayed in didn’t seem to care about us actually feeling better. He just prescribed pills until one made us at least be able to fake being better (in fact, I remember the first time I went I thought I was fine, but realized it was because I didn’t know how to use what I learned in the hospital in the outside world, and just eventually spiraled back down again. Not to mention the medication he prescribed to me wasn’t supposed to be taken by people in my age group at the time. My actual psychiatrist freaked out about it and was scared I became addicted to it). When you learn about how psychological disorders used to be treated, you kind of realize it hasn’t changed much :/

I think the point he was trying to make was; it's so easy to diagnose people who actually have nothing wrong with them to get them to "shut up" these days. There are so many people who need help mentally to function day to day, but there's a lot of kids being diagnosed with ADHD and OCD when they're simply hyperactive and just being kids. Hope everything's working out for you, pills or no pills, keep doing what works best for you to keep you here
@taitaisanchez
@taitaisanchez 7 жыл бұрын
Sometimes that's true, and that certainly complicates issues, but the truth of the matter is that there's serious problems if there's an issue and it's NOT corrected in childhood. Which is something I found out the extremely hard way. I'm not sure if I'm boiling over with social anxiety and poor social skills or if I have legit autism and the thing that bothers me the most is the fact that I even have this question to deal with. There were clear signs when I was a kid that the way I retained knowledge and focused clearly showed that there were neuroatypical things going on. But as an adult, I can't rely on that as a strong diagnostic criteria. Shit's really complicated. Reenforcing this ever present attitude that's permeated a lot of our culture concerning mental health that pills are terrible and there's nothing wrong with a lot of people and a lot of people just need to get over themselves hurts. Because as we learn more and more about the brain and psychology, it becomes harder and harder to justify that attitude. While at the same time we see that there are also risks and costs to misdiagnosis and overdiagnosis. It's hard to tell people this and have it not sound completely insane.

New DSM didn't add ODD. In 1980, ODD was defined. ODD isn't largely defined as not blindly following authority. ODD is largely defined by being asked to do something reasonable, like take a seat for class and in response shitting on the desk and smearing it on the walls.

I really enjoyed this episode on 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' it's a very good analysis. However, I believe something crucial you forgot to point out is that "Chief" Bromden is in the psychiatric hospital for a reason. When we read his point of view we come to understand Chief Bromden suffers from paranoid schizophrenia and we sometimes read him hallucinating. He believes society is controlled by a large, mechanized system which he calls "The Combine." This makes him a very unreliable narrator. Just like Chief Bromden we can't know for sure if the things he sees and experiences are real. I do believe nurse Ratched ruled the ward with an iron fist, however Chief Bromden believes nurse Ratched to be an agent of "The Combine" and demonizes her probably a lot.

I understand that these sorts of institutions are super-problematic, one of my significant issues with One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is that there are people with genuine, severe mental disorders which can't simply be treated by being taken out and told they're free and can do what they want. Now, the authoritarian treatment of Ratched isn't going to work either but there's a lack of nuance in the message and I feel this nuance is really important as someone with moderate-severe social anxiety who gets regular panic attacks, I do need the treatment I'm getting for it (though that's not currently medicated though I wish it were from the people I know who do have medicine for their anxiety) and I'm not going to be cured by some guy just taking me out and forcing me to do things, what that'll actually do is give me a series of severe panic attacks and make me feel like shit. If anybody wants an interesting and more nuanced approach to the issues of mental health, the film Lunacy by Jan Svankmajer brilliantly portrays the flaws in both the liberal and authoritarian systems and how difficult it is to treat mental health, especially with considerations of what should be considered a mental health issue and what is being socially abnormal but happy with that (further note, it's actually also very easy to convince oneself, when mentally ill, that it is "just you" and that you are happy with how things are because you're afraid to get treated so there's a problem with the critique as well in that it can cause further problems and delays in treatment for those who do genuinely need it).
