A proposito di questo titolo

In the 1950s, psychiatry declared a revolution.Chlorpromazine—later branded as Thorazine—emptied wards, reduced agitation, and made patients cooperative. The profession celebrated. Awards were given. Hospitals reorganized around the drug.But Thorazine was not designed to heal the mind.It was designed to suppress shock.This episode examines how an accidental anesthetic became the foundation of modern psychiatric care—and how irreversible neurological damage was accepted as progress when the only metric that mattered was quiet.
