This class also enlightened me on how the world can be a sick place from all the people with these disorders. From watching One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, it surprised me to how bad some of the treatments were to the patients. They went there for help; however, the ward was doing the opposite to them and making their disorders even worse. The controversial topic of lobotomy was also intriguing. I don’t know how a lobotomy is an O.K. thing to do to patients unless they are violent, yet I’d rather die than have to get a lobotomy.
