Mad to Be Normal

Mad to Be Normal

In the 1960s, acclaimed Scottish psychologist R.D. Laing is criticised for his infamous anti-psychology experiment in Kingsley Hall, East London. He applied his self-healing method known as metanoia on test subjects diagnosed with a psychological disorder. The controversial treatment ultimately changed our perception of mental health.
