@mountaindew - They left a blood pressure cuff on me forever (or at least it felt like it) after I gave birth to my daughter. It couldn't have been that many hours, but it still sucked.

@raspberrytorte - Waking up with a breathing tube is awful. I had that experience after waking up from surgery to repair a perforated ulcer (no relation to psych meds/issues). The breathing tube was pretty horrible though I was in such immense pain, I couldn't pay much attention to the breathing tube. Even the morphine didn't put a dent in that pain. Plus, I was hallucinating a lot too as a side effect of the morphine. And I really thought that medical hospitalization was quite traumatizing until I had this latest psych hospitalization. The psych hospitalization was 1000 times more traumatizing than the medical one.
