((((((((((((((bren))))))))))))))))!!!!
I have no idea who you are; but your story did "trigger" me to one of my more "desperate times" when just to get some damn help, I pulled a knife on my very "unfeeling, inconsiderate" T I had at the time...I just told him to get me help!!!I WAS SO DESPERATE for someone to really listen to what I was saying! The city police properly showed up, kicked me face down on the concrete (I wasn't even resisting!) Handcuffed my hands AND ankles together behind me & then tied them together and threw me in back of the car & I was taken to the state mental institution. I was carried in, hog-tied like the "prize pig roast", thrown on a cold mattress in a cold bare room w/ cameras, had all of my clothes ripped off me by male orderly's (talk about flashbacks!!!

)
I was left naked, curled in a fetal position, facing away from the camera's........sometime during the night one of the female orderly's tossed in a thin sheet............I just wanted someone to listen....to care.....
Jeez, Bren....
Man, I hope you get even w/ these....no, "getting even" is a child's game....

Are you o.k?? What's going on now? Talk to us, bren.....we WILL listen and really CARE to "boot" Please hold on, bren.....as they ramble on the tube..."I can feel your pain!" and I am so sorry that you had to endure those cold, inhumane tactics when all you wanted was some help........
Please be o.k.?!

((((hugs!))))
Peace to you, DAYZEE9
