- An explanation for why I had been gone for around 4 months. I hope that this video brings peace to anyone else who has been in this situation. I know that this is a serious subject, and also realize how personal it is.
Want to keep up with my day to day life?

Yo! What the heck are you talking about?
The distant relatives who had you comitted should pay your bill. They created the situation, they should pay. I also would never talk to them again. Thank you for sharing your story.
Don't pay the bill. I didn't. I didn't ask to be in the hospital for 5 days so I'm definitely not paying it. It will just go on your credit history for 7 years. It wont stop you from getting a loan.
This is why I don't want to talk to a therapist. I might say I'm feeling depressed and sad and then suddenly I'm strapped down and someone is pumping thorazine in my butt.
I couldn’t relate to your comment more, if you tell a therapist about your feelings, you probably won’t be held down or anything like that, but I understand why you’re hesitant to share with certain people.
@@joelhochhalter638- Psyc hiatry is crime against humanity. At one of the medicine Norimberg processes just after WWII all investigators came to conclusion, that mass mu rder in concentrate camps would never happen, if psyc hiatry them did not invent, organized and performed. Around 2013 they had to (court order) apologize for that, that was time when they last time updated they diagnostic manual. Holding someone against its will is breaking of basic human rights, if you did not breaked law (it is literally wrote in declaration of human rights). And yes, these things are currently happen around the world.
These bullshit shrinks are given WAY too much power.
I just found this video, and god, hearing the details of your experience match up with what I went through during my involuntary stay at the ER really hit. I am truly sorry this happened to you, even 5 years later. Those kind of actions can stick with you for life :(
spent 2 weeks in one. was tripping and drunk so I don’t remember getting admitted involuntary. the withdrawal was terrible. and you lose all your rights. very scary situation. time goes by a lot slower. they took my phone so you really have nothing to do. only thing to look forward to was the daily phone calls and visiting hours. this doesn’t even begin to explain how shitty these places are. dehumanizing is an understatement.
These places should be outlawed due to the fact that they don't give a shit about you. All they wanted to do to me is pump me full of drugs.
I'm so pissed off about mine that I am suing. These people overreach, and they need to be held accountable.
@@Caerdrys this just happened to me , randomly taken , wouldn't tell me why or who reported it, never had any history of being diagnosed with anything just randomly taken. they forced me to take pills for 4 days. planing to sue but i dont know how to go about it
@@leead5045 holy shit
We all wish there was a better solution but sometimes in a serious situation there is no alternative. My loved one was just committed and it was because their behavior was seriously dangerous to themselves and those around them. They have no idea what is going on and is in really bad shape. I wish there was an alternative - also my loved one’s perception of what was happening was clearly not reality. No one wants their rights taken away but if you’re an extreme danger to yourself and others - that what happens. It’s very hard to meet the criteria for involuntary so most likely those that get committed are experiencing psychosis and don’t understand what happened with much accuracy. It’s really sad and it would take the government investing in mental health in a big way for a better alternative to apear. I hope this happens.
Love the fact that this just makes them more depressed and have anxiety and scared. I would literally never forgive any family member if they did this to me.
I'm more sane than all of them
The false hope they gave you is a common practice to calm patients down. In reality, all it does is cause distrust, anxiety, and anger. It can also in and of itself cause PTSD.
It is wrong, and it needs to be addressed.
I was involuntary committed due to severe eating disorder and was strip searched and my belongings were all searched and invasive medical examinations. After all that I was told I had a choice either eat hospital food under observation in like less than 20 minutes or be given high calorie drink that tasted nasty like chocolate or vanilla chalk flavor or have it forced by nasal gastric tube thur my nose too stomach which was more painful then trying to eat food or drink the liquid. After each meal I was observed for 2 hours to make sure patients are not purging there food which at the time was not a symptom of my eating disorder and I told them that and my family told them that but they did not care. I also had forced mds that they made me take. Could not have most of my belongings will in phy ward. Last but not least there were patients in unit with me that would have violent outbursts and one time I got jumped by another patient. Horrible experience
I think there should be a reality tv show where doctors and people who work in mental hospitals and people who get people committed to mental hospitals should be in a mental hospital for a week and see how awful they are.
Actually though
I agree with you!
