The word 'Asylum'

I just can't 'feel' this word.
What actually comes first to your mind when you hear it?
Is that true that people imagine a mental hospital right away? Some insane place?

Is there a connection with refuge, shelter? Something more positive?

Or 'mental hospital' predominates?

I guess it's a nuthouse countable and a refuge uncountable.
