Hi, Now the waiting around for hours for someone to speak to you, I've got to agree that that seems "out of order". Maybe they were mainly focused on keeping you safe and waiting for the "right" person to be available to speak to you but I would have liked a bit more for you at a time which you were probably finding quite traumatic (?).
But I'm just wondering a little as to whether SOME of your other perceptions of of how people were approaching you may have been led by the psychosis, naturally a little paranoia might have crept in there?? Just a little?? I mean dealing with psychosis is ABSOLUTELY not easy is it?
I'm NOT at all suggesting that everything else was great, it is out there that ALL hospitals AREN'T perfect!! but maybe this was a very sensitive time for you, as it would be for ANYONE going through depression and psychosis.
Is it a possibility (in your country) that you put an admittance plan in place with your cpn in case you need to be admitted again? You know the kind of thing that details your problems with admittance and your support needs if you are etc. If you can it may not be initiated immediately when you're admitted (practically speaking) but it may be of SOME use.
But lastly, if you feel that everyone's giving up on you (which MIGHT be down to your depression/experiences as opposed to they have) then that absolutely doesn't mean you have to give up on yourself!! You ARE worth it!! So push for the help you need, you deserve it!!
