36 hours?? I’ve seen people waiting for weeks. The system is most definitely broken. It’s such a depressing and terrible place to be. Im 17, I was hospitalized 6 times in the past 2 years. Once time they put me in the quiet room (a small room padded walls the whole deal) for 5 days with a 1 to 1. Only allowed scrubs, some paper/crayons, and I wasn’t allowed to shower with the door closed. It was dehumanizing and a form of torture no doubt.

My first hospitalization.. I was 12.. I was so young. I'm a senior in high school now. I plan on being a peds nurse. And I just look back at how far I came in my mental health journey and see that there ARE brighter days!! The fact that the ER is getting kids younger and younger with SI makes me feel for them.. And it breaks my heart. As a big sister myself.. I want to hug all those little kids so hard and tell them that they belong and that I love them so much. My heart breaks for all those kids.

It’s like torture and it’s like your being forced or it can terrorfie you cuz u think ur getting attacked harmed abused :which you are: or forcefully injected
I tried to hang myself when i was 9. I was mentally and emotionally, and sometimes physically abused by multiple of the orderlies and nurses, which just made me a misanthropic person. I stopped telling them how miserable i was so i could isolate myself from them, and only ever showed emotion when my family visited, when i begged them through tears to take me home. 10 years later, I'm still miserable and any shred of wanting help was destroyed. I'm not necessarily suicidal, but ive convinced myself that I'm better off alone so i alienated my friends and family, began insulting my friends when they tried to help me to keep them at arm's length. It made me a worse person all around, and I'm too far gone. Do NOT send your child to any of these facilities. Just do monthly visits with a psychiatrist, because these facilities don't help. All it will do is condition them to never seek help again. Some of these facilities are good places and do help kids, but is it worth the risk?
You're never too far gone. If there's one who understands you, it's God. We have a God who weeps (John 11:35) and will one day restore everything that was broken. I appreciate your insight about these hospitals. You are loved, and you matter.
I’ve been diagnosed with major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder and my drug use since my teens just made it 100 times worse which led to many anxiety attacks and depressive episodes. The absolute worst part of this is being housed with people who are actually violently psychotic so you have to be on guard at all times. The system is 100% broken I’m 26 and they tried to say they had to make sure my parents were okay with me being released even though for 13 days I showed absolutely no signs of any mental distress. They were just trying to keep me longer for unnecessary reasons.
Omg, I’m so sorry to hear this! I’m a senior and glad my life will hopefully be over soon. I can’t imagine being a child and knowing they have their whole life to live in this crazy world. Too much social media and bullies and crazy dysfunctional families.
Yeah, and the thing is, much of this can be mitigated by parents simply saying no and setting limits. However, we now have a generation of gutless parents who grew up with a cell phone in their hands and cannot imagine a world without 24/7 access to social media. If you don't raise your children, social media will!
Psychological trauma PTSD CPTSD Borderline Personality Disorder, is a crisis no one talks about. Child abuse is not something you grow out of. Many times it's complicated by other factors such poverty. People who have been abused as children are at a high risk of developing susbstance abuse issues and winding up in the criminal justice system.
Really unfortunate and stigmatizing that the first images are of restraints and tying patients to the bed. And that one of the main intervention they discuss and show is mechanical restraint. This facility is in the dark ages. There are so many interventions and ways to support kids other than restraining them to beds. Hopefully they get some training soon.
This is actually one of the safest facilities I’ve seen. Unfortunately restraints are used to keep others and the patient safe even if it seems cruel. When they’re restrained either meditative or medicinal calming techniques are used.
@@KateBudgets Many facilities have gone to zero restraint policies or to last resort restrainet policies. The idea tat hte best way to manage patients is through restraints is completely unnecessary and not best practice in any way. It isn't necessary at all. Demonstrates a lack of staff training on other ways to provide care to patients with psychaitric illness. Having a mental illness doesn't mean you need to be tied down because you are too scary for staff to talk to unles you are tied up. It is a terrible image to use as a introduction to psychiatric care or as a main intervention.
