Oh, we want to get back to the good old days.
Public opinion polls throughout the late 60s showed rising concern about crime, protest and civil disorder.
Politicians increasingly campaigned with promises of restoring law and order.
Newspapers filled their front pages with images of burning buildings, armed protesters and confrontations between demonstrators and police.
Fear became part of everyday political conversation and fear...
has a remarkable ability to shape the way societies interpret what they see.
An angry black activist demanding equal rights, a young man confronting police officers, someone expressing distrust of government institutions, right?
All of this, right?
Today we'd ask, you know, what led them to those beliefs?
But back in the very tense political climate of the 1960s, some people, including psychiatrists, began asking a very different question.
What if this wasn't simply political anger?
What if it was a symptom?
Right, and this would profoundly reshape the way schizophrenia was described, diagnosed and understood in America.
Not because the illness itself had changed, but because America had changed.
Now, if the story ended with growing social anxiety, it would already be an uncomfortable chapter in American history, but it didn't end there.
Because those anxieties seeped into medicine.
And not through one single conspiracy, not because psychiatrists gaveled and, you know, smoke-filled rooms plotting to redefine it.
It happened gradually.
One journal article, one revised diagnostic description, a hospital case report, a pharmaceutical advertisement.
Right?
