- 1. In Freud's first lecture from the Szasz reading, he points out that the first patient's symptoms may be due to some form of brain injury, which is exactly what I thought this was. However he moves away from the actual medical concerns into his psychoanalysis, but I wished he would have focused more on her condition. To me it sounds like she suffered from a traumatic brain injury that caused her mobility issues. He also describes what sounds like aphasia, which is attributed to "gibberish" and thus "madness." I'm curious to see what everyone else thought about the descriptions of patients and what Freud has to say about them.+1.

 2. What do you think of the movement that intended to strengthen patient rights instead of abolishing mental hospitals? This was even supported by people who were institutionalized against their will, like Elizabeth Packard. Why do you think this is so? 2.

 +1.) Why do you think it took an entire war; literally, for society to direct its focus towards the importance of proper mental care?
 +
 +2.) Based on Grob's reading; do you think that if the war had never occurred; would we have the same approach on mental health that we have today? Do you think that mental health care would be handled worse or better if not for the effects of the war?

 +1. Did these patients actually remember events, or was it something Freud and Breuer planted in their minds?
 +
 +2. Why would women, like Elizabeth Packard, who have seen firsthand how asylums operated, only fight for legal rights of the patients and not for asylum reform?

 +1. Grob discusses that PTSD was largely discussed due to military psychiatrists first hand experience at war, with such things as war and even violence why do you think it took so long for this revelation to occur?  What role did technological warfare play in this trauma?
 +
 +2. Freud’s discussion of psychiatry versus psychology seems very relevant today, does American mental health continue to rely too heavily on medication over therapy?

 +1. Why do you think the treatment of mental health tended to use treatments that had no theoretical basis? What does this say about the outlook on the treatment of mental health?
 +
 +2. Why do you believe that war acted as such a catalyst for change in the way that Americans viewed their mental health system? Do you think progress still would have been made if the war had never took place?

 +1) Why do you think that the emphasis on community practiced psychology came after a wartime period?
 +
 +2) Why were the relationships between psychologists and other medical professionals so contentious? 
 +
 +(Submitted by Carson Berrier; I pledge…)
 +
 +1)The Szaz reading mentions trauma as being a new concept for a leading cause of mental disturbances among patients. Environmental factors have been considered before as being a cause of mental illness as well, is the first time that trauma is being seriously considered as a factor or has it been considered before and not pursued to the extent that Freud and Breuer did? 
 +
 +2)How could the treatment of those assumed to be ill from trauma compare to treatment to those who were mentally ill from external factors? Does the diagnosis of trauma make treatment easier on patients or does it open a new field of unknowing?
