It’s insane that they make you, either you comply or they will force it. It’s terrible that people are they for help, and they choose to do this upon entry. I cannot imagine how people with ptsd from sa feel in that situation. It hurts to think about
"The chairs are super heavy so you can't throw them at people" bro I had a guy (13 year old) throw 5 of them at me and after that whole incident was done. I found out they were very, very easy to pick up like 13 year old me could overhead press them and I'm not that strong either the place I went didn't even have bathroom doors

It is best to try and avoid having to go in the first place. However sadly they will not give you a choice if you get admitted. They will surround you with 10 staff cut your clothes off and do the search. Not all of them do this but the ones that do are like that. I never went to one and never will.

My experience was awful. Children's psych unit in Alberta, Canada. The staff forced a strip search of all patients upon entry. They insisted on checking your nude body for contraband, and to check your body cavities for the same. If you don't comply with the strip search they WILL force it upon you. You're stripped of all your belongings, including your own undergarments (they give you a unit pair to wear, and no bras for the women). They even took my glasses for the first two days and I could not see more than a few feet in front of my face. I was on lockdown in my room for the first 24 hours as it was COVID times and it was required for quarantine. I was not allowed to contact my parents unless they visited in person, and I wasn't allowed visitors for the first week and a half. The nurses would regularly insult the patients in front of us as if we couldn't hear them. And they wonder why my second day there another kid has enough and got violent with the staff...

I heard strip search, and I started crying.... I can't do those, I don't even feel ok in front of my MOM I'm not even sure why, it's not trauma related, but I think it might be because I found out about rape and other things like that at too young of an age, so I get extremely paranoid about it

I was forced to put on a pair of paper scrubs in the emergency department once and remove all my clothes and shoes and put on yellow socks. Luckily I was discharged home after 2 hours.
the strip search and writing down all injuries all scars, then jumping up and down on the metal detector, then my parents dropping off snacks and clothes 😍
Hey uh, what happens if you need help really bad but youre a kid, your parents say youre just "over dramatic" and your friends call you stupid for it and you kinda want to make a sceene just to get help, cause you have nobody to talk to???
And mental hospital I went to said I was unhealthy because I was trans they tried forcing me to go to the chruch service and then they didn’t give a living shit that a kid broke a clip board and was holding me hostage they scolded me for not trying hard enough to get away from him so yea no not all psych ward are really convenient and helpful I have ptsd now because all stuff that happen there because they really didn’t care bout our health at the one I went too so yess some are nice and some are bad. Some of the staff people from old psych ward I was at was at a old mental hospital that got shut don’t from a law suit because one of staff at that hospital r word a bunch of kids and other staff didn’t report it so yea those staff shouldn’t have been able to go back into the field but they did
Ive been walked in to emergency for a throat infection n was asked do I think I'm depressed and if I felt like I'm not good enough for this world. I said yes and was taken in for 14days
Why do they call it a hospital when it’s a psych ward? I’ve been to one and while they claim it’s a hospital, we all know it’s not your typical hospital.
Its to f00l people. No one would be dum🅱️ enough to williningly go in or put their loved ones there should, Psych wards be homest can call themseleves what they truly are. Mental T0rture Place. Mental Hell. Pris0n for innocent people!
@@ambycarr1695 Yeah, one I’ve been to would never call it a Psychiatric Hospital. They’d just simply things by calling it “A Hospital”. They ditched the keywords.
