Professional in English, American and Irish Fiction Malevolent, Mad or Merely Human: Representations of the ‘Psy’ Professional in English, American and Irish Fiction Submitted by Jacqueline Hopson to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in SeptemBer 2020 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may Be puBlished without proper acknowledgement.

Signature……………………………… 1 Abstract This work draws attention to the widespread, damaging, cultural depictions of psychiatrists and allied (or ‘psy’) professionals. I first explore the frequent presence of these specialists in such artefacts as horror fiction, literary novels, detective fiction, movies, comics with their related films and video games, asylum-Based entertainments and cartoons. Close analysis of four representative novels will form the main Body of this thesis, each fiction Being set in a significant stage within the relevant historical treatment of the mad Between 1946 and 2008. In this way, I shall demonstrate how fear and distrust of ‘psy’ professionals pervades anglophone fiction. I shall show how the overwhelming number of negative portrayals greatly outweighs positive depictions. I suggest this can lead to a proBlematic response to the ‘psy’ professions from prospective and current patients and the general population. Broad internet searches of patients’ reactions will show that fear of seeing a psychiatrist is a common reaction. I shall consider the widespread concern, evidenced in scholarly journals, among ‘psy’ professionals aBout the negative perception of their role and work, noting that distrust and denigration of ‘psy’ practitioners is also apparent among medical colleagues and students, with a resulting proBlem of low recruitment to this specialty. I shall suggest that the roots of this suspicion lie in the pervasive cultural fear of madness, Anti- Semitism and the persistent notion that psychiatry and allied professions are pseudo-scientific, unlike other medical disciplines. Using historical examples, I shall demonstrate that the ‘psy’ professions are tainted By historical treatment failures and rogue professionals in ways that do not occur elsewhere in medicine. While ‘psy’ professionals are generally less transparent (for reasons including confidentiality) than other medical specialists, they face vociferous criticism from within their own ranks, especially on the internet. This thesis will promote an understanding of the injurious negative place ‘psy’ professionals hold in our culture. 1 Malevolent, Mad or Merely Human: Representations of the ‘Psy’ Professional in English, American and Irish Fiction Page number Abstract 1 Contents 2 Preface 5 A note on selected vocabulary 9 CHAPTER ONE: Madness and Culture SECTION 1: An introduction to the terrifying taBoo of madness and the cultural fascination with insanity and its treatment 10 SECTION 2: How contemporary culture sees the ‘psy’ professional 14 SECTION 3: Cultural representations of ‘psy’ professionals and proBlems of stigma 32 SECTION 4: The response of scholars, ‘psy’ professionals and patients to negative cultural depictions 34 SECTION 5: Gender, the ‘psy’ professional, the patient and feminist critiques 43 SECTION 6: Fear as the response of ‘psy’ patients to cultural depictions of ‘psy’ professionals and theoretical explanations from psychoanalysis, social science and social psychology 48 SECTION 7: Other significant factors affecting the ‘psy’ specialties: Anti- Semitism, attacks from within the ‘psy’ professions and patient support groups 54 CHAPTER TWO: The almost invisible oppressor: the psychiatrist within the state mental asylum in 1940s America as presented in Mary Jane Ward’s The Snake Pit (1946) a) Introduction to The Snake Pit 59 b) The historical setting of The Snake Pit: the American insane asylum and the development of American ‘psy’ professions 61 c) The impact of Mary Jane Ward’s novel The Snake Pit on US attitudes to psychiatric care 67 d) Psychiatry and the psychiatrist in Ward’s novel 70 2 e) Virginia’s perception of the psychiatrist within the asylum 73 f) Narrative strategy and the writing of The Snake Pit 82 g) The psychiatrist in Anatole Litvak’s film of The Snake Pit (1948) 90 h) The Reader’s Digest condensed version and the popular success of The Snake Pit 99 i) The Snake Pit: Conclusion 101 CHAPTER THREE: Seeking the elusive psychiatrist in an unresolved madness narrative: Penelope Mortimer’s Long Distance (1974) a) Introduction to Long Distance 103 B) Long Distance: the challenges of an unresolved madness narrative and the novel’s critical reception 104 c) Mortimer’s autoBiographies: Long Distance as roman