Drugs, electro-convulsive therapy, and surgery are used to treat people with schizophrenia and others with persistent mental illnesses. Some are infected with malaria; others are treated with repeated insulin-induced comas. Others have parts of their brain removed surgically, an operation called a lobotomy, which is performed widely over the next two decades to treat schizophrenia, intractable depression, severe anxiety, and obsessions.

In the 1930s, mental disabilities were often misunderstood and stigmatized. Many individuals were institutionalized in large state-run facilities, where they were subjected to harsh treatments such as electroshock therapy and lobotomies. There was little focus on individualized care or support for those with mental disabilities.
Society is much better about its portrayal and reaction to mental illness than it was in the 1930s. Today, people understand that mental illness does not make a person insane or scary. There is still work to be done in advancing the tolerance of and decency towards mentally ill persons, though.