Preface, this is not a light story. This is heavy shit that weighed me down for a long time before. It started with a call to the hotline in a very very low point. I had broken up with my girlfriend at the time and was devastated. I was get my shit together driving home in the rain, and before i knew it, i tried to make a left turn and fishtailled. I overcorrected because of some incomming traffic and i had ran down into a ditch over a power meter. By that point i was just beyond numb and tired already. I was just going through the motions with my statments with the officer and my ticket information. My grandparents were beyond worried about me but i just sort of played along. It was later that night when something really tugged up me to hang it up there. Thats when i made that god forsaken fucking phone call, right there with rope. The police had come and woke my grandparents up in the middle of the night, asking about me. I had to explain what has going on. Some more questioning and lights in my face, and after 30 minutes they confince my that im gonna be able to talk to a psychiatrist and psychologist. A psychcoanything to not make me feel this way. I decided to go with the officer whom directed me to a facility that they werent sure was even open. Sitting at this facility at 3 am, trying to hold my patience together was only getting harder. I wanted to just sleep at this point, but i didnt get a point to. After some backend processing, i finally hear back that thr facility i was brought to that doesnt seem open. Turns out, they werent open and i was brought there by mistake. Make it make sense i dare you to try. I end up later on that night getting picked back up by i can only describe as a taxy cab service. My recollection of events as i was slipping in an out of consciousness on the carride. I woke up by dawn the next day still in the car, pulling up on the facility that they had tried to send me to earlier. The driver walked me in, and i didnt do much of anything other than follow directions. They ended up puting me in the queue for admittance, but the wait lasted for a whole 12 hours, just sitting in the lobby, waiting for something to happen. It felt like an eternity. Finally i get called and i start following intake proceedures like you see in the video, but the feelings you had going in, was a savage horror. It was a living nightmare. They just directed me into a common courtyard with all the others being held there. I felt immediately stuck, stupid, and humiliated just by being there. The staff was soulless and completely nonreactive, as if to reinforce and gaslight me that i was insane or something. It wasnt like i was trying to get a conversation out of them, but knowing that i couldnt if i tried, or not getting the chance to talk to anyone normal again, that is what made me feel helpless. And now you have all these architectures to protect ourselves, at worst it felt like a torture, of which we werent even granted the right to choose the cowards way out. Notice how fast he skated past just getting you reintegrated, as if thats why i sought help in the first place, as if the purpose of going there was to just "get ready to get out". Believe me, Ive seen people bash they bodies into glasses, rendering them a bleeding mess. Ive watched a could fights happen between 'inmates'. I started off really hoping that someone would start talking with me about my issues, but as the evening eventually settled in and the next day came and passed, id lost hopes in that idea. I eventually tried to put together my best "this was just an episode gone too far" impression just so that i could leave. I was sick and tired of seeing blood stains and hearing others screaming and crying. It felt like an eternity, but phonecalls were made, and my grandparents again were there for me. Beyond anything, i couldnt have done it without them, i love them to death. I have rebuilt a lot from that time, but what an aw
The one thing i can garuntee is that if someone tries to force me to go there, i will be going absolutely apeshit. Always bm one of my hats is poeple thinking thry can control me to that level.
When I went to Prarie care in Brooklyn park cause they have a psych ward there they had for the bathroom for the doors they had magnet mats for the doors and for my 72 hour hold hospital i went to children's mn they had a doctor look at me to make the psych ward if I had to go to the bathroom they had me open it halfway so a doctor see me to make sure I am safe
Wait do they have woman workers watching you change if ur a woman and men if ur a man??? Because I’d personally rather have women watching me because we have a bunch of the same body parts and relate and men don’t.
was there for several days، they had to tie me up every night, gave me meds and a lot of said things were spot on. Im at home now and parents are taking care of my meds. Sometimes i wish im in a pysch ward again, it feels oddly liberating and calming being in there. The books they gave me were kinda awful tbh but thats one way to kill the time. I slept for the most of it. Oh and they took pictures of all my scars, thighs, shoulders, arms and hips. Felt a bit uncomfy but i didnt know what to do so i just let them. The doctors and staff were nice and sometimes staffs from outside the mental facility of the hospital would come over which i thought wasnt allowed but okay ig
nah somebody said that but they capping i been to ah forensic unit an ah regular one they jus search you make sure you don’t have strings belts n allat shit took my mcm belt i was heated 😂
This is somewhat accurate. Most mental hospitals I’ve went to have had curtains instead of bathroom doors, and a little more than half of the time they just let you keep the clothes you came in (unless for some reason you can hurt yourself with them)
They made me strip naked. When I refused I was told no one could see me, but there was a large window so literally everyone walking by could see everything.
I was brought in seizing on a stretcher after hitting my head. I had been cutting apples because I was eating lunch, and slipped on cooling butter spray stuff fell, with the knife in hand, and my mom thought I tried to kill myself
This is so true I went to one before (don’t trust your counselors kids they will tell everything to your parents and sometimes even the police) and I swear it was the worse that’s why I never ever telling my counselors anything about my life okay not telling them about my ptsd how I’m last stage of depression has anxiety and does sh to relive stress
I cant imagine myself taling off my clothes in front of people without crying and then findong out I have to go to a hospital. If youve had to do this I have bug respect for you but please tell me theu give you a doctor of the same gender.
