Have i ever been restrained , you bet!!!
I was in my 20s in the 1980s and they still used Straight jackets, 5 point restraints and the padded room. I can't count the number of times I was restrained back then. Not to mention the amount of times I was chemically restrained. But I don't blame anyone but myself, I was impulsive and didn't always think things thru to the end. I could have avoided most of those times.
I was always treated well when I was inpatient no matter the type of hospital I was at or facility. I was never really hurt.
As I have aged I have learned not to take things to far and do myself a favor and deal with impulses with some wisdom gained from the 80s .
If anyone needs to talk about how to avoid restaints I am always around you can write me here or on my profile page or in chat.
