To be a mental patient is to watch TV and see how violent and dangerous and dumb and incompetent and crazy everyone is!

> To be a mental patient is to participate in stupid groups that call themselves therapy. Music isn't music, it's therapy; volleyball isn't a sport,
> it's therapy; sewing is therapy; washing dishes is therapy. Even the air you breathe is therapy.

In the 1960s in one hospital working in the laundry facility was called "Industrial Therapy" and seclusion was the "Special Treatment Room."

I think things may actually be better these days...
