The document outlines the evolution of psychiatric nursing in Malawi from 1910 to present day. It began in 1910 when mentally ill prisoners were separated out from the general prison population at Zomba Central Prison, cared for by prison warders. Over time, the government passed laws regarding humane treatment of the mentally ill. Zomba Mental Hospital opened in 1953, initially staffed by medical assistants and attendants. The first psychiatrist and foreign psychiatric nurses arrived in 1955. Malawian nurses began specialized psychiatric nursing training abroad in the 1970s. Degree programs in psychiatric and mental health nursing have been established since the early 2000s.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

when three mentally ill inmates were identified and a Lunatic Asylum as a
wing was established. Staffed by prison warders