It's Storys like these that make me not want to tell anyone anything as bad it gets, idk what I would do
Thank you for making that video. I think it will help other people. I am 70 years old and was taken involuntarily by a social worker and nasty policeman after I had called the police two times about the man in my yard.
The police turned it into hallucinations and they added that I said I wanted to kill the man so that made the gave reason they could take me in. I road in locked back of police car.
I’m glad your experience was not too bad. I never signed anything, I was was never told my rights as I did not know about this type of involuntary hospitalization. They kept me there for over two weeks and had me on a drug that was literally killing me. With the 5150 now on my record I live constantly in anxiety that the police can do the same thing and just come to my door and take me back to that nightmare. I have no family to vouch for my side.
Are you dealing with this anxiety? What are you doing to help?
This is the type of thing that makes people like me afraid to ask for help smh
True Blue and it’s true
Indeed. I reported suicidal ideations, which I have never once realized and had completely under control. Some therapist I had spoken to for 30 seconds called the cops. A doctor who obtained her freaking med degree from India tried to commit me...thank god she failed. Those laws are advertised like they are super stringent and that NO ONE who isn't a serious danger to themselves or others will end up on the bad side of them. That is not true at all. People end up in psych wards for nothing all the time. That system is above the law, run by dopes with shitty third world degrees, and completely all-powerful and unaccountable. It is like something out of an Orwell novel. I am never talking to anyone about suicide again.
True Blue same ...
And this sucks. A big problem is this kind of thing is kind of the way that a lot of people "end up getting help". And unfortunately, it is *rarely* helpful. The cases where it can be helpful, are situations where much more clear risk of harm exist.
Very true after horrible experience being admitted against my will in the past. I don’t trust ur countries mental health care system at all
I’m only 6 min in, but wow your story hit home with me! When I was 21, my fiancé at the time ghosted me (we were together almost 5 years) and I found out he was cheating. I already had preexisting clinical depression and anxiety from childhood trauma. Drinking was the only legal way I knew how to cope. This could’ve been me. Easily. I’m so angry on your behalf about the woo woo wagon! Nobody has extra money for an ambulance and they could’ve easily let you get a ride from your fiancé! You’re right, it’s all about big pharma & money. Thank you for sharing your story.
The seroquel they gave you is actually an antipsychotic. People use it for sleeping off label which IMO is bad. That drug has way too many side effects to be using for sleep.
random but as someone who had to use seroquel for sleep. Your right it shouldn't be the first choice. But it can be necessary short term.
You have the right to ask about what medications they give you, side effects etc. You also have the right to refuse any medication you don’t think you need.
And, yet, when I was in the loony bin, they passed that shit out like candy.
Yeah antipsychotics can cause psychosis and hallucinations. So can antidepressants. Then they conclude it's your underlying disorder. You want to lose your life to psychology that's where it can go downhill real fast.
@@blazingbunny2976 That's pretty much how psychiatry works, in a nutshell. I'm hardly one of those loonys who rants that schitzophrenia and bipolar et al are not real phenomena and rants that people should taper off meds without consulting a physician or any such stupid. But, the way that psychiatry is practiced is so unscientific, it is laughable at best and dangerous at most.
Seroquel (quetiapine) is an antipsychotic with horrible side-effects. Even if you got a drug, informed consent laws require that you be educated about effects/side effects. Tricking patients is unethical.
Yes it is. These drugs are dangerous
Yeah, the whole being forced to pay for the ambulance thing is infuriating. My husband was transported 100 miles.
I was taken to the nuthouse back in 2003. Parents called the police and they took me there and I was locked up for 3 days with people who would bang their heads against the wall, always talking to themselves and constantly crying. After I got out, just a few days later they sent a bill for over $1,000 and I didn't even have a job at the time. Never did pay it and the "hospital" I was taken to closed down just a few years later.
I voluntarily admitted myself on 1/2/20, spent about two weeks inpatient and it really helped. I transitioned to a partial program and the prescriber made a medication change that fucked up my body so much. I’m now involuntary admitted and I feel so helpless. I lost all my freedom within a morning and I want to get better but this is not the care I need right now. Just needed to share that with people who hopefully understand
I would to hear more about your story and how you ended up there. I am about to do à form 2 and not sure if it’s a good thing or not. Please share more of your experience.
Thank you.
