Sumario:The “Dark?Gods” syntagm, which is found in the last lesson of Seminar?XI (1964?[1995]), is used as a baseline to articulate it with mental health and segregation processes. To this end, the article briefly reviews the evolution of what may be included under the label of mental health. The starting point is Cabred’s project, which encourages the creation of asylums under the Open?Door system. From there, the article notes the transition from the asylum system to the enactment of mental health legislation. The “Dark?Gods” syntagm is then articulated with the segregation processes that contribute to turning a subject into a disposable object.
