how can they lie and just take you away

[Coolsfancy]

on Thanksgiving day I was very depressed.

to preface this I had been in a car accident two days in a row. I was very injured from my car accident.

on Friday at 1:30 PM. There was a knock on my door and standing there were six people that told me that they were taking me to a hospital to look over my injuries..

so I decided to go with them because I was really hurting when I came to found out was that they took me to a mental lockdown facility. I was appalled. I’m not saying this to anyone that’s ever gone to a place like this however, I was in no way suicidal, nor did I tell anyone that I was suicidal to make a long story short I spent the day first in a room that had a bad and blankets and a pillow . I was admitted to the upstairs facility.

That was worse. I wasn’t allowed to have any of my belongings not even my Chapstick for my chapped lips. I really didn’t know what to do. I didn’t have anyone to call. Plus they wouldn’t let me use my phone. I had no idea how long they were going to keep me.

finally the second day t the Psychiatrist on staff came to see me. He asked me what I was doing there and my reply to him was you admitted me why don’t you tell me he looked over my file and he said you don’t belong here I’m going to release you.

I have had a major psychotic episode in the year 2000 and I was put in a psychiatric ward

Even that psychiatry psychiatry ward was better than this was. After I was medicated by actually had a phone interview and got the job.

to say that this experience shocked me is a a is a gross understatement.

I’m still having PTSD from this experience.

I saw my therapist after this happened and she was gob smacked about the episode I told her about

I do not know how authorities can lie about where they’re taking someone to a place like this, and lie about it.

I am not saying anything about anyone that has gone through this and really needed to help! I’m not putting anyone down for this

I’m just saying that I was lied to and it’s scary to think that this can just happen and there is no recourse.
