I was 'emotionally butchered' in an adolescent psychiatric unit in the 1990s. The place was all about delivering punishment, so we clients would conform to their 'image' of how a person was supposed to be. All I ever heard was how flawed I was along with my family which was BS. Being misdiagnosed and put on medication also contributed to what happened.
The unit psychiatrist was awful. What was she thinking trying to do psychoanalysis on teenagers?
I left that hospital profoundly hurt. The memories of that place still sting. This is felt beyond the client. My mother is also haunted by what happened. She admitted to me how helpless she felt when she witnessed me decline in that place.
I wish I could sue that hospital.
