ACCCKKK!!! Forgot the link - sorry:

"The Public Hospital for Persons of Insane and Disordered Minds" in Williamsburg, Virginia (now called Eastern State Hospital) took its first admission on October 12, 1773, and was the first public facility in the U.S. built solely for the care and treatment of people with psychiatric issues.

I believe the McLean Asylum in Somerville MA was the first dedicated psychiatric institution in the United States, founded in 1811. The old asylum at Worcester was built in 1833, and the abandoned state hospital that stands there today was built in the 1870s. The asylum in Utica NY was the first state-built psychiatric hospital in 1843.

yha but i am really bad at spelling sorry cathedral

that is kinda creepy

no it means that a female wears clothes that are in style and can match very well they can also say well that doesn't match or you can't wear patterns with patterns.

I am pretty sure it was used for schizophernic because that is wat it saaid in my class

WAT OK U R FREAKING ME OUT

Wasn't the Trans Allhageny Lunitic Asylum one of the first. It was also one of the biggist. PS I haven't seen session 9

Were lobotomies done more for schizophrenic or Manic Depressive patients?( I seem to recall for schizophrenics more, but it's been 10 years since my psych classes)?

Lynne and/or Big Ed, your input would be very helpful.

Damn I remember that "A" well from the movie "Session 9"

I work as a part time teacher's aide in a private learning center and I do this also; raiding dollar stores to give our kids a bit of holidays( due to the fact that many of the kids are on a specialized diet due to Autisim and ADHD we are not allowed to give out food/candy)
(many of the kids I work with are ADHD, autistic, childhood bipolar and other DDs)

Certainly you can, if you are willing to plop down a large down payment and sign a lengthy lease. ;-)

It CAN be hydrotherapy, unless your attendant is Norman Bates. :-)

Try googling "cathedral" under images, but make sure to use Motts' spelling.