I got admitted to the psychward yesterday. Wasn't there long. But had a break in mental health. I got over it pretty quickly. But let me tell you something. Treating these people like they are cows in a farm to move through to the next place to be doesn't help. There are patients in there who feel like they get talked to for 5 minutes and then told to sit for another 6 hours, struggling in pain. Ignored. Who does that help? The staff are overworked, patients undercared for. It's really sad to see first hand. I was fortunate enough to be let out in about 8 hours or so, but to imagine being there for days on end waiting for hours at a time is heartbreaking. Treat these people like they are human beings. Not only the patients but the staff as well.
I used to work as a Intensive Case Manager. Most of my clients were mentally ill substance abusers. Many were also homeless. Through talking with them I found that most of my clients also grew up in an abusive enviroment. There are numerous research studies that back up my experiences. If we spent more money and resources on families, we could greatly reduce many of the ills that plague society.
When i grow up i wanna work at a mental hospital. I want to help people who a struggling mentally, and needs a lot of help. I hate the thought of suicidal people, bc you dont know what they're going through. I do have a friend that attempted, and it's just hard to think about. I wish everyone a great life and i hope you get the help you need.
In Connecticut, you have to get consent for restraint. I consented to the possible need of chemical restraint but I can’t be restrained physically due to my disability
The mental health system in the US is so messed up. I live in Germany and got admitted to a mental health hospital a few times and compared to what I'm reading in the comments and the video itself, my experience was very different and much better. No restraining unless a judge orders it and facilities that look much more welcoming. Also, the staff is always nice and they try to help as much as they can and people on open wards are even allowed to leave for a few hours at a time. I don't know about the triaging aspect because I never went through it but I imagine it doesn't look this awful and at worst takes a few hours. People usually stay a month or longer and get the help they need. It's definitely not perfect but at least it's actually helpful.
That room is nicer than the few my granddaughter was in. Our young children and adolescents are in crisis and hospitals, treatment centers, therapists cannot keep up with the demand. I'm in Maryland, we waited months for long term treatment after 3 years of in and out of hospitals. Suicide and self harming. Covid and cell phone usage, snap chat, tictoc, instagram, discord etc...has increased a mental health crisis to an extremely high level and there is not enough help. Adolescents and children are being cyber bullied, stalked, solicited for sex and no one is doing anything about it. Most parents are oblivious to what is happening until it is too late.
People should always remember these type of scenes whenever somebody cracks up or does something super out of character. We have the immediate impulse to just call them evil and send them off to prison (mentally ill people don't go to hospitals anymore) and forget about mental health or give a list of reasons why it wasn't that "made a plan/knew right from wrong". Stop trying rationalize the irrational and "common sensing" about what a normal person would do or what you would do.
and that psych ward will make them more insane.. which probably will lead to trust issues/higher suicide rates… kinda sad how their treating them, tho I’m not sad, I’m mostly angry, people need some common sense. How’s strapping gonna help your mental health?
Children don’t usually have psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar, they really should have the obligation to rule out ALL medical causes.
I was 12 the first time I was sent to a psych ward and I’m in the Uk so things are a bit different I’m now 13 and I’m currently sat watching this in a psych ward
Yes, the system is overwhelmed and underfunded. But there are reasons why our country is in a mental health crisis with at least 20% of the population on psych meds. This is what we have to figure out and act upon on the most basic grassroots level because otherwise there will NEVER be psych beds!
Nobody has any idea how bad these places are. Definitely not a safe space. I was lucky to make it out alive. The experience will tramatize you for the rest of your life 😢
I haven't been to a Psych Ward but this video gives me a few opinions at least what this video looks like to me. Tying and restrainint someone up can have the opposite affect. On top of a complete stranger to a child could be even worse. The rooms look so sterile, bland and looks very uninviting. And locking a child or anyone in general to a confinded space for hours on end without moving around or any nurturing contact can have a negative affect, making them feel more isolated and left out.
@@ASwegoalong Sure is ruined my entire life irreparably. I was falsely imprisoned in such a place at 7 years old. Everyone involved confessed decades later in front of a judge to lying. It left me scarred physically, with CPTSD, I was raped, tortured, falsely imprisoned and I'll never be the same. I'm fighting hard in court decades later. Which is costing me a fortune, and the rest of my life.
