My first hospital stay was like that. I was with a lot of people from jail for the mentally ill. And they were creepy men. Always starting up weird conversations and following the women around. One guy flashed me. It didn't feel like a safe environment because the staff didn't care. They were mean to us. Holding cigarettes over our heads and refusing us coffee. It was awful.

BTW did anyone else get strip searched? That was the most embarrassing and belittling event in my life. I had to let them inspect me and my underwear.
