Thanks for the comment, is a great movie :-)

I agree the psychiatric profession is at best backwards and regressive and at its worst cruel and uncaring, certainly any experiences I have had of mainstream medicine dealing with mental health issues has been horrific. Generally they have textbook things that they follow to deal with everyone, they do not recognise the individual and they paint everyone across the board with the same treatments irrespective of if it helps or if it does severe damage, the worst aspect of this too is non conformity from a patients point of view to them is the person not engaging to trying hard enough, although the electro shock therapy may be a lot less these days, overall psychiatric ideas towards care is still stuck in the dark ages, maybe once they start treating people as individuals there will be a change.
That is interesting you worked in that field, in what capacity? Did you find you were able to help people?
