Summary:
Part memoir, part
history
, Inside The Mental offers an episodic journey into the stigma, horror, and redemption that Parley found within the institution's walls. Now in her nineties, Parley looks back at the emerging use of group therapy, the advent of patients' rights, evolving ethics in
psychiatry
, and the cast of characters she met there. She also reveals her role in experiments with LSD, pioneered by the world's leading researchers at "The Mental" to treat addiction and mental illness. Kay Parley was once a patient and psychiatric nurse at the Weyburn Mental Hospital in
Saskatchewan
.