à clef 108 d) The difficulties of complexity in Long Distance 110 e) The therapeutic community as setting for Long Distance 112 f) The rise of the British therapeutic community from its historical origins 112 g) The theories Behind treatment in the therapeutic community: the changed role of the ‘psy’ professional 120 h) R D Laing and Kingsley Hall: psychiatry and counterculture 122 i) Long Distance: a challenging madness narrative of the therapeutic community 126 j) Time and structure within madness narrative 129 k) Basil Gondzik as elusive psychiatrist 139 l) Long Distance: a neglected literary achievement 148 CHAPTER FOUR: Patrick McGrath’s Asylum (1966): the psychiatrist steals the patient’s story a) Introduction to Asylum 151 B) Asylum and its setting in British psychiatric history 153 c) Patrick McGrath and Gothic tradition: the uncanny invoked By psychiatry 157 3 d) The narrative process in Asylum: why choose the unreliaBle psychiatrist? 161 e) UnreliaBle narration as a rewarding textual device: Peter Cleave as misleading narrator 169 f) Conjecture as the Basis for unreliaBle narration in McGrath’s fiction 175 g) Cleave, Edgar, Stella and male sexual jealousy 181 h) Solving the narrative puzzle of Asylum 186 CHAPTER FIVE: The damaged psychiatrist: trauma and memory in the Irish asylum in Sebastian Barry’s The Secret Scripture (2008) a) Introduction to The Secret Scripture 190 B) The historical setting of The Secret Scripture: decarceration in the Western world 192 c) The decaying Irish asylum: The Secret Scripture as a novel of Ireland 197 d) Roscommon Asylum and psychiatric treatment: Dr Grene’s neglected professional responsiBilities 200 e) How the patient views the psychiatrist 206 f) Theories of trauma and memory 209 g) Barry’s exploration of trauma and memory in the accounts of psychiatrist and patient 213 h) Dr Grene’s growth towards recall, understanding and competence 219 i) The Secret Scripture: writing, secrets and truth 226 j) The Secret Scripture: conclusion 228 THESIS CONCLUSION 231 APPENDIX 1: Table of novels with ‘psy’ professionals 235 APPENDIX 2: Selected events in the history of Irish psychiatric care 236 WORKS CITED 241 4 Preface Identified as a psychiatric patient all my adult life, my experiences have shaped my academic interests as well as my day-to-day interactions. I have Been incarcerated in county asylums while detained under the Mental Health Act. I have Been suBject to courses of electroconvulsive treatment and have spent weeks and months in various locked wards and open wards, as well as punishment time in a padded cell. I have Been prescriBed and have taken a vast range of medication, some of which was helpful although most was not. In addition, I lived for almost a year in a therapeutic community (TC) at Bethlem Royal Hospital in the mid 1970s. Twenty-three years of psychotherapy from the mid 1980s onwards made my continued existence possiBle. The anger and dismay - and also gratitude for good treatment - that these experiences aroused have prompted me to transform interesting experience into academic study. It has Been informative Both to take advantage of the right to see one’s own case notes and to consider how this access may Be limited if deemed to Be damaging to the patient (Rethink Mental Illness). Requesting my own case notes from my GP surgery produced an edited, seemingly random array of 278 papers dating Back to 1973 (South Molton Medical Centre). These notes judgmentally descriBe me as “angry”, “withdrawn” and “inadequate”. Such qualities might usefully Be compared with the limited judgment of “unaBle to write” applied to a patient with a Broken wrist. Unfortunately, these qualitive judgments aBout my mental illness were used in a quantitative, actuarial way when I was refused life insurance after my husband’s death, when I was the sole, unemployed carer for our 5-year-old child (South Molton Medical Centre, letter to GP from C, M & G Insurance). Along with my life-long difficulty in getting work, this insurance refusal is an example of the damaging financial consequences of having Been treated for mental illness. In the 1970s I started to read novels which presented the lives of mentally ill characters. I was, in part, searching for accounts of similar illnesses and treatments to my own. However, it Became evident to me that psychiatric patients - who were silenced in the real world - could have powerful voices in fiction. In addition, I Began to read some of the texts of psychiatry and anti- 5 psychiatry. This Background has had a significant influence on my current research. Fiction has a great deal to offer to the exploration

