The only "better" for "people" like that is when they're in a grave. He hid & waited for his mom to come home, which speaks to premeditated. That type of behavior doesn't fly in the US. If you take a life outside of a defense of self or others, you'll more likely than not going to do many decades in prison up to & including life without parole & death depending on the state & where victims were found. Watching this documentary just proves how backward Canada's thinking is, on many things.
I've been in a few mental hospitals or psych units, mostly through the Veterans Hospital. I have PTSD, MDD and GAD. Sometimes I overthink and ruminate. I get intrusive thoughts and start feeling depressed and anxious. I have been so hard on myself. I was recently in the VA Hospital in Murfreesboro, TN. I think that was the most helpful hospital stay. I got to talk with psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, chaplains, and social workers. I saw someone everyday. Hospitals are not fun. It is hard to admit that you have a problem. I'm so glad that I understood that my mental health was declining and saught help voluntarily. It was beneficial. I'm glad I'm home, though. It's can be a depressing place, but after a few days with the right medication and getting to know other people going through the same thing it gets easier. There were only two women and ten men when i was on the psych ward. But there are less women veterans. Both of us girls behaved. I'm 55 and she was 63. I guess because were olderand both there for ptsd and depression that we were better behaved. And it was not forensics. Different circumstances. I feel bad for the young woman with self harm and suicide attempts. She needs unconditional love. I'm surprised at how much things that they have access to. We didn't have anything that we could hurt ourselves with. We also had to wear hospital pajamas.
Michael Stewart might be the deepest person I've ever witnessed. There is NOTHING superficial about him. He's not trying to gain anything in my pov. There is no reward. No angle. No motive. No manipulation. Everyone has to some extent, an angle. Every one. Not Michael Stewart. I hope he can find a sense of peace. I commend his family and respect them immensely.
I spent time in 2 psych wards at 3 different times and watching this doc makes re-live my stance at those places and they're just awful places. I feel for these poor souls.
@@disf5178 Yes, these hospitals fall into a routine of "l'm just here to make a check and go home" consequently they grow numb to the fact that these are human beings that deserve their humanity. But the overwhelm problem is the lack of science on the part of the doctors, Psychiatrists are in the science of "Guessing" all they do, day in and day out is guess what pills they show use on the patients, Oh! that pill made you more psychotic? ok, let's try this one. And unfortunately they don't know the chemical ramifications of the medications they're prescribing to these pour souls. They don't understand the extreme and deadly side effects and especially the horrific withdrawal consequences of the abrupt stoppage of these meds. Especially the Benzodiazepine family of drugs. These are deadly. Psychiatry as a science is in it's infancy, but the whole entire medical establishment treats as a thriving science. shameful!
@@disf5178I am also interested in a response. What wasn’t right? My brother is in one right now. He has schizophrenia, but unlike Michael he is still dangerous.
I feel bad for all the patients. Mental illnesses are so difficult. You don’t want to believe your own mind but you can’t negate them sometimes. The negativity is so loud.
Great documentary and it is an eye opener too now I have a different opinion about mental health issues and feel more compassion. I wish these patients all the best of health!
I watched this before and it was so interesting and I kept trying to find it for 3 hrs tonight but couldn't remember what the channel was I saw it on. But finally found you again I real like your videos. There not just interesting they are very informative and educate you.
I feel so sorry for Michael. There was a documentary about him he was very intelligent in school love sports he was involved with all kinds of different Sports. Of course he ended up getting sicker with the voices a n d killed his mother. His family really loves me. I think Michael just can't forgive himself for killing his mother and he thinks everybody in the world knows what he did. Eventually he does leave and has his own apartment. And his family visits and takes him places. My heart goes out to him I hope he can finally have a wonderful life
He murdered his mother and needs to stay in a forensic psychiatric unit for life. They feel better on meds but that is just it. They quit taking their meds then they are a threat.
What's Disturbing aswell is Michael mother talking on camera on a beautiful Friday morning not knowing the worse ever terrorist attack is only days away 😱😢 Michael family are really strong sticking together and sticking with Michael ❤️💪
The woman is sick. She keeps trying to self-harm. It's really sad. She's fighting demons in her head. (Literally or figuratively, either way, it must be hard for her.) I feel for her caregivers. I know that she is challenging to work with. I still have compassion. Mental illness is hard.
I watched the doc and one nurse told a patient that violence brought them there. I put myself in a psych ward because my live in boyfriend was crazy and made me so crazy i needed a break.i did nothing violent. We were not given the luxuries that they had at Brockville. We couldnt go outside, we had cameras in our room. Fooling around with the opposite sex was allowed, like it was at Brockville. All of our belongings were locked up. Brockville seemed like a vacation spot compared to where i was. And they watch all your behaviour 24/7. I wanted out. They kept telling me i was thin and noticed i didnt eat a lot. I hate the fact that i had to constantly eat in order to get out. I wasnt in there for an eating disorder, anyways. They gave us all the same meds, which baffled me. I remember i brought my tea because i dont drink coffee. They wouldnt even let me drink my tea. We had every other drinks, though, but ive never spent the night anywhere without my green tea. That stuff keeps me alive and i needed it or else i couldnt go number 2. I was there on 2 occasions and the whole time i couldnt go, yet i had to eat all day while they watched me like a hawk. Brockville isnt as bad as the title suggests.
If so I found this: Above: Michael Stewart was charged with second-degree murder 12 years ago and found not criminally responsible. He lives in an apartment near the Brockville Mental Health Centre and must comply with strict rules imposed by the Ontario Review Board, including staying on anti-psychotic medication.
Sometimes people with mental illnesses need to be approached like children. The simplistic way of life and rules help them to stay calm (most of the time) and be able to cope.
I do not see this as a "Great Job" by the Mental Health Center. I believe people have rights too, and to be harassed to show the world about there information doesn't seem right to me. I believe only If the law Is just. There are serial killers, child molesters and rapists In there... Noone documents about those guys though eh, BECAUSE OF PRIVACY?! They could SUE the hospital?! Thanks Government. Give me a break.
Micheals smile at the very end was a tear jerker for me. I love seeing people do well and get better.