I don't believe a word you say
. How do you happen to have a cell phone
When you're locked up in the middle one they take all that away from you
You are such a strong girl! Keep your head up! 🖤
i had to go to a psych unit, i put on the best face i could and thankfully got out in just 48 hours after being admitted to the ER. Although there was a women who had been there for 3 weeks which sounds awful.
Putting someone in a mental ward for suicide is always wrong
I agree. I mean, I get they wanna keep the person safe, but also I would imagine that if you lock someone up who already wants to kill themselves they’ll probably feel worse
Sometimes I feel like the best way to avoid the hospital is too not be suicidal lol
They don’t wanna keep you safe. They want to pull pump, waive liability and make money.
I've been sent to 2 pychwards and neither time dis I receive competent help. I was suffering from severe chronic pain due to an undiagnosed hernia mesh migration. I prefer my own company due to being made fun of by my peers.
i was also held involuntary mental ;hygiene' ward. security guards held me down in my hospital bed and they now sent a bill
yep, I paid $2000 for a forced ambulance.
I'd SUE the bastards. Id try and escape that hellhole.
Chin Up ! You’re Beautiful inside and out!
I’m sorry this happened the Government is corrupt; as a result of this Iv sold my assets and liquidated all my USA investments
Thank you for posting this. Made me reflect on my own experience. Prayers that you never have to go back.🙏

Yes it's very sad you had to go through that didn't sound like you really needed to. My husband who is bipolar can never even get admitted when he needs to be admitted. He's not suicidal and there's never any room available because there are not enough beds. Mental health in this state of Kansas is totally terrible. Thank God you finally found a really good arnp, I wish she could have found him sooner.
I’m glad I came a crossed your video , I just got out of a 5150 a mother of 4 kids under 6 and it was the worst thing that has ever happened to me
Who committed you?
QuadrantBottomHalf a therapist
Seroquel is an antipsychotic that is sometimes used in conjunction with an antidepressant.
This happened to me. Thank you for sharing your story
Rights?! What the hell are those. I had a POS lie on me and have me admitted to the loony bin. Luckily I only had to stay one day once they saw there was nothing wrong with me. I wish I could press charges against the scumbag. I don't think I'm getting a bill but if I do I'm not paying it.
I got picked up my the police in Aurora, Colorado told my car is not mine and put in a mental institution for 7days. I need to sue someone about this, right?
Read the book Psychiatric Slavery by psychiatrist Thomas Szasz. Limitless Peace and Serenity.
I'm sorry your experience wasn't great. I had been very anxious for several months stemming from an assault. I had mentioned to my therapist that the 5 to 6 panic attacks and constant anxiety were intolerable. She suggested I go to the ER in the hope I would be admitted to the day hospital where you attend groups during the day and return home in the evening. I was never suicidal nor expressed such or a plan but suddenly I was "very vulnerable" and did I want to voluntarily sign in. If you dont you become involuntary so I signed.
The unit itself was not bad at all. I spent 7 days there and it was a unit for "higher functioning" people with depression and anxiety. We were even allowed our phones during certain hours. What was irritating though was that "suicidal ideation" was written on my discharge paperwork which I was never suicidal....so there's that
It is so hard to be put in the situation where you have to admit yourself or be forced to be put somewhere. It's almost as if there is no control, and it is absolutely terrifying. It sounds like you had a good-ish situation, and I am glad you did. I learned a lot from my stay, even though I H A T E D every second.
Sorry I just got back to you!
What’s the difference? If they made you involuntary, what would actually change?

It's not just about money....in the us firefighters-police-ambulance can legally take you to the hospital or ER if they feel your a danger to yourself or others under the law. It's designed to protect people who can't help or take care of themselves.
Why not make it free then?
No it’s not. You’re very unaware of the actual truth.
@@ebonyjohnson1580 No, she's really not aware at all.
What could you you do to get this off your record I was lied about from a ex girlfriend and she called the cops saying I was going to kill myself which wasn’t true and was forced to stay for 1 week. It felt like I had no rights at all. I was calm and respectful hopeful I would be able to leave sooner but was forced to be there. Glad I didn’t act out probably would of made me stay longer.
Man the sucks hope you’re better now
It sounds like a prison not a place to get help.
Kinda yeah
It's never help.they mess your whole life up
Looks like a lot of us have these terrible experiences w involuntary admission. It ain’t right. 72 hours… it ain’t right
I don’t always think it helps, it just locks someone up for a few days and they’ll probably feel worse
I do think the system needs work but don’t know if it’s up for debate
Was committed a second time after overdosing on Benedryl.