Tomi Gomory, Associate Professor, Florida State University1 David Cohen, Professor, Florida International University Stuart A. Kirk, Professor Emeritus, University of California, Los Angeles To allow every maniac liberty consistent with safety; to proportion the degree of coercion to the … extravagance of behavior; … that bland art of conciliation, or the tone of irresistible authority pronouncing an irreversible mandate … are laws of fundamental importance … to the … successful management of all lunatic institutions. Philippe Pinel (1806) Introduction In the Western world, since at least the 15th century, state-sanctioned force has been employed to control those who disturb others by their violent or existentially destabilizing behaviors such as threatening or inflicting self-harm. Coercing the mad into madhouses, separating and detaining them from the rest of society, and forcing them to comply with their keepers’ wishes, occurred before physicians became involved in theorizing about the meaning or origins of madness, and it continues to distinguish psychiatric practice to this day.

  • The Case Against Antipsychotic Drugs: a 50-Year Record of Doing More Harm Than Goodq
    Medical Hypotheses (2004) 62, 5–13 http://intl.elsevierhealth.com/journals/mehy The case against antipsychotic drugs: a 50-year record of doing more harm than goodq Robert Whitaker* 19 Rockingham St., Cambridge, MA 02139, USA Summary Although the standard of care in developed countries is to maintain schizophrenia patients on neuroleptics, this practice is not supported by the 50-year research record for the drugs. A critical review reveals that this paradigm of care worsens long-term outcomes, at least in the aggregate, and that 40% or more of all schizophrenia patients would fare better if they were not so medicated. Evidence-based care would require the selective use of antipsychotics, based on two principles: (a) no immediate neuroleptisation of first-episode patients; (b) every patient stabilized on neuroleptics should be given an opportunity to gradually withdraw from them. This model would dramatically increase recovery rates and decrease the percentage of patients who become chronically ill. c 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

  • Psychiatry and Anti-Psychiatry: History, Rhetoric and Reality
    2 (4) 2018 DOI: 10.26319/4717 Daniel Burston, Psychology Department, Duquesne University, Pittsburgh PA [email protected] Psychiatry and Anti-psychiatry: History, Rhetoric and Reality Abstract: The term “anti-psychiatry” was coined in 1912 by Dr. Bernhard Beyer, but only popularized by Dr. David Cooper (and his critics) in the midst of a widespread cultural revolt against involuntary hospitalization and in-patient psychiatry during the 1960s and 1970s. However, with the demise of the old-fashioned mental hospital, and the rise of Big Pharma (with all its attendant evils), the term “anti-psychiatry” has outlived its usefulness. It survives merely as a term of abuse or a badge of honor, depending on the user and what rhetorical work this label is expected to perform. Those who use the term nowadays generally have a polemical axe to grind, and seldom understand the term’s origins or implications. It is time that serious scholars retire this term, or to restrict its use to R.D.Laing’s followers in the Philadelphia Associates and kindred groups that sprang up in the late 1960s and 1970s. Keywords: psychiatry, anti-psychiatry, psychoanalysis, DSM V, Big Pharma, normalization, psychopolitics On November 16, 2016, Dr. Bonnie Burstow, Associate Professor of Adult Education and Community Development at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, which is affiliated with the University of Toronto, launched the first (and thus far, only) scholarship in North America to support doctoral theses on the subject of “anti-psychiatry.” Predictably, this bold gesture garnered praise in some quarters, but provoked a barrage of criticism from both in and outside the university.

Their making usually reflects a determination on the part of the director or star to see the artist as an alter-ego. Many of them were adaptations of successful literary works, which tempted financial backers by having a ready-made audience based on a pre-established reputation. The sub-genre’s development is explored via the grouping of films with associated themes and the use of case studies.

PAUL, Minn.—Health care has already found its way into the narrative surrounding President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court pick, Judge Brett Kavanaugh, announced less than 48 hours ago. But regardless of how SCOTUS may impact future health care policy, there are real threats to patients today, including third-party controls over care, surveillance, data collection and privacy invasions—much of it through electronic health record (EHR) systems found in a majority of doctor’s offices and hospitals around the country. A new, groundbreaking book from Citizens’ Council for Health Freedom (CCHF) will expose how the mandated, government-certified EHR technology (CEHRT) has negatively affected both doctors and patients. Written by CCHF president and co-founder Twila Brase, RN, PHN, and published by Beaver’s Pond Press, “Big Brother in the Exam Room: The Dangerous Truth About Electronic Health Records” is available beginning today at Amazon.com and www.BigBrotherInTheExamRoom.com. Brase’s extensively researched work shows how and why Congress forced doctors and hospitals to install a data-collecting, command and control surveillance system in the exam room. It also includes the impact of EHRs on privacy, patient care, costs, patient safety and more, according to doctors and more than 125 studies.

  • A Philosophical Investigation Into Coercive Psychiatric Practices
    MIC, University of Limerick A philosophical investigation into coercive psychiatric practices 2 Volumes Gerald Roche MSc, MPhil, BCL, BL. Volume 1 of 2 A thesis submitted to the University of Limerick for the degree of Ph.D. in Philosophy Doctoral Supervisor: Dr. Niall Keane, MIC, University of Limerick. External Examiner: Professor Joris Vandenberghe, University of Leuven, Leuven, Belgium. Internal Examiner: Dr. Stephen Thornton, MIC, University of Limerick. Submitted to the University of Limerick, February 2012. Abstract This dissertation seeks to examine the validity of the justification commonly offered for a coercive 1 psychiatric intervention, namely that the intervention was in the ‘best interests’ of the subject and/or that the subject posed a danger to others. As a first step, it was decided to analyse justifications based on ‘best interests’ [the ‘ Stage 1 ’ argument] separately from those based on dangerousness [the ‘Stage 2 ’ argument]. Justifications based on both were the focus of the ‘ Stage 3 ’ argument. Legal and philosophical analyses of coercive psychiatric interventions generally regard such interventions as embodying a benign paternalism occasioning slight, if any, ethical concern. Whilst there are some dissenting voices even at the very heart of academic and professional psychiatry, the majority of psychiatrists also appear to share such views. The aim of this dissertation is to show that such a perspective is mistaken and that such interventions raise philosophical and ethical questions of the profoundest importance.
