This sounds traumatic. Are you on a mental health ward? That doctor sounds very unprofessional.

Not all nurses and doctors are like that. Most really care and many have been through abuse / trauma themselves which should make them more compassionate.

I also know the other side - that unfortunately some health professionals can be judgemental and cold. I just hope they are in the minority.

Hug for you 🌺🌸🌼

I’m so sorry you had to go through that. I’ve been through it too, it’s like finding yourself in a nightmare, can hardly believe it exists. That’s what happens when people find themselves in positions of power over another...many times

in reply to Agara33

absolutely right...…….heard it time and time again when I worked the call lines. Have confronted the system ………..of course they just play their wall game

incredibly sorry profoundly sorry for what you went through know the nightmare or plural......they will get theirs when they cross over I assure you...…….

i'm so glad that at least some confirmation helps and thank you for your compassion. it is known that the psychiatric system is huge human rights abuser, one of the most dangerous places you can find yourself. -they destroy peoples lives, humiliate them in their society...i was there and i am not anymore thank god. at the same time the psych ward is needed in some cases and there can be a few good souls working there that can be trusted. so scary if the help you need can also destroy your life. sounds like now you are in a better situation? with some good support around?

You have had such a tough time, my heart goes out to you.

I had deeply traumatic experiences in hospital that left me with PTSD. I have recently been having EMDR for this and is it helping a lot. I thought I would have to live with and be overwhelmed by the trauma before I had the EMDR, but things are very different now.

I do hope that you find a way to heal.

Many people do not understand and do not care.

I’m truly sorry you went through such an ordeal, no one should be treated so badly.

But those that choose the path of treating others so terribly will get their karma in the end.

May you always know that it is okay to be who you are, and no one else has the right to judge you for you’re likes and dislikes and for being you.

This includes family, we are free to be who we are :)

True, My sister is married to a dr. He decided to choose psychology as his specialty... because it was the specialty where he “would have no emotional contact with patients, “ strictly drug related diagnosis and treatment. ! This is the opposite of what I would have expected if I had not heard it from my sister’s own lips!

Just the tip of the iceberg if you ask me. Most might be ok, there are those though, who have their own issues, to watch out for! Don’t be surprised when you run across them! Just trust your gut. They are not above the common man, just doing a difficult job, where they can get a king complex. Peace be to you. Trust yourself!

Omg Tk. U. Soooooooooooo much
