Yesterday morning I woke up in an especially depressed state. I called the clinic where I go and my regular counselor was busy so I had to go with a "crisis" counselor.
So I go down to talk to her and I end up being handcuffed and leg shackled and hauled off to the regional mental health hospital. I was in a terrible emotional state and I guess I made some remarks about my feelings that I was wondering if life was worth living. I had told her I had never made any suiced attempts and wasnt thinking about suicide. So despite this she thinks I am "suicidal", when all I wanted was someone to talk to.
So the sheriff chains me up like a terrorist or something and takes me to the hospital..in about 15 minutes the psychiatrist determines that I am NOT suicidal but since they got a temporary court order I had to wait till today to go to court and get dismissed.
What an ordeal...all the staff treated me like shit...and they would only give you a 5 minute smoke break every 8 hours. Nothing to do and no one to talk to..the other people in the same ward as I was were all severely mentally handicapped and I couldnt sleep as they woke me up several times during the night to monitor my blood pressure and all that.
No one asked me if I wanted to go to the hospital...they just called the cops and sent me off..the whole ordeal was a nightmare and the "Staff" was the most unsympathetic, condescending people I have ever seen. The last 36 hours have been a nightmare and I am happy as hell to be home.
I will never be truthful or trust any kind of therapist ever again. And I STILL havent talked to anyone about the things that were bothering me in the first place. I wil still see a therpaist but I wil be forced to manipulate them as honesty gets you in trouble. I was treated like a dog and I am pissed off but oh so grateful to be back home...