I’ve been in one at Piedmont Georgia and it was horrible. Honestly, being in one of those rooms is terrifying. I didn’t feel helped there, my mom and I just felt like we were being treated like animals in a cage. The system is indeed broken.
It was so scary getting sent to the ER pych room and then sent to the Psych Hospital in Velho California. It was so scary for a 13 year old so be stuck in a unfamiliar place with no family there and separated In a white room with only a bed in the middle and pads on the walls and door. Even though it was tramatic for me at the time, I know know now it was nesasary for my “At the time” suicidal thoughts and plan of action to end my life; it was the best decision for me even though i didn’t have a choice.
I had a brief panic attack. Spent 3 days in the ER waiting for a place to open up. Problem #1. Was sent to Waterbury Hospital for a week which continued making me worse. Problem #2. I learned to keep my mouth shut and hide my emotions better after that
You are very dedicated to the children and I like that and I do believe that thier is a reason for everything i truly believe God works in mysterious ways
I went to the emergency room back in September for suicidal ideations as they called it. They didn't have a designated psych room though they did have an aide to watch me. I was there for 24 hours before getting a nice room.
if u go to the ER dont tell them ur having suicidal thoughts they will lock u up in a room and ignore u for hours and hours thats what happened to me they treat u like ur a criminal
I've been in and out of mental health hospitals (22 now, been doing this since I was 13), and mental health places really messes with you. I no longer go to these places anymore because I'm mostly stable now, but I cannot help but feel like I do not belong in society, I'm just too used to mental hospitals.
I hate the restrains..people should not have them even though their dangerous people who have mental illness need help like me but it just not it.. don't do that..
It’s for their own good. Surely there are doctors that abuse their power but in most cases it’s used on very dangerous patients to keep them from hurting themselves or others. The doctors, therapists, nurses and other patients are people as well.
Idk why it bugs me when she says " so they don't throw tv's at the staff" Like it's just some job to them Just clock in clock out You need to have a heart To work at a place like that! People who understand need to apply And stop tying people to beds wtf
Nono, please, no. So far from most of the stories, people got ptsd, trust issues etc etc from mental hospitals, please no. Fund the good ones, yes, fund this? No. This video just sounds horrible
I am a one on one sitter in a hospital. There’s so much help quality and compassionate help needed in this field. I pray for these people and their families every day.
Never had an issue with mental health until recently. Ive been depressed and anxious but its reaching a point where im getting getting worried. Can i trust me with me?
Around 10 years ago, I was in the ER in Weymouth, MA. They were really busy, so they put me over on the kid side of the ER (it was separated into 2 different ER's, one for adults, and one for kids) ... they had an 8 year old who had been there for 2 WEEKS!
“When you die “ commercials air in Beacon NY. And since living in this corrupted city I have made 2 trips to the ward. And to this day. These deviant cowards still try and attack my mental
And I'll bet you anything the psych hospital didn't do much other than dope you up enough to get you relatively stable and then discharged you with little or no ongoing outpatient care.
Dude, I’m going there because I don’t know if I’m going there because I’m hurting myself since I was little when I was little I bit someone’s hand off, and I keep hurting myself
I had to stay in the ER with one of my kids for over a week waiting for a bed. I had 3 kids in crisis at the same time- I had two kids in side-by-side rooms for days, going back and forth.
@@blitzandchitzgaming2584I didn't abuse them. One has OCD, one has bipolar, and one is on the spectrum. It all just hit at once. Two of them are doing well at my house- one is doing poorly because her dad is an abusive narcissist and the courts work very slowly- and I can't get her out of his house yet. i'm working on it. I was misdiagnosed with bipolar for many years and spent lots of time going in and out of the hospital. Not one of those hospital stays, not one of those doctors, did their jobs and ordered an MRI- and it turns out I have a central nervous system disorder that was causing my "psych" symptoms. I absolutely know how horrible and abusive psych programs can be- and I actually think the ER is better for kids because their parent can advocate for them and stop any mistreatment.
@@SarafinaSummers My oldest got a vasectomy. No one wants to gamble with the mental health issues in our family. 3 kids with bipolar, one with OCD, and one of the spectrum. Had I known, I might have done things differently, obviously, but I am thankful for all of them. They are good kids.
