Abstrakt: This article examines iatrogenic harms incurred by closed-ward psychiatric hospitals. In particular, this article considers roles of narrative in one patient's experience of life-encompassing iatrogenic harm from being institutionalized from infancy to age 60 and also emphasizes Italy's comparative success, relative to the United States, in recovering from decades of deinstitutionalization to establish community-based mental health care.
