 +1. Why is the trend for mental hospitals to get worse rather than better?  Institutionalization itself could be a beneficial and safe alternative for mentally ill patients and yet it almost never is. 
 + 
 +2. Does the military focus on psychiatry from a warfare lens in that there is more research being done for how to harm the enemy then to help their own soldiers?  This is certainly true for before the Vietnam War but how has this perspective changed?

 1. In From Madness to Mental Health we read about PTSD as it was conceived according to the DSM-III, which came out in 1980 (402). DSM-III’s description of the disorder begins “The essential feature is the development of characteristic symptoms following a psychologically traumatic event that is generally outside the range of usual human experience.” The phrase “that is generally outside the range of usual human experience” is deleted in the DSM-IV TR (2000). I’m wondering if omission of this phrase is due to soldiers and first responders developing PTSD when simply doing their jobs. What do you think? 1.

 +As the 20th Century Developments reading explains, support groups like AA became prime examples of successful treatment options. Do you think its "community-based" style connects to the overall good, say, deinstitutionalization had on affected people during this time? Do you think AA's need for members to hold themselves accountable played/plays a role?
 +
 +How would you lay out––or say Summers laid out––the major changes between the early to late 20th Century? Was there any "going backward," per se? Were most of the issues during this time budget-based, or based on bad science?
