This friday its my six month check up at the mental zoo, why do i still go ????? wwwwwwwwell if i didnt they would put me at the bottom of the list and i would have to go through red tape again for years. Plus they like me im the timebomb they love to liven there day. I have a massive grudge against this mental hospital, they near on killed me, the refusal to believe my 12mg ativan a day and pumping EFFEXOR a drug i dont tolorate in me by some new shrink straight out of med school. He has been sacked now after numerous balls ups. my first few check ups were heated to say the least and security stood by has i ranted on the way they killed half my brain.They took it on the chin ,they had to they new they were wrong, if i rang today i could be seeing a shrink in 2 hours, anyone else 2 years , they screwed my big time and the no, my files are like top secret FBI documents if they ever got leaked they would shut the place. Nothing will happen friday just a review of meds, the odd cheap shot i may throw in about things like your has much use has an ashtray on a motor bike.. In hospital the best people are the patients %100 you get the odd one who is disruptive but most just chat in a haze of meds .food is great , free and as much has you like, coffee an tea 24-7 change you own bed sheets every day if you wish, you own laundry but someone may come in the rest room wearing your best levi shirt and swear its theres, getting to sleep is a ***** if on a dorm 2am is about the time they shut up .

Been to the MENTAL HOSPITAL today for my 6 month check up, I got a beautiful Indian shrink today she would be about 25 year old. She said are you still on SERTRALINE i said no LEXARO she said lex a what . I said EScitalopram she said OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO . Great isnt it when the shrink only knows the generic name of a med and not its real name. Next how is your mood, i said 50-50 she said whats it useually like i said 50-50 she said why is that. I said my med is fine but the side effect make it 50 -50 ok. MMMMMMMMMM well we have to take the rough with the smooth she says, i no that i said im just answering your question. OK she says we will leave well alone for another 6 months , OOOOOO by the way have you any suicidal thoughts ?????????????? well i didnt have when i came in, but not so sure now.

brilliant ! i think you must go to the same place as me...they sound sooo similar, only difference is the place i was in tried to knock everyone out at 9pm by insisting you take a sleeping pill, even when i told them they have no affect on me they still insisted so the first night i gave in and well after midnight i was still awake, so the following night they accepted it was a pointless waste of a pill!

This was just my 6 month check up i havent been in the zoo for some time now, it was out patient. But the sleepers has we called them are useless your right. I got to sleep after days when last in , by getting a day release smack head to smuggle me half a bottle of vodka , hid inside a avian water bottle. jungle warfare

what gets me is the mental hospital is next to the multi million pound general hospital that is in trouble money wise with overload of imigrants, the mental hospital is a seperate trust and in trouble money wise, OVERDOSE patients go to A-E at the general hospital first, if they survive a shrink nurse goes and access them and most times there out the door and on the street.I think to get in mental unit now you would have to walk in entrance and shoot 10 people then you may get in for 24hours. The only reason i go for my 6 month check ups its to keep my foot in the door. If i was to discharge myself my i would become mister nobody at the end of a very long que. THE LADY SHRINKsaid to me do you think it does you good the six month check ups, hopeing i would say no then she would say i dischage you then. But they near killed me in hospital and im making them pay and the no it. Has now if i had a crisis i would be seen that day at the hospital, bbbbbbbbut if i had discharge myself they would say tell him to see his gp first then get on the 2 year list. i am the master of my own destiny, screw them.
