Hey there, history lovers! Welcome to part 2 of our deep dive into the history of hysteria.


In this episode, we follow hysteria into the 19th century and beyond, where everything gets worse. From the bizarre to the genuinely horrifying, we unpack the “treatments” used from the 1800s through the modern era as the medical treatment of women continues its downward spiral.
