Prior to the beginning of the c/s/x movement in the 1970s there were earlier patients who engaged in activism toward similar goals of the c/s/x movement. Two of the earliest examples are in 1868. In 1868 Elizabeth Packard published several books and pamphlets that detailed her forced commitment, at the hands of her husband, to the Jacksonville Insane Asylum in Jacksonville, Illinois. Packard went on to found the Anti-Insane Asylum Society. Around a similar time, in Massachusetts, Elizabeth Stone, who was forcibly committed to an asylum by her husband, tried to form public solidarity around stopping the unjust commitment and incarceration of individuals who were deemed insane.
