This chapter is in the beginning of the book, when eighteen-year-old Susanna Kaysen is automatically sent to McLean Hospital after a session with a psychiatrist she'd never seen before. She thought she spent twenty minutes in the doctors office when the doctor said it had really been three hours. The doctor probably sent hr away so quickly because he thought she had serious problems or, since this takes place in the 1960's, a lot of mental illnesses were new to people so there were no clear treatments. Also, if a woman had any kind of problem like this she was set away immediately.
