I spent almost six months in a psychiatric hospital, being released on November 1, 2021. My book is about the fate of people associated with a mental hospital; most of the book is occupied by descriptions of patients and stories related to them. My book will answer such popular questions as “Is it true that people are turned into vegetables in a mental hospital? Is it true that orderlies beat patients? Have the Internet been installed in the psychiatric hospital? Why is the psychiatric hospital also called the yellow house and dacha? Washingtons, Napoleons and Lenins in the department are idle fictions or reality? Is it possible to escape? and many others. You will also learn about the rules, staff, food, entertainment and much more, that is, everything about the institution - from A to Z. The book will be of interest to those who have been to a mental hospital, those who are just planning to get there, as well as simply curious people , who are interested in learning about a world in which they will never find themselves. Published in the author's edition, preserving the author's spelling and punctuation. Character names have been changed. Artist Dimitry Podkovyrov.
