Finally able to stop counting weeks and days.. Due to going IP over Easter weekend I was IP in a hellish place not my normal one, They had no beds at all..
Anyway I guess arguing with the incompetent nurses trying to give me insulin when I am NOT diabetic,, Had to argue with them on everything, twice the nurses tried to give me someone elses med... Was Horrific! I got so mad I wasnt suicidal anymore at the time. Waves here and there since , but I told my husband if I get bad...... duct tape me to a wall. I saw my T 3 weeks ago and tomorrow... His schedule is so packed he is finding ways to fit me in , He and I have been together 6 years.. So we are going to somehow get me past the horror that is causing this unrelenting PTSD Anyway thats my update on a " finally " spring Sunday

I was sent by ambulance to the other place 80 miles away... Im surpised they didnt try that straightjacket ( I would own that place right now had they) They demanded I take off my wedding ring that argument lasted almost an hour ... I have never been told I have to remove it anywhere I have gone and it didnt happen.... They tried to force me to use there personal hygiene products.. Just thing after thing that had me furious. Told me I could not have my book I took to avoid talking to people.. I said wtf am I going to do chew the pages and choke myself to death? .. But I spoke to the Doctor and voiced my obvious problems with staff and he said" this isnt the first time I am hearing this"  He had no problems discharging me less than the 72 hours.. I could not get out of there fast enough. Before I left I complained to the head admin for the nurses and sent a letter and a phone call to head of the facility about it .. I got the " typical we will look into it" blah blah blah. Im sure nothing was done. and more people will suffer at that place... Shame . Hope the place burns to the ground.

Glad you stopped counting. I think that means you're starting to heal.

I'm sorry it took a fresh nightmare to demin the old one. Sounds like the place is run by bureaucratic a$$holes who have no experience. Glad you were able to get out in less than 72 hours. I clashed with the pdoc in a place much like that and he threatened to keep me, I told him he was abusing his power as a doc thr eating to keep me just because we clashed and not because I was in need of hospitalization. Hope things get better soon for you.

72 hours of hell..I had to almost do 2 weeks....but it was an insurance cake walk compared to this. They wouldn’t listen to me when I told them I had alters...they just wanted their money and released. So sad mental hospitals are today...we are just a money cow to them. Smh.

I’m so sorry you had to go through that! Sounds like the IP I was in in November. Ridiculous. I’m glad you’ve been able to stop counting though. I’m trying to believe that everything happens for a reason (not sure I do but trying). So maybe it was a blessing in disguise that the IP was so terrible.

How absolutely ghastly grrrrrrrr
With my allergies and all (to almost everything) I have an absolute horror of hospitals and the incompetent nurses and their “one size fits all” garbage - apologies to the nurses who care - Quote:

I’m glad you were able to stand up for yourself and get the hell out of there.

I'm so glad you got out of there. I've been to horrible hospitals. It sucks! So happy you're back with your old therapist! Hopefully you can work through all the ptsd stuff.
Good to have you back posting.

What an experience. I've been in lock-up, or jail, if you wish, and it was way more dignified.
I'm specially troubled that this is happening to you. You have been of my most fervent supporters, and here I am, not being able to do anything for you. Hell, I'll pray. It will be a good sacrifice for me. Let's see if the 'Ole Man listens. Can't do much of anything else for you for now.. And if you think I can, please, PM me. Get well soon. You are very needed here.
