We can sole this problem by treating people with mental illnesses like everybody else and not acting like they are sick people. I think insane asylums should be more comforting and have things that make you happy, and not have a dark room with one bed one pillow and no windows. Sitting in a dark room doing nothing all day does'nt help you, it would make your illnesses worse.

Why was this particular character helpful or necessary for addressing this issue?

# data[].attributes.body
This character was particularly helpful because she put herself in an insane asylum to gather information about it for other people. I did my history report on nellie bly and she did this too. She was the first person to report about it and be in the newspaper because of her. She changed a lot about insane asylums but there should still be some more chnages.

What does your character teach us about this issue?

# data[].attributes.body
Norah teaches us about the abuse and disrespect workers at insane asylum use to the patients. Workers yell, pin down and shove pills into their mouths. The workers there think that pills fix everything. So they give them multiple different types of pills which mess with their brain even more. Some could say that insane asylums are close to jail/prison.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes this issue changes norah. Like i said before she fell into a deep depression. She struggled with this. This was because she was forced to take pills she did'nt need to take and the side effect of depression pills is suicide and self harm.
