Elenco dei motivi per ricovero in un manicomio


Welcome to the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum located in Weston, WV. Formerly known as the Weston State Hospital, this West Virginia facility served as a sanctuary for the mentally ill in the mid-1800’s. The history of the building holds fascinating stories of Civil War raids, a gold robbery, the "curative" effects of architecture, and the efforts of determined individuals to help better the lives of the mentally ill.
E l'avreste mai detto che anche leggere romanzi era tra i motivi di ricovero in questo manicomio? Sicuramente era pieno di gente interessante...
