They should bring back insane asylums and lobotomies. It’s tragic what happened to the church goers. Not all insane asylums were abusive. I’ve stayed in a mental hospital for ten days after my therapist called the ambulance because I made a video and talked about me having homicidal thoughts and I don’t act on it because it’s illegal. and I didn’t see anyone getting raped or beaten. I been in the psych ward three times.