It really depends. I went to an adolescent mental health facility in central Oklahoma twice and it was a bit different. I was allowed to keep my clothes, but during intake i had all of my scars (including acne scars and a scar from a dog bite on my belly) taken pictures of. Very embarrassing and humiliating. We could keep slip-on shoes that were searched before and after lunch/rec time, and we had normal doors.
Honestly the thing I hated most was them looking at my scars it was just traumatising.
Don’t cut yourself then bozo
I’m so sorry you had to go through that… no one has ever seen my scars and I would hate it sm if they did
I-.... idk what to say i-... im so so so sorry😭😭❤️

Wait do i need to get changed infront of them??
ya, at least the one i went to
Same reasons prisons do it sadly, becuse people are creative with their bodily cavities
Just say can i do it in the bathroom cuz i gotta poo too so i might aswell save u time
@@k9officerft434 well In prison they make you bend over and cough while naked 💀
I wasn’t ever made to put on the disposable paper scrubs. Everything else yes
I was forced to put on a pair of paper scrubs in the emergency department once and remove all my clothes and shoes and put on yellow socks. Luckily I was discharged home after 2 hours.
Heyyyy 1 question do they do anything if you have SPD and dont like the feel of normal socks??
the strip search and writing down all injuries all scars, then jumping up and down on the metal detector, then my parents dropping off snacks and clothes 😍
then my bathroommate was a boy and he tried to kiss me when i was in the shower! wonderful.
Is this sarcasm? I'm autistic so, I'm not sure so please confirm.
@@erikbulux4793 nope all happened, not pleasant 😭
@@evyyy.y no like the parts such as "😍" or "Wonderful"
@@erikbulux4793 yes all sarcasm i’m so sorry lol
What if you refuse to talk
They make you stay longer.
Hey uh, what happens if you need help really bad but youre a kid, your parents say youre just "over dramatic" and your friends call you stupid for it and you kinda want to make a sceene just to get help, cause you have nobody to talk to???
And mental hospital I went to said I was unhealthy because I was trans they tried forcing me to go to the chruch service and then they didn’t give a living shit that a kid broke a clip board and was holding me hostage they scolded me for not trying hard enough to get away from him so yea no not all psych ward are really convenient and helpful I have ptsd now because all stuff that happen there because they really didn’t care bout our health at the one I went too so yess some are nice and some are bad. Some of the staff people from old psych ward I was at was at a old mental hospital that got shut don’t from a law suit because one of staff at that hospital r word a bunch of kids and other staff didn’t report it so yea those staff shouldn’t have been able to go back into the field but they did
Ive been walked in to emergency for a throat infection n was asked do I think I'm depressed and if I felt like I'm not good enough for this world. I said yes and was taken in for 14days
went to a phsych ward in early 2024 ts was fun asl
Yeaaa no refuse refuse refuse
You have rights to sign yourself out and not take part in your treatment
Not if you're under 18 or suicidal
Why do they call it a hospital when it’s a psych ward? I’ve been to one and while they claim it’s a hospital, we all know it’s not your typical hospital.
Mental hospital
Its to f00l people. No one would be dum🅱️ enough to williningly go in or put their loved ones there should, Psych wards be homest can call themseleves what they truly are. Mental T0rture Place. Mental Hell. Pris0n for innocent people!
Psychiatric hospital
@@ambycarr1695 Yeah, one I’ve been to would never call it a Psychiatric Hospital. They’d just simply things by calling it “A Hospital”. They ditched the keywords.
This is the reason why people won't get help because of places like that and people like you (not all are bad but enough are...)
Preface, this is not a light story. This is heavy shit that weighed me down for a long time before.
