History of Mental Illness?

Question by Go Herd: History of mental illness?
I’m writing a paper on the history of mental illness and how it has come to be accepted in society today. I’ve looked all night for sources through my university’s library website but all that I can come up with are abstracts and “unavailable” documents. Does anyone know where I can go to find reliable research sources?

Thanks in advance!
