Lamont back in the day when females were going thru menopause they were considered crazy and sent to some horrid facility to be 'cured'. I suffer with depression and I wonder what would have happened to me had I been alive back in that time. God bless you and you are BLESSED. You bring these poor souls some dignity in their death. Thank you dear.

[@brendamccullough7424]

That is true.My former mother in kaw was 42 when my ex husband was born and her husband died 2 months before he was born in 1948.She was always a nervous nellie when I knew her in tbe 1970's. Anyway as time oassed she got more depressed and was going throught menopause.So her sister and brother kaw had her committed to Central State Hospital ,an asylum in Miledgeville,,Ga where she underwent shock therapy. Also the sister and her brother in law embezzled all rhe money from her late husbands estate. The holitak has been closed for years now but yes,back then all you needed to be committed was 2 family members to sign off on it.

How sad. The only good thing is that God has not forgotten about any of them. And the cemetery is well kept.

[@JenT-bj9pe]

That's so sad;( A lot of our mental health places have closed down. Now they are going to nursing homes with the elderly and they can become very violent. I'm not saying we need institutions, like in the past, but we need a place for them to get help.

Look, some were locked up for a reason. The rest of us had the right to have our loved ones, our children and potential grandchildren. In Ohio, since 2004, 60 or so women have been found murdered in Cuyahoga County Ohio USA. You should search number of unsolved homicide's by County & by State some States do it differently. We've got criminals and batshit crazy people who haven't only been using our information, but the name's & associated fraudulent identity of our missing & deceased loved ones or those who don't even live in the United States. We've got criminals and batshit crazy people who "made" themselves part of the family and are not any relation what so ever. It's absolutely horrifying & mortifying. In the past year or so a Psychopathic Serial Killer who was working as a Doctor was arrested for the murder of over 20 people that they know about & an additional 23 people have been arrested involving those & possibly other death's in Ohio USA. In Indiana USA a man was finally arrested for some very horrific crime's but he's also using the first & last name of Navy Seal Team Member Shane Patton. That Scumbag Never was a Navy Seal & Never will be... he's supposed to be executed for not only what he is currently charged with which is bad enough, but Stolen Valor is worse than Stolen Identity it's called Treason punishable by death. The man is using Navy Seal Team Member Shane Patton's name and therefore should be executed for the Crime's he has done against the United States and potentially Globally.

[@BECREUL]

Little Bit , it seems to me that the type of person you’re talking about is crazy alright, crazy like a fox. First of all you’d have to be pretty organized to kill over 60 people and get away with it. The vast majority of the people in these places couldn’t even tie their shoes, let alone mastermind the types of crimes your talking about. That rant was pointless, you’re barking up the wrong tree.

[@littlebit6211]

Well, I guess that the people who did the last Mass Shooting yesterday in Odessa Texas USA couldn't hardly tie their shoes according to you. I don't think that you are wrapping your mind around the seriousness of the situation. Perhaps you don't know the difference between someone being Mentally disabled/challenged & somebody who is criminally insane. I am not trying to be insulting, but some people don't know. I urge you to read about the Psychopathic Serial Killer who was working as a Doctor in Ohio USA and was arrested for the murder of over 20 that they know about. There's been some 23 other people arrested in connection with that case. Also, an article about the so called Doctor who came up missing in 2018 that worked for the CDC/Center For Disease Control. I want you to look at the man using the name Timothy Cunningham in the picture. Nice big smile and beautiful Military Uniform. The reality is that a Holistic Nutritionist isn't a Doctor.... It's Fraud. A Holistic Nutritionist has never been to Medical School & they are quacks. The article States that the man working for the CDC is the 86th person found dead in the Chattahoochee River in Georgia USA. Nearly a hundred people that authorities are admitting that were found dead in the Chattahoochee River in Georgia USA (how many are there really?). The black man identifying himself as Timothy Cunningham in the picture doesn't look like an Irishman Scotsman or Jew to me. In fact, a Timothy Cunningham died in Iraq or Afghanistan in 2008 in the Military & the one with the real clearance's. You can listen to something, but don't hear. You can look at something, but don't see.

[@trishamorrisluke9404]

My mother worked at CDC there that this cemetery was associated with. Several people in my in my family worked there in fact and back in the late 1960s to the early 1970s my grandmother was a "professional grandmother" there. I'm sure there was a different name for what she did but she explained her job in this way. These people needed a lot more love than they got. My Gramma gave them that.

[@RollowArlin]

@@cutehumor Many of those considered insane were disowned by their kin so it would not known of their relationship as such knowledge could interfere with a marriage, obtaining insurance etc. When they died no one would acknowledge they were related and didn't want the expense of a burial. The saddest state of affair that can be imagined for these poor souls.

I have a Good Friend who succcessfully overcame his mental illness and he works for a Housing industry that houses ppl. with mental illnesses. Hes also a well respected Advocate in the community for ppl.with mental illnesses as well. In our city, this man noticed grave sites in a cemetary at a local state hospital. He discovered these graves were overlooked and ignored and it ripped him to the core of his heart so he wanted to do something about it. He got his story in our Local Newspaper and Media and he opened up a project to get these grave sites cleaned up and find the names of these ppl. and got them new stones with their names and if possible, try to find out their lives stories. He wanted to make sure these ppl. had a proper headstones and that they were shown compassion and dignity of positive recognition while alive and after death. Im so greatful that he did this wonderful and admirable act for the Mental Healh Consumer Community. Without Him, there would still be stigma against ppl. with mental illness. You Rock my Friend😃

But he’s a free bird that can’t be caged. He is now in his mid-50’s and I haven’t talked to him in about 8 years. I worry about him but he lives as a traveler, just a nomadic wanderer that prefers the Dakotas, Minnesota, Idaho, Washington etc. if you run across, shake his had roll a doobie and sleep with one eye open, cuz he will tell ya, “I’ve done some very bad things.”

Back in the day parents would put their child in State Institute because it was an embarrassment to the family. They were the forgotten ones that No one spoke of.

My mother was institutionalized here for postpartum depression and a mental disorder. In 1974, She escaped from this mental hospital and got a revolver and a box of bullets! She planned to kill our family than herself, according to the police report. This is probably TMI, but she was able to get back to our house with that gun! I have no idea why the entire Columbus police weren't able to catch her, but she gained access to our house went upstairs and shot my step sister between the eyes! She was found innocent by reason of insanity. She was sentenced to life in prison, for committing that homicide. They sent her to the Lima, Ohio mental institution for the criminally insane.it was maximum security. I visited her there as a child. She died here in 1984. Ironically in that same mental hospital in this video. She was dead for several hours and her body was already decomposing. She was scheduled to be released. Unbelievably, to a halfway house.

He quoted, "I was derailed, and fooled. Instead of making my daughter better, it made her worse. I will forever be shamed for the horrible mistake that I have done to my beloved daughter.
