Please read my post about a family friend-he and my wife,Debbie, did not receive the care they deserved-both with VERY different consequences-he being incarcerated for murder, she with her deeply emotional memoir as a way to heal. hashtag#mentalhealthawareness hashtag#psychiatry hashtag#memoirs

He suffered for over 40 years in the institution and was not allowed visitors as their presence was too"upsetting" for him. The last time my grandmother saw him was the day he was taken away-she was 11. hashtag#mentalhealthawareness hashtag#psychiatry hashtag#memoirs

Another reason why mental health awareness and this book is so important to me.....This photo taken in London in 1919, is of my great grandfather, Arthur Edward Ruskin. Suffering from PTSD after the First World War, he had a nervous breakdown and was committed to an asylum, never to be released.

My goal is to raise awareness to the horrible conditions of Psych Wards where patients are treated without the care, compassion and treatment they deserve. They need respect and extra compassion as they are at their most vulnerable. thefactoryofmaladies.com #mentalhealth #suicideprevention #memoir
