Realistic or UnrealisticThis is a featured page

The Director of Mental Helath Services and other hospital employees reenacting a trial in a courtroom (every time there is rainy weather) in order to reach a Prosecutor that had a mental breakdown after she helped put an innocent man in jail Rainy Days
Just can't imagine the hospital would use their resources like this several times a year, depending on the weather.

Creating a mock C-section for a woman who was not pregnant as treatment for her delusional husband, and since he was also her doctor, asking him to do the surgery a beatuiful delusion
Doesn't it seem a little dangerous to let a mental health patient in the OR, and hand them a scalpel and encourage them to start cutting? Wouldn't someone get in trouble for that?