You are very brave. Thanks for uploading.
You are lucky it was only three days. You are very brave and intelligent. Good Luck.
What happened with the relatives that caused this situation for you in the first place if you don't mind me asking? Great video
Why you didn't refuse to get on the ambulance
That would have turned into a violent disaster. If you don't comply, staff immediately resort to violence & force-drugging.
what happen if you are 100% unable to pay for the medical bill when you involuntarily got in the psych ward? do you still get in trouble?
I appreciate you sharing your story, i was currently in a place as well, they definitely take your rights away after three days they make you sign in voluntarily if you refuse the psychiatrist would sign for you. It was definitely a lesson learned. Im glad you made it out safely and you look great 🙌🏽
I suffered the same and my parents and husband even as of yesterday called me crazy
I’m sorry about that, they should’ve been more supportive
I’ve been to the hospital more than once, it is stressful. It’s funny because they’ll let you go when your no longer a threat to yourself, but locking me up makes me wanna freak out more.
so i don't know anything about all this psych stuff, and i were wondering do they seriously make you pay for all their medical bill even if you choose not to be in the psych ward? cause if they do that stupid, cause you didn't choose to do it
I’ve been to the hospital, my insurance covered my bill, but if you don’t have insurance not sure.
I’m about to get committed and I just watch this and it helped calm me down thanks🥺❤️
Did you ever get committed
PEOPLE need to NOT OVERSTEP AND MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS
I'm not sure if anyone has said any about this, but the idea of, "alcohol is a depressant, so makes you more depressed" is actually a serious misunderstanding about both alcohol, and depression.
Alcohol is a CNS depressant. Depression isn't about CNS suppression. Alcohol isn't a good thing when using it as a coping mechanism.
I know you said that you decided to post this as something to help people. I'm not entirely sure what sort of help you feel this may be giving.
I guess maybe it helps people understand that their bad experience they have had, isn't really that unusual. Because I can sort of understand it being helpful in that regard.
I hate the name behavioral health hospital. I am a tea totaled. My brain is sick like someone with narcolepsy, not an alcoholic. I felt the group therapies were so useless because they were focused on substance abuse patients.
I notice that most people talk about their negative experiences while in hospital but they never reveal the diagnosis that they are experiencing.
What does that matter? Do you assume the validity of a person's story depends on their diagnosis?
Geez, I hope you’re doing the work. Kinda looks like you’re not accepting it well.
You are brave to tell your story of depersonalization at the hands of police state corporate shrinkdom. God bless you.
Wait until it’s been eight years you have gone through a lot in that place
Don't pay that shit. I got 26 of them bills. I didn't ask to be taken there so they going have to figure that out.
You really think three days is a long time? I was in a psyc ward for 6 months
When 3 days feels like a long time you know that 6 months would be hell.
Please share your experience
Ur just like me we can be very offencive when we're drunk but we understand the power of our words but there's no such thing of freedom of speech. Just because I was drunk they strapped me down and gave me a shot and I was out for two days I went to the psych ward for 2 days are they let me out but it was all a spiritual awakening
Same here I was becoming woke asf
You can't leave, you can't do anything.
Seroquil is an ANTIPSYCHOTIC, not antidepressant. I would know. I take it
psychiatrists are insaaaaaaaaannnneeee!
What was your diagnosis? You talked about everything but that.
Again...why does her diagnosis matter? Psych diagnoses are created by a group of (mostly men) that work for drug companies. They have no scientific validity. The people who developed the DSM diagnoses (literally VOTED them into existence) admit there's no science in their diagnostic criteria.
💕
You could escape when you was in er
I tried to.
They caught me
But I ran miles.
I would think it would be difficult
Try being locked up when your a kid it was jail treated like trash drugged i feel as i have snipits of memories like being strapped down and locked in a white room or just locked in that room oh and when they didnt have room i was locked in a closet with books that is what i know to be true as much as i would like to believe going would help me now or ever in the future ik it would only shatter what i have left not that i have been sane sens that hell but ya trust no one
I was first in the hospital when I was 12, it was scary
Keep away from them
Try on hauls soon?

Your cute
Ur beautiful ! No reason to get depressed. I would love to make u happy ! Remeber God loves u !
