Sylvia Plath - like, for example, Vincent Van Gogh - was not "mentally ill" - at least for the simple reason that there is no such thing as "mental illness".
It appears that, in all our commemorations of her, we still sadly do not point out that she was a VICTIM and a SURVIVOR of the most vicious forms of "Psychiatry" (Greek for "mindhealing").
She "experienced" it at probably its most evil apogee - the USA in the 1950s.
The Rosenbergs were electrocuted to death. So were many others by other racist US executioners.
In another act of violence, Sylvia was electrocuted too, don't forget. Poor, poor soul.
How can what is essentially an execution method be a medical process?
It can't - and it is a horrific endictment of the complacency of Medicine, Law and the whole of our civilisation that this wicked crime continues at all.

Psychiatry's Electro-Convulsive Shock "Treatment" ("ECT") is wholly unnecessary, totally pointless, totally bogus scientifically and a crime against humanity.
It is very damaging.
It is - we must never forget - like so much of psychiatry - AN ACT OF VIOLENCE.
Frankly, I am surprised the Royal Engineers haven't been round to all "E.C.T. Torture Stations" and evacuated the people and then "burned the hole" with a few good old Bangalore Torpedos and blown the fuckers up! Then put the Nazis who run them on trial.
Get on with it. UBIQUE QU FAS ET GLORIA DUCUNT!
What shocks me - if you'll pardon the pun - is the utter apathy about the issue.
Where are Bono and U2 for example?
Are they busy sipping champagne with Elton John? Or watching the beautiful oil fields?
I have emailed Sue - shown above and she is an inspiration - a living saint if ever there was one!
She was really friendly and kind to me.
She does all she can to end this nightmare for millions. Wow!
It has happened on a massive scale in the UK since the 1950s at least.
It was originally "experimented with" on vagrants.
Like I say elsewhere, doctors are concerned enuff about boxing to campaign systematically and in an organised way for its abolition.
Why the silence about this wicked crime?? - an embarrassment to what is left of "Medicine"!!
-------------
To even talk of "voluntary electrocution" - as a Professor of Medicine did to me yesterday - I sincerely find offensive.
Would one talk of "voluntary kneecapping"?......
