In ancient times there was a mystical idea about mental illnesses, it was until the 19th century, when the knowledge of the central nervous system was developed and parallel to it, the evaluation and treatment of the same illnesses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Old Gonz\u00e1lez Hospital had spaces to attend to the mentally ill, as mentioned by Dr. Juan de Dios Trevi\u00f1o, director of the same: \u201c\u2026 we have 8 cells with iron doors to guard the mad madmen, which helps a lot in the study of mental illnesses \u201d(Report, 1886). Referring not only to medical attention, but to scrutinizing these diseases. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For the year 1904, as Dr. Luis Cavazos Guzm\u00e1n refers, \u201cDr. Gonz\u00e1lez Flores himself informed the Governor on July 31, 1904, that of the 125 patients hospitalized [at the Gonz\u00e1lez Hospital], a third were mentally ill. (Social security in Nuevo Le\u00f3n, 1999).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

At the national level, the first psychiatric hospital in Mexico was \u201cLa Casta\u00f1eda\u201d, opened in 1910, it was the academic reference, since doctors from different parts of the country, were doing their studies there, as was the case of Dr. Sim\u00f3n Riojas: \u201cIn February, Dr. Sim\u00f3n Riojas was provided with the amount of $ 100 in cash and a license was granted for two months in the chairs that he is in charge of in order to allow him to study psychiatry at the asylum in Mixcoac, DF\u201d (Reports , 1939).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In the 1940 Curriculum, of the Nuevo Le\u00f3n School of Medicine, the Clinical Psychiatry course, taught by Dr. Gabriel Cap\u00f3 Balle, was directed to students in the 5th year: \u201cThe course of psychiatry will be a pass for students who have less than 15 absences and for the next school year the teacher of the subject must formulate the curriculum that will be considered by the board of directors before starting it \u201d. (Reports, 1940).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
