  • Summary

  • It’s happened to countless Americans: Your mental health is teetering— and you don’t know what to do. Should you speak to your therapist? Have someone take you to the ER? Or do you need something in between? In this country, there aren’t a ton of options. Former psych ER patient Michelle opens up to Kate and Nashia about how far she had to go to access care when she was in crisis, and reporter Ann Marie Awad teaches us about the history of asylums.
