Wonder drugs will work their magic, but self help will be the key
Description:
Speculates on the way mental health will be treated in the 1990s, with an emphasis on use of drugs; there are less psychiatrists and less patients, with the possibility of the "banishment of many forms of mental illness in the 1980s." Chamberlin is briefly referenced along with her book "On Our Own" where she talks about how hopefully there will be growing acceptance of patients' rights and more money will go to drop-in centers and community homes controlled by patients themselves.
