@uncover_exploration: Behind the decaying walls of Northern State Hospital in Sedro-Woolley lies a tragic past that deserves to be remembered. Opened in 1912, it was designed as a refuge for those in need of mental health care, but soon became a place of suffering. Overcrowding, lack of resources, and controversial treatments like lobotomies and electroshock therapy left many patients traumatized, or worse, never making it out. The hospital reached its peak with over 2,000 patients, many of whom were forgotten by society. With little to no support, these individuals faced severe mistreatment, often living in isolation and enduring harsh conditions. When the hospital finally closed in the 1970s, it left behind not only empty buildings but countless untold stories of lost lives and neglected souls. Today, Northern State stands as a reminder of the darker side of mental health care history. It’s a place where the echoes of the past are impossible to ignore. #MentalHealthHistory #ForgottenSouls #NorthernStateHospital #WashingtonHistory #MentalHealthAwareness #AbandonedPlaces #UrbanExploration #HauntedAsylum #HistoricalMystery #SedroWoolley #MentalHealthMatters
