But of course, no mental health problem existed until recently no ?
Wait, hang on a minute...

Sounds like my parents in terms of ignorance. They think anyone with BP "should be locked up for the rest of their lives because they're a danger to all those around them. This is what they used to do back in the day."
Actually, my sister's friend's mom has BP, and once my parents found out, they told my sister that she wasn't allowed to hang out with that girl anymore. They said her mother "might severely injure" my sister. (This was like 4 years ago.) |

But on the other hand how many people are truly truly crazy locked in the asylum then? Same number probably or lesser as totally off the rails people today, who are living in institutions and need to be taken care off full time.
Surely 100 years ago we didn't have luxury of claiming 25% of the USA mentally ill (but given that Trump is running for president... maybe there is something about it) or obsessing about "I am ill, it's not my fault". A lot of people who run around with diagnosis would just have to live with it 100 years ago. Was it good? Bad? There had been plenty of people were melancholic or weird. Today they would be diagnosed... again... is it good? Bad? It's been a different world back then. We didn't have social media, women weren't expected to work all life, life was not so fast and busy, colonialism was considered perfectly okay... lots changed. Hard to compare to world of back then.

They also didnt call ptsd what it is after vietnam. They called it shell shock, and thousands of vets suffered with substance abuse and other health issues due to lack of knowledge.

Shell shock... much more fitting name that clinical cold sounding abbreviation. So now we call people ****ed up by war or bad things disordered... how much progress is that? You know people still suffer from traumas, even if they have fancy name for it. And that name does not guarantee compassion and empathy for the traumatized.
