I need to explain something. In Australia we have the public and private systems. The public system is a disgrace and a place you would go anywhere to avoid. That is where the locked wards, major theft, assaults, awful food if you are lucky enough to get some, and other bad stuff generally.

Then there is the Private System. I pay a huge amount of money each month to ensure I have access to these hospitals. As I don't know what you pay and the conditions you get for that money I am not comparing. Just clearing things up a bit. Perhaps this is why my pdoc was so reluctant to send me there as it can be much more traumatic tham being heavily drugged to sleep it off. Still, I believe he made the wrong call and was luck. Thankfully, I am still here.

I am so sorry if I have offended someone. I have heard the mental health system in the USA is a disgrace in some ways. I am juts thankful for what I have.
