One Flew Under the Cuckoo’s Nest takes place at New Hope Hospital, UK where Psychiatrists pick and choose from an A-Z of Diagnosis. A new patient loses his name and gains a label: Anorexic, Bulimic, Catatonic,   more...Depressed….or Whatever…

Vulnerable and fragile patients admitted to New Hope need to be Treated With Care, with a little bit of TLC. They want someone who will listen to them, someone who will understand them. But there’s never any time for that. Instead they receive Treatment. Do they recover, improve? Not really! They are disempowered, medicated, stigmatized. But there are some changes: they are now dehumanized!

Has anything really altered in the way the ‘mentally ill’ are treated and cared for? Maybe R D Laing’s words still apply today: ‘Doctors in all ages have made fortunes by killing their patients by means of their cures. The difference in psychiatry is that it is the death of the soul.’

PSYCH

psychotic thoughts in my mind
drive the hell right out of my psyche
i guess you would call that abuse
psychological terms that you'd use
well you may be right but i will not
let go of this freedom i fought for

this psychosis is real, it is here
and yeah it's the only thing i hear
psychotic thoughts through my mind
drive the hell out of me and my psyche

i wanna get out but i don't
in a way that would be self-affront
i would have to admit i was wrong
no no no i will stay in my world
i'll stay here in the psychics of fear
and i don't want you anywhere near

i wanna get out but i don't
no no no i will stay in MY world
i'll stay here in the psychics of fear
and i don't want you anywhere near

- this is MY mind and i choose
to be what you call self-abuse
psychedelic demons in me
they speak through my mouth and i see
how they look through my eyes unto me
how i look through my eyes unto me

who am i in this psych world of mine
in this psychosis i call divine?
who am i in this psych world of mine
this psychosis i call divine?