Back in 2021 i went to the ER because i became suicidal and i had to wait for a bed to open up for several hours and then i had to get transferred to the other side of Birmingham, AL. I later learned i went to the best one i could go to which was St Vincents East. They still did double bed rooms but everyone admitted was tested for covid before they was let in. I'm 25 now but at the time i was like 22 going on 23
Yes because putting someone even further and isolated from life and people when they already feel disconnected and detached is the answer 🤦♀️😒 it’s so terribly sad how disconnected the medical system is from spirituality and nature which can heal all
You don't _HAVE TO_ RESTRAIN. You _CHOOSE_ CONTROL OVER LOVE. That's how ignorant our culture is to the human, emotional and spiritual needs of children. That's how utterly inappropriate the medical system is for attending to kids in psychic pain. Ands it's the same for adults. SHAME ON YOU. SHAME ON YOU ALL. May you endure your ignorance for eternity in hell. If your child is suffering, I beg you: find a shaman. There is nothing wrong with your child's brain. More likely than not, their parents are the ones who need therapy.
Yesterday my aunts son suffered adhd and there was a fight and he got all mad he push my aunt on the floor she was in pain so the cops knows what to do is arrest him and took him to mental institution in 3 days i am felt bad what I saw yesterday I was crying so hard that it hurts me so bad

it actually really helped me, i miss being there
So the moral of the story is don't get help for sucide as your treated like your committing a crime
Yup
Destruction of government property

You are right. There must be a better way to help people. I have ptsd from treatment like this. Dehumanization is unacceptable.

Restraining them will just make them feel worse.
You're correct
Agreed
It’s like torture and it’s like your being forced or it can terrorfie you cuz u think ur getting attacked harmed abused :which you are: or forcefully injected
@@N_the.undefined what is terrorfie? 😂😂 /j
However if you’re the staff member, it’s better to restrain them than just letting them harm you. But, don’t think they restrain them for long.
As a previous psych patient, it sucks
I hope you’re better now, I’ve never been to one, but I agree. It sounds like prison, hell maybe even worse?
How was it?
my stay was awesome
You shoud go back there
I tried to hang myself when i was 9. I was mentally and emotionally, and sometimes physically abused by multiple of the orderlies and nurses, which just made me a misanthropic person. I stopped telling them how miserable i was so i could isolate myself from them, and only ever showed emotion when my family visited, when i begged them through tears to take me home. 10 years later, I'm still miserable and any shred of wanting help was destroyed. I'm not necessarily suicidal, but ive convinced myself that I'm better off alone so i alienated my friends and family, began insulting my friends when they tried to help me to keep them at arm's length. It made me a worse person all around, and I'm too far gone. Do NOT send your child to any of these facilities. Just do monthly visits with a psychiatrist, because these facilities don't help. All it will do is condition them to never seek help again.
Some of these facilities are good places and do help kids, but is it worth the risk?
You're never too far gone. If there's one who understands you, it's God. We have a God who weeps (John 11:35) and will one day restore everything that was broken.
I appreciate your insight about these hospitals. You are loved, and you matter.
I've decided being close to other humans is waaaay too risky. Better to keep them at arms length so I can watch them better

I’ve been diagnosed with major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder and my drug use since my teens just made it 100 times worse which led to many anxiety attacks and depressive episodes. The absolute worst part of this is being housed with people who are actually violently psychotic so you have to be on guard at all times. The system is 100% broken I’m 26 and they tried to say they had to make sure my parents were okay with me being released even though for 13 days I showed absolutely no signs of any mental distress. They were just trying to keep me longer for unnecessary reasons.
Many of these kids have unhealed trauma. Restraining and/or isolating them could trigger and / or re-traumatize them. We need a softer approach.
No, they need to get tf off the internet,and social media and their parents need to stop being pushovers and raise their kids
@@kylem1112 i don't think you understand anything about mental health at all lol
Omg, I’m so sorry to hear this! I’m a senior and glad my life will hopefully be over soon. I can’t imagine being a child and knowing they have their whole life to live in this crazy world. Too much social media and bullies and crazy dysfunctional families.
The world period is f up
Yeah, and the thing is, much of this can be mitigated by parents simply saying no and setting limits. However, we now have a generation of gutless parents who grew up with a cell phone in their hands and cannot imagine a world without 24/7 access to social media. If you don't raise your children, social media will!