It started with a call to the hotline in a very very low point. I had broken up with my girlfriend at the time and was devastated. I was get my shit together driving home in the rain, and before i knew it, i tried to make a left turn and fishtailled. I overcorrected because of some incomming traffic and i had ran down into a ditch over a power meter. By that point i was just beyond numb and tired already. I was just going through the motions with my statments with the officer and my ticket information. My grandparents were beyond worried about me but i just sort of played along. It was later that night when something really tugged up me to hang it up there. Thats when i made that god forsaken fucking phone call, right there with rope. The police had come and woke my grandparents up in the middle of the night, asking about me. I had to explain what has going on. Some more questioning and lights in my face, and after 30 minutes they confince my that im gonna be able to talk to a psychiatrist and psychologist. A psychcoanything to not make me feel this way. I decided to go with the officer whom directed me to a facility that they werent sure was even open. Sitting at this facility at 3 am, trying to hold my patience together was only getting harder. I wanted to just sleep at this point, but i didnt get a point to. After some backend processing, i finally hear back that thr facility i was brought to that doesnt seem open. Turns out, they werent open and i was brought there by mistake. Make it make sense i dare you to try. I end up later on that night getting picked back up by i can only describe as a taxy cab service. My recollection of events as i was slipping in an out of consciousness on the carride. I woke up by dawn the next day still in the car, pulling up on the facility that they had tried to send me to earlier. The driver walked me in, and i didnt do much of anything other than follow directions. They ended up puting me in the queue for admittance, but the wait lasted for a whole 12 hours, just sitting in the lobby, waiting for something to happen. It felt like an eternity. Finally i get called and i start following intake proceedures like you see in the video, but the feelings you had going in, was a savage horror. It was a living nightmare. They just directed me into a common courtyard with all the others being held there.
I felt immediately stuck, stupid, and humiliated just by being there. The staff was soulless and completely nonreactive, as if to reinforce and gaslight me that i was insane or something. It wasnt like i was trying to get a conversation out of them, but knowing that i couldnt if i tried, or not getting the chance to talk to anyone normal again, that is what made me feel helpless. And now you have all these architectures to protect ourselves, at worst it felt like a torture, of which we werent even granted the right to choose the cowards way out. Notice how fast he skated past just getting you reintegrated, as if thats why i sought help in the first place, as if the purpose of going there was to just "get ready to get out". Believe me, Ive seen people bash they bodies into glasses, rendering them a bleeding mess. Ive watched a could fights happen between 'inmates'. I started off really hoping that someone would start talking with me about my issues, but as the evening eventually settled in and the next day came and passed, id lost hopes in that idea. I eventually tried to put together my best "this was just an episode gone too far" impression just so that i could leave. I was sick and tired of seeing blood stains and hearing others screaming and crying.
It felt like an eternity, but phonecalls were made, and my grandparents again were there for me.
Beyond anything, i couldnt have done it without them, i love them to death. I have rebuilt a lot from that time, but what an aw
I don't know if the robes are just american thing but in my country you can keep your own clothes you just cant have anything dangerous
Been to one before now im going back their again lol
The one thing i can garuntee is that if someone tries to force me to go there, i will be going absolutely apeshit. Always bm one of my hats is poeple thinking thry can control me to that level.
I love the grippy socks 🫠
You can hang you self with everything bro
Clothing hangable sheets? Hangable
Question, i have glasses if i were to go to a psych ward would they take them?
they will put them in contraband when you go to bed, you'll get them back in the Dayroom
@@Jessica988. alrighty thanks
While deciding if someone should stay inside or go back out,what if somebody attacks you?
When I went to Prarie care in Brooklyn park cause they have a psych ward there they had for the bathroom for the doors they had magnet mats for the doors and for my 72 hour hold hospital i went to children's mn they had a doctor look at me to make the psych ward if I had to go to the bathroom they had me open it halfway so a doctor see me to make sure I am safe
"not scary"?
it seems scary/traumatizing to undress in front of someone
they give you a room to change, its a hospital not a jail cell.
@@loust1264 oh- from the way they made it seem, you undress in front of someone
does all countries have that? i’ve never heard of it in mine…
Wiw❤❤❤❤
It is as scary as you think, I didn’t know I was gonna go in a stretcher and be tied down to the stretcher with all these straps
True but it's very scary! Especially when your Police Chief Ex Fiancee puts you in there!
When I was younger, they didn’t allow me to leave until I said that I was fine with tears in my eyes.
Wait do they have woman workers watching you change if ur a woman and men if ur a man??? Because I’d personally rather have women watching me because we have a bunch of the same body parts and relate and men don’t.
