Still all about the poignancy of ex-Soviet assassins

1940s Psychiatry and Stucky historical meta (let's chat, if you like!)

Wed, 19 Dec 2018 20:29:29 GMT

I’ve been loving all the historical meta on Steve and Bucky’s 1940s world. I will be writing my OWN, on psychiatry in the interwar and Second World War period, including of traumatized soldiers both once they returned to home and while they were still in war theaters.

Electroshock therapy is still well known, but we’ve largely forgotten the therapy that developed alongside it: insulin shock therapy, and forced sleep. It was truly grim and disproportionately affected women/queer people/traumatized soldiers.

For now, though, all that research is in the Stucky Sleeping Beauty fusion, love among the ruins. I am always up for talking to anybody about this research, here, or on ao3 or Twitter or tumblr.

I am always up for chatting about Fucked Up Psychiatric Practices of Yore, so if that's your kind a thing then let's chat somewhere :)
