Was in for bipolar mania. Patients were assaulting me, which is scary bc i am in a wheelchair most of time n can only use left side of body. They were withholding MOST of my ordered meds, even psych meds they put me there bc I wasnt taking like I should. It was very traumatic.....had nurses saying the worst things anyone has ever said to me & were physically coming at me & getting in my face raising fist wanting to punch me bc it was so bad I asked to call doctor on call bc was in enough pain where protocol is emergency room, they said no unless i quit breathing completely, no patient advocate was allowed, no security, & no 911. Among many, many other things.........horrible & accomplished nothing as far as why I was there, actually made it worse. Several of them told me it would do no good to report all this, they said would all just stick together n nobody would believe a psych patient over all of them, TRUE!!!!