I went to one cuz I let my intrusive thoughts win
was there for several days، they had to tie me up every night, gave me meds and a lot of said things were spot on. Im at home now and parents are taking care of my meds. Sometimes i wish im in a pysch ward again, it feels oddly liberating and calming being in there. The books they gave me were kinda awful tbh but thats one way to kill the time. I slept for the most of it.
Oh and they took pictures of all my scars, thighs, shoulders, arms and hips. Felt a bit uncomfy but i didnt know what to do so i just let them. The doctors and staff were nice and sometimes staffs from outside the mental facility of the hospital would come over which i thought wasnt allowed but okay ig
Why do people get send there? I’ve never heard of a psych ward, is it where you go when you tried to commit?
Yes
Or if you try harm others
You can go for either being suicidal or homicidal those are the two things I've seen in places like that
What if I don't know what's going on with me but I just feel like a threat to myself and that's the only thing I know
They take away all your rights and treat you like an animal
"take off all your clothes"
No. Nope. Not a chance.
Yeah and plus they’ll pass out and vomit if they see my body I’d keep my clothes to protect because the’ll need therapy themselves if they look 💀
“Its not scary” yeah well your the one who is treating these people now put yourself in their shoes is it scary now?
How many other patients are you usually sharing the room with?
Eh this is the PG version
Your rapper name is Lil and the reason you're in the mental hospital ❤
scariest thing ever.
This is a lie
What about underware
nah somebody said that but they capping i been to ah forensic unit an ah regular one they jus search you make sure you don’t have strings belts n allat shit took my mcm belt i was heated 😂
Ohhhh not scary 😂 are you kidding me lol.
OMG IS THAT THE GOOD DOCTOR
I was only admitted to the emergency Room
We can wear clothes without strings
I would rather die
Dii ok bc you have to get changed in front of them😨
Are we able to get are close back or not, and can we have some of our own stuff?
That police car though-
WHY DO THE POLICE HAVE TESLA CYBERTRUCKS.
WAS THAT A NYPD CYBERTRUCK?
Honestly a physic ward is worse then death
My mom threatened to send me wgen i was 11💀
Omg why?
I want to tell my mom i dont feel sane or safe but i am too scared
As someone who has been this is true
This is somewhat accurate. Most mental hospitals I’ve went to have had curtains instead of bathroom doors, and a little more than half of the time they just let you keep the clothes you came in (unless for some reason you can hurt yourself with them)
Reasons why I don’t tell anyone anything 😀:
I AM A SURGEON DOCTER HON
All all my clothes? Bc I want my underwear still 😃
They made me strip naked. When I refused I was told no one could see me, but there was a large window so literally everyone walking by could see everything.
I was brought in seizing on a stretcher after hitting my head. I had been cutting apples because I was eating lunch, and slipped on cooling butter spray stuff fell, with the knife in hand, and my mom thought I tried to kill myself
Police cyber truck
Ur underwear?
you can keep them, if you wanna keep wearing the same undies for unknown amount of time.
Grippy sock gang
As someone who’s gone many times this is not how it is. It is a LOT more traumatic.
This is so true I went to one before (don’t trust your counselors kids they will tell everything to your parents and sometimes even the police) and I swear it was the worse that’s why I never ever telling my counselors anything about my life okay not telling them about my ptsd how I’m last stage of depression has anxiety and does sh to relive stress
I cant imagine myself taling off my clothes in front of people without crying and then findong out I have to go to a hospital. If youve had to do this I have bug respect for you but please tell me theu give you a doctor of the same gender.
Do they watch u take off ur clothes bc I might have to go but I’m NOT going to if they watch u
👀 zest voice 🤔
I'm I going to be sent to one because I'm a furry?
You forgot something actually people can bump the head on a while and get a concussion. That’s something I would do.❤😂😂😂😢😅😅
It really depends. I went to an adolescent mental health facility in central Oklahoma twice and it was a bit different. I was allowed to keep my clothes, but during intake i had all of my scars (including acne scars and a scar from a dog bite on my belly) taken pictures of. Very embarrassing and humiliating. We could keep slip-on shoes that were searched before and after lunch/rec time, and we had normal doors.
Do you mind if I ask a question?
@@Selibeansss1234 not at all
so this is why i dont want to tell anyone that i SH.
omg r u ok? why do u do it?? i hope things will get better for u...
