For the study, Rao spent five months studying mentally ill homeless women in Mysore city of Karnataka. Four women had bipolar disorder, seven had schizophrenia and 10 had psychosis not otherwise specified. The women had relatively short stays in the facility: ten women stayed one to 10 months, and eight stayed 11 to 20 months, while only three stayed 21 months or longer.
