Mitch (Part I of II): Unneeded Institutionalization | 129

Mitch (Part I of II): Unneeded Institutionalization  | 129

This week on Behind Beautiful Things, we welcome Mitch, the author of the book “Columbus Day”. On this episode, the first part in a two part series, Mitch tells the harrowing story of his childhood relationship with his Mother, how he was checked into a hospital for a 30 day “evaluation” without his knowledge, and then how he was institutionalized for three and a half years without any explanation. It is a story of resilience and strength, and will be continued next week. Please join us!
