I had 10 hospitalizations that happened over a 3.5 year period, years back. I did experience some trauma as a result of that period of my life. I know that hospitalization periods were particularly bad, but in my case, I see it more as my illness that caused the trauma and not the hospitalizations themselves, though I know the opposite is the case, for some. I was dragged into isolation rooms at least a few times (the time is blurry) and injected and locked in the room for periods. I also had a period so bad that a guard sat out in front of my single room and followed me around the ward. I know that my worst episodes were at their worst when I was in the hospital. My thinking was particularly out of control then.
