Political abuse of psychiatry
Political abuse of psychiatry is when a person is sent to a mental hospital for something that isn't really a mental illness. It usually involves someone speaking out against the government or having a different opinion than the government, so the government wants to keep that person quiet. It is wrong because people should be able to have their own opinion without the threat of being sent to a mental hospital.