We’ve always had crazy families and bullies. just not social media.
Exactly
Hey, there were some implications in this comment. I hope you're sage and well.
Psychological trauma PTSD CPTSD Borderline Personality Disorder, is a crisis no one talks about. Child abuse is not something you grow out of. Many times it's complicated by other factors such poverty. People who have been abused as children are at a high risk of developing susbstance abuse issues and winding up in the criminal justice system.
Forcing someone to live is the worst thing imaginable
Really unfortunate and stigmatizing that the first images are of restraints and tying patients to the bed. And that one of the main intervention they discuss and show is mechanical restraint. This facility is in the dark ages. There are so many interventions and ways to support kids other than restraining them to beds. Hopefully they get some training soon.
This is actually one of the safest facilities I’ve seen. Unfortunately restraints are used to keep others and the patient safe even if it seems cruel. When they’re restrained either meditative or medicinal calming techniques are used.
@@KateBudgets Many facilities have gone to zero restraint policies or to last resort restrainet policies. The idea tat hte best way to manage patients is through restraints is completely unnecessary and not best practice in any way. It isn't necessary at all. Demonstrates a lack of staff training on other ways to provide care to patients with psychaitric illness. Having a mental illness doesn't mean you need to be tied down because you are too scary for staff to talk to unles you are tied up. It is a terrible image to use as a introduction to psychiatric care or as a main intervention.
I agree. I’d rather hurt myself than go to one of those places to be honest and I’m an adult.
@@KateBudgetsyou're wrong they tie you down and leaves you alone
Yh I get it but restraining them and the place looking like an old mental asylum will make them feel worse
I got admitted to the psychward yesterday. Wasn't there long. But had a break in mental health. I got over it pretty quickly. But let me tell you something. Treating these people like they are cows in a farm to move through to the next place to be doesn't help. There are patients in there who feel like they get talked to for 5 minutes and then told to sit for another 6 hours, struggling in pain. Ignored. Who does that help? The staff are overworked, patients undercared for. It's really sad to see first hand. I was fortunate enough to be let out in about 8 hours or so, but to imagine being there for days on end waiting for hours at a time is heartbreaking. Treat these people like they are human beings. Not only the patients but the staff as well.
Best comment I've read yet! The system's completely messed up, and it's growing more and more dehumanising by the day!
No
Omg that room make more person depressed😢
I used to work as a Intensive Case Manager. Most of my clients were mentally ill substance abusers. Many were also homeless. Through talking with them I found that most of my clients also grew up in an abusive enviroment. There are numerous research studies that back up my experiences. If we spent more money and resources on families, we could greatly reduce many of the ills that plague society.
When i grow up i wanna work at a mental hospital. I want to help people who a struggling mentally, and needs a lot of help. I hate the thought of suicidal people, bc you dont know what they're going through. I do have a friend that attempted, and it's just hard to think about.
I wish everyone a great life and i hope you get the help you need.
How old are you right now?
Acting out is an awful way to.describe a child suffering and struggling .very judgemental implies the child is doing it for attention
Yes thank you this is how I felt which is why I never said a word to the therapist when my parents had to be in the room
They are 😂

Thanks for what you do
In Connecticut, you have to get consent for restraint. I consented to the possible need of chemical restraint but I can’t be restrained physically due to my disability
May God give strength and courage to all rhose children, nurses, doctors, and workers🙏🏽❤️🩹✝️
That’s problem is because they have damage hart valves just have the same problem go to cardiology hospital to fix that.
I remember going to a pyschward just a year ago because i was suicidal.. i meet so many crazy people there.
Restraints is INHUMANE! i would never do that to a child.
If you're an adult they have a place for you in jail.
The mental health system in the US is so messed up. I live in Germany and got admitted to a mental health hospital a few times and compared to what I'm reading in the comments and the video itself, my experience was very different and much better. No restraining unless a judge orders it and facilities that look much more welcoming. Also, the staff is always nice and they try to help as much as they can and people on open wards are even allowed to leave for a few hours at a time. I don't know about the triaging aspect because I never went through it but I imagine it doesn't look this awful and at worst takes a few hours. People usually stay a month or longer and get the help they need. It's definitely not perfect but at least it's actually helpful.
