The description of the hallucination listed on file was something I would never say and have never said in my life. I wouldn't even have been able to think of something like that. This happened at the former treatment center. When a nurse practitioner read it out to me I was floored and demanded they change it. I completely denied the alleged statement. She gave me a look as if she didn't believe me. Then she asked me if I was still hearing voices that were telling me to kill people and I told her I never NEVER heard any voices. Because she didn't believe me, I was hospitalized for 72 hours. During the entire time, I maintained my innocence and stuck by my swear that I never said such things. I have no idea who would have written something like that but it really woke me up to corruption in the mental healthcare system. So I left.

The new therapist stated that anything I say, which would involve harm to myself or anyone else would be used against me in that I would be hospitalized. It was her way of wording the warning in my favor. Still unsure how all of this works but her openness and honesty won some trust points from me.
