Summary
In this episode, we explore the current political climate and the possibility of the return of institutionalized mental health care. Though this is not a political podcast (I think Preston says that 5 times) , all of medicine is political,and it’s important to discuss the overlap. Tune in to the Patreon section to directly support the creators and for more discussion about how institutionalization is handled in other countries!
