If someone who has never been in a psych ward were to make a visit, they would get the impression that there is nothing going on except for patients walking around like zombies and that the staff are uncaring and look the other way, leaving patients to fend for themselves.

Patients are not left alone to fend for themselves; after all mentally ill people are dependents and cannot truly function without support; whether that support is direct or indirect.

The Psych Ward Chronicles is a factual account of events that took place at a well-known psychiatric centre in New York City.
