ABSTRACT

For the 224 mentally sick many different forms of treatment were used. Seven were admitted to hospital, six voluntarily and one by certification. Of these, four were psychotic, two neurotic, and one a psychopath. Of the remainder many were given drugs, sometimes in association with psychotherapy. The drugs most frequently used were Sodium Amytal and Chlorpromazine, but other sedatives, tranquillizers, and antidepressants were also employed.
