> rip the person completely away from their lifestyle and give them an entirely new

This is how mental hospitals show results. A hospitalized person is ripped out of their daily non-routine, detoxed, given constant social interactions, and given a lot of structured routines, including sleep/wake, medications, provider visits, meal times, group sessions, and designated free time.

A person who can get with the program, or a person who does not violently kick against the goads, will get increasingly healthier evaluations, because our drugs are working, right?
