SHEER LUNACY

No photo description available.

In the red water the woman's head was immersed. As they drove the iron through the skull, a technique called trephination.She let out the roar of the damned, thus confirming trephination's efficacy and the doctors'  suspicions. 
Yellow bile for mania, black bile for depression, we need to teach her a lesson.
This innocent touched by angels, blessed by God, left to scream and scream and sleep on shitty straw.
Mr Medical Director, do you know how very much we do not know? No? Thought so.
Hysteria,  a plague of females, brought on by moonbeams and menstruation. Lunacy a disease of the womb. Live too long, die too soon.

Poor villagers would take mentally handicapped people into their homes and treat them like children.
Some of the troubadours or traveling musicians sang of tragic love madness. The mad were blessed.
William Blake, poet and artist, talked to the spirits he saw everywhere. They inspired 'Songs of Innocence and  Experience'.
You go to the doctor with symptoms of profound grief and they push an antidepressant at you. 
Psychiatrists  label socially unacceptable forms of behaviour as medical in order to treat the poor terrified patient under the guise of a medical intervention.
Those diagnosed as mentally ill are subjected to treatment which is a violation of their human rights and dignity.
The water gurgles and whooshes under the bridge. She's tried to kill himself twice. Third time lucky.....?

I am so very sorry to hear that dear Jed. I recently lost my best friend to a suicide that should have been prevented. He begged for help at two hospitals and was turned away with a big bag of fucking valium. The coroner is still investigating but I'm sure nobody will accept responsibility and my friend will not be coming out with the dogs ever again. John