I was in the hospital for 4 and a half days before I actually was able to get transferred to a facility

That room is nicer than the few my granddaughter was in. Our young children and adolescents are in crisis and hospitals, treatment centers, therapists cannot keep up with the demand. I'm in Maryland, we waited months for long term treatment after 3 years of in and out of hospitals. Suicide and self harming. Covid and cell phone usage, snap chat, tictoc, instagram, discord etc...has increased a mental health crisis to an extremely high level and there is not enough help. Adolescents and children are being cyber bullied, stalked, solicited for sex and no one is doing anything about it. Most parents are oblivious to what is happening until it is too late.
People should always remember these type of scenes whenever somebody cracks up or does something super out of character. We have the immediate impulse to just call them evil and send them off to prison (mentally ill people don't go to hospitals anymore) and forget about mental health or give a list of reasons why it wasn't that "made a plan/knew right from wrong". Stop trying rationalize the irrational and "common sensing" about what a normal person would do or what you would do.
This is so heart breaking.
Imagine what the future looks like when more and more kids are in need of a psych ward
and that psych ward will make them more insane.. which probably will lead to trust issues/higher suicide rates… kinda sad how their treating them, tho I’m not sad, I’m mostly angry, people need some common sense. How’s strapping gonna help your mental health?
Children don’t usually have psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar, they really should have the obligation to rule out ALL medical causes.
I was 12 the first time I was sent to a psych ward and I’m in the Uk so things are a bit different I’m now 13 and I’m currently sat watching this in a psych ward
No due process. Your rights are stripped from you.
Yes, the system is overwhelmed and underfunded. But there are reasons why our country is in a mental health crisis with at least 20% of the population on psych meds. This is what we have to figure out and act upon on the most basic grassroots level because otherwise there will NEVER be psych beds!
My love and prayers to children. Adults that have mental issues I pray u get the help love and support u need to maintain a happy balanced life
Nobody has any idea how bad these places are. Definitely not a safe space. I was lucky to make it out alive. The experience will tramatize you for the rest of your life 😢
I haven't been to a Psych Ward but this video gives me a few opinions at least what this video looks like to me. Tying and restrainint someone up can have the opposite affect. On top of a complete stranger to a child could be even worse. The rooms look so sterile, bland and looks very uninviting. And locking a child or anyone in general to a confinded space for hours on end without moving around or any nurturing contact can have a negative affect, making them feel more isolated and left out.
Oh my goodness these poor children, preteens and teenagers.
Happens to adults too it’s torture
@@ASwegoalong Sure is ruined my entire life irreparably. I was falsely imprisoned in such a place at 7 years old. Everyone involved confessed decades later in front of a judge to lying. It left me scarred physically, with CPTSD, I was raped, tortured, falsely imprisoned and I'll never be the same. I'm fighting hard in court decades later. Which is costing me a fortune, and the rest of my life.
If you have suicidal thoughts don’t answer you do they will lock you up in a small room 😢 it will cause more trauma
First question (Do you have health insurance)?
FR
the first time i went to the psych ward i was twelve and it was so dehumanizing
This violates your right to a fair trial AND your right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty under the United States Constitution.
Girl that seems like prison, you only get sent there if your fighting suicide but, yea.
This is inhumane. Restraints! Shame on you! There is no compassion!
This makes matters more worse
I’ve been in one at Piedmont Georgia and it was horrible. Honestly, being in one of those rooms is terrifying. I didn’t feel helped there, my mom and I just felt like we were being treated like animals in a cage. The system is indeed broken.
So, if parents restrain it's considered abuse..
It was so scary getting sent to the ER pych room and then sent to the Psych Hospital in Velho California. It was so scary for a 13 year old so be stuck in a unfamiliar place with no family there and separated In a white room with only a bed in the middle and pads on the walls and door. Even though it was tramatic for me at the time, I know know now it was nesasary for my “At the time” suicidal thoughts and plan of action to end my life; it was the best decision for me even though i didn’t have a choice.
The bed straps scare me.
