Abstract:
The Indian Constitution guarantees all fundamental rights to mentally ill people. Gender is a significant factor when a woman develops a mental illness, the necessary assistance is sometimes tardily sought. Although laws exist to safeguard the rights of mentally ill women receiving institutionalised care in India, execution is still a pipe dream. Women who are institutionalised with mental illnesses might experience change in their life and see improvements in their mental health with coordinated efforts at the social, political, economic, and legal levels. This research focuses on the issues

Abstract:
Shirley Jackson's fiction continues to be placed within the gothic horror genre because of its supernatural and horror images. I contend the major focus of her work is her critique of the social norms constructed for women by an archaic and inauthentic patriarchial system of rules and domestic expectation for women that result in madness for the resisting female.

Abstract:
Research shows that women are at higher risk for being victimized simply because of their gender. Women with mental illness living independently are especially vulnerable, since they underreport victimization and underutilize available resources. This study evaluated the benefits of educating women with mental illness about safety and violence. Twenty women utilizing outpatient services at two community mental health centers participated in one of two 12-week groups: 15 received an educational curriculum and 5 a control condition.

Cinematic and written autobiographical representations of “mental illness” reflect and shape various models of psychological trauma and wellness.

This chapter studies Balzac's Louis Lambert (1832), in which the character of Lambert is a (possibly) mentally ill genius who retreats into a world to which only his erstwhile fiancée has access. Through his writings Balzac attempts to examine and portray a certain topic on the matter of geniuses: the essential role played by women in their survival. Louis Lambert ends with the destruction of the main character, a male genius who nonetheless exemplifies all Balzac's own ideas about genius, and is also its most complete and elaborate theorist.

This chapter investigates mothers' experiences of post-separation abuse, particularly focusing on "system abuse" as a gendered health issue affecting women disproportionately. Using the concepts of institutional betrayal and DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender), it reveals how institutional responses often align with perpetrator tactics, thus perpetuating the abuse. Based on 46 interviews with mothers from diverse backgrounds, the analysis highlights their negative experiences with institutions in the context of abuse from their children’s fathers.

But the state implemented no social welfare policies to make new medical services more accessible and affordable to the public. The institution of the family, especially

Abstract:
Abstract Gendered understandings of madness and family-based care continued into the post-World War II period. In the early 1950s, a series of laws and financial incentives dramatically shifted structures of care from the home to hospitals. Still, families retained much of their primacy in the management of care. Indeed, the burden of domestic responsibility for the mentally ill fell even more intensely on the shoulders of women than ever before, as the home was renewed as the most socially legitimate space of rest. Gendered notions of madness persisted, too, as did women’s reliance on the lan

Abstract Unlike her husband, Susan never formally traced her family’s lineage, but its history had a great impact on her. If the first generation provided a reified version of pioneer life, the next generation deconstructed the tale. While her grandfather Silas may have been a fine horticulturist, he was not a good businessman. At his death, little remained of the original family tract, and it was finally disposed of in 1882, when his widow Susan came to live with her younger son Elmer and his family, including six-year-old Susan.