I’d say that’s evidence of the US being backwards, not Canada.
the way michaels brother talks about him and what happened is just beautiful. im glad he has such a great support system and so proud of his progress
Michael is a murderer.

How would you want to change them? Is there anything you think they do that doesn't make sense or that should be done differently?

Michael family are really strong sticking together and sticking with Michael ❤️💪
Thank you for sharing. Heartbreaking stories
omg, I feel so sad for Michael, hope he is doing better.
I feel sorry for his murdered mother. It could have been anyone, even you.
I wanted this documentary the other day. It was so heartbreaking. It must be the American version of Broadmoor.
Not nearly broadmood truth be told, I live down the street from it. Also, Canada not US
Wow….thank you
So sad 🙏🙏🙏 for all the family
Really remarkable. Quite a window into this world…
I like Michael because he’s handsome
Good luck to Michael. Very good Documentary. The women is not good, manipulative
The woman is sick. She keeps trying to self-harm. It's really sad. She's fighting demons in her head. (Literally or figuratively, either way, it must be hard for her.)

Brockville isnt as bad as the title suggests.
How is this documentary allowed with patient doctor and privacy rights confidentiality?
The privilege to waive confidentiality is the patient’s right.
Real talk
@@jessicamcguire6599 huh? "Real talk"??
does anyone have an update on him or if he has some type of social media?
Who mike?
If so I found this: Above: Michael Stewart was charged with second-degree murder 12 years ago and found not criminally responsible.

@@ashleydube1154 Yes I was talking about him, I really hope he is doing well.
Thank you!
is there an update on Micheal?
Not that I can find
@@healthandwellnessliving6618 me either, thank u.
Does anyone know Michael's last name?
Stewart
@@user-xg9jb3nz9v Thank you!
DallasRose---i think his name was Michael Stewart (hope I'm right),I'm just going to ask Google how he's doing in 2023..🙏🙏🙏
that male nurse did not know how to speak to her therapeutically...needs more training
I definitely agree
She is sneaky and manipulative
Stickers like a child
Sometimes people with mental illnesses need to be approached like children. The simplistic way of life and rules help them to stay calm (most of the time) and be able to cope.