I had a brief panic attack. Spent 3 days in the ER waiting for a place to open up. Problem #1. Was sent to Waterbury Hospital for a week which continued making me worse. Problem #2. I learned to keep my mouth shut and hide my emotions better after that
You are very dedicated to the children and I like that and I do believe that thier is a reason for everything i truly believe God works in mysterious ways
Juggling three knives as a roward
The system is broken.
I went to the emergency room back in September for suicidal ideations as they called it. They didn't have a designated psych room though they did have an aide to watch me. I was there for 24 hours before getting a nice room.
That ladys nasal voice does not sound like it would be very comforting to a psych patient. Js
Why was the police not called for any of the times I was assaulted in shepperd pratt? 🤔
if u go to the ER dont tell them ur having suicidal thoughts they will lock u up in a room and ignore u for hours and hours thats what happened to me they treat u like ur a criminal
What a nightmare
I've been in and out of mental health hospitals (22 now, been doing this since I was 13), and mental health places really messes with you. I no longer go to these places anymore because I'm mostly stable now, but I cannot help but feel like I do not belong in society, I'm just too used to mental hospitals.
I hate the restrains..people should not have them even though their dangerous people who have mental illness need help like me but it just not it.. don't do that..
It’s for their own good. Surely there are doctors that abuse their power but in most cases it’s used on very dangerous patients to keep them from hurting themselves or others. The doctors, therapists, nurses and other patients are people as well.
@@virp_alo It's not. Restraining patients doesn't help them. It makes things worse. It's archaic and plenty of places have moved on from it.
it took me 4 DAYS to be placed back in 2022 when I was just 15. I sat tied up to a ER bed alone for 4 days.

I've been in mental hospital three times. Once as a kid, two times recently as adult. It was really hard.
Around 10 years ago, I was in the ER in Weymouth, MA. They were really busy, so they put me over on the kid side of the ER (it was separated into 2 different ER's, one for adults, and one for kids) ... they had an 8 year old who had been there for 2 WEEKS!

I had to stay in the ER with one of my kids for over a week waiting for a bed. I had 3 kids in crisis at the same time- I had two kids in side-by-side rooms for days, going back and forth.
@@blitzandchitzgaming2584I didn't abuse them. One has OCD, one has bipolar, and one is on the spectrum. It all just hit at once. Two of them are doing well at my house- one is doing poorly because her dad is an abusive narcissist and the courts work very slowly- and I can't get her out of his house yet. i'm working on it.
I was misdiagnosed with bipolar for many years and spent lots of time going in and out of the hospital. Not one of those hospital stays, not one of those doctors, did their jobs and ordered an MRI- and it turns out I have a central nervous system disorder that was causing my "psych" symptoms. I absolutely know how horrible and abusive psych programs can be- and I actually think the ER is better for kids because their parent can advocate for them and stop any mistreatment.
Don’t let that other comment get to you. I’m so sorry you had to go thru that
All the more reason not to have kids. Seriously.
@@SarafinaSummers My oldest got a vasectomy. No one wants to gamble with the mental health issues in our family. 3 kids with bipolar, one with OCD, and one of the spectrum. Had I known, I might have done things differently, obviously, but I am thankful for all of them. They are good kids.
Maybe this has some correlation to your parenting?
Back in 2021 i went to the ER because i became suicidal and i had to wait for a bed to open up for several hours and then i had to get transferred to the other side of Birmingham, AL. I later learned i went to the best one i could go to which was St Vincents East. They still did double bed rooms but everyone admitted was tested for covid before they was let in. I'm 25 now but at the time i was like 22 going on 23
Yes because putting someone even further and isolated from life and people when they already feel disconnected and detached is the answer 🤦♀️😒 it’s so terribly sad how disconnected the medical system is from spirituality and nature which can heal all
You don't _HAVE TO_ RESTRAIN. You _CHOOSE_ CONTROL OVER LOVE. That's how ignorant our culture is to the human, emotional and spiritual needs of children. That's how utterly inappropriate the medical system is for attending to kids in psychic pain. Ands it's the same for adults.
SHAME ON YOU.
SHAME ON YOU ALL.
May you endure your ignorance for eternity in hell.
If your child is suffering, I beg you: find a shaman. There is nothing wrong with your child's brain. More likely than not, their parents are the ones who need therapy.
