Speaking of movies on this subject, one of the first was "The Snake Pit" with Olivia DeHaviland (1946?). Despite the melodramatic title, it is really quite good in parts, and for it's time it was a breakthrough.
Some parts are a little dated, like the god-like, pipe-smoking psychotherapist, and the too-easy "cure" after a whirlwind theraputic tour of DeHaviland's early childhood.
