CW: ableism, racism, gender-based violence, psychiatric trauma, abuseIn pt. 2, we continue to explore the history of Weston State Hospital asylum and mental health institutions in America. In this part we uncover the different “treatments” that were used at these institutions, including the famously horrific “Icepick” lobotomies. We’ll also explore the history of the DSM, deinstitutionalization and the decline of asylums in America. Tune in to learn how Weston State was transformed into the tourist attraction that it is today and learn about the psychiatric survivors & disability justice movement. <a href='https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AxETbcf3kSOXjntYEscAt3wGDMgzj5tb-9pQ031gJfs/edit'>References </a> Outro last updated April 2023<a rel="payment" href="https://www.patreon.com/unpackingtheeerie">Support the show</a>Thank you for listening to our passion project <3 <a href='https://linktr.ee/unpacktheeerie'>You can find us on social media here!</a> We're a team of 2 people & have always been ad-free.
