Trapped in a Psych Ward: ‘I felt kidnapped.' New patient speaks after 7 report

- The 7 Investigators were the first to show you in February how patients have been alleging they were held against their will in psychiatric hospitals, or they say they were coerced into staying for treatment they don’t need. Since then, we’ve received hundreds of calls and emails from patients and family members with similar stories. Now, another local patient has come forward to share her story of how she says she was held against her will.

“I no longer trust medical professionals to have my best interests at heart.”
She is saner than they.
How many boosts?
I would feel much safer if she stayed in the facility - she looks very unstable.
@@hakimbandaru1915 What are you worried about? She's never threatened anyone with physical harm. Or committed acts of harm against others. Does she have problems? Yah. We all do.
I was 15 and saw a therapist. First visit she put me on anti-depression medication. It made me way worse and i tried to do something bad. I stopped those pills immediately (actually my bff at the time STOLE them from me in order to save me, cuz he saw how i was behaving, thank you to him) and just tried to self heal. Turns out all my issues went away soon as i left my family, of addicts and abusers. Something the therapist never even suggested could be the issue. I still have deep set mental health issues, but they’re manageable. I have a serious distrust of any mental health care now as an adult. Im scared to even seek help for my BPD or intense panic attacks.
If i get put on bad medication again it might be the last time i do anything. I actually just shed a tear typing that because it feels so likely to happen.

This is worse than jail. You get no release date - youve committed no crime. The doctor has ALL the rights - and he needs money. You are the source of income
You are right! Avoid nut houses at all costs! You have a loss of independence. You can count on verbal, physical, and sexual abuse. My ex-friend, who has some mental issues, found out about this the hard way. He told me that it was like a near death experience (NDE) where he spent some time in hell for a few days.
I mean ... In a lot of cases that is *exactly the same as being in jail/prison.*
I hear some family`s use this Act to gain access and steal your Inheritance
@michaelragusa5138
Making a blanket statement like that is very dangerous. If I didn't go to the psychiatric hospital, the times that I needed to, I would be dead. Literally dead, because I needed medical intervention... Not to mention I've known so many people personally, who psych words have saved their lives. Not all places are like this, and we've made leaps and bounds in terms of medical psychiatric care.
Leaving this on a top comment, in hopes that people will understand the nuance behind these issues, as this was not addressed in the new section. Since they just want to sensationalize this, instead of giving proper information that could actually help people.

This is the biggest problem, often times people are kept because there isn't a step down. People still need to be monitored, but they don't have a step down. (not speaking about this one.obviously clues something was wrong, since he was having residents fill out paperwork that he was supposed to be filling out), Other doctors I've spoken to are scared of letting somebody out, especially when they have suicidal ideation and having them kill themselves. They can then be sued.
Psychiatric care, and being forced into the hospital saved mine and many people I love,lives. Almost every single person in the hospital, doesn't want to be there. That doesn't mean they shouldn't be there. I think if we had more intensive outpatient, and partial hospital patient programs, things would be a lot better. Those step-down programs, saved my life. I was able to continue to get treatment, while working on myself in the real world. I wonder if there are a lack of places in the state, like that.
Even when Sarah says that she is not depressed anymore, and is no longer suicidal and would like to go home, that's not enough, in MOST cases.They have to show that you are no longer suicidal, through engaging with treatment But, the difference with her cases she actually had an outside psychiatrist. Which means she should have been released within 24 to 48 hours at the most. I went through something similar, where someone called the police on me to be punitive. I was released the next morning, because I was working with an outside psychiatrist at that point.
But in general if you don't have an outside doctor you're working with, and you've said that, they have to hold you. Then if you proceed to continue to freak out while you're in there, they're going to hold you even longer. Typically every time I've tried to kill myself in the past, I was always held for a week. The only times it was a little bit over a week, was when they could not find a step-down program for me. Which was necessary for me to be released. Plus the more that you ask to be released, instead of focusing on treatment, the more that you're going to hurt yourself.
There have been many times I've been in the hospital, and people are waiting on beds and that's why they're there. But this case seems completely different.
I just wanted to note, when there are times that things may not make sense to outside people, but the person actually does have to be held. Even if they don't want to. I don't want the field of psychiatry to be demonized, or for people to not trust psychiatric professionals on a whole, just because of this bad apple.
Just heartbreaking to me, that there's so many people I know in this comment section, who will not understand the context of this particular situation and will generalize things(as I've already seen). Which is very sad to me, I would have thought it would have been better if they had shown an example of when somebody truly needs to be held. Then people could understand the difference. It's a shame that the news organization didn't do that, and it seems like they just want to sensationalize things, instead of giving people the proper context....😢
People get punished for seeking help and you CANNOT change my mind.
absolutely!
Because they are the government who made you sick.
Every other time in world history when the people were unhappy it was called ‘oppression’
Now capitalism calls it ‘depression’ to blame the victims.
Oh yes…after I gave birth cps came to my door due to my prescription medications to do a wellness check…they asked me about ALL my prior hospital admissions for mental health. It didn’t end well for me.
facts... really sad...
@@FrannieMaeB5150 not being sane enough to keep yourself out of a mental hospital....sorta proves you deserve to be there....
truth goes a long way.
Medical gaslighting should be deemed illegal. That psychologist needs to have his license stricken, and the hospital staff needs government intervention. This act is 100% wrong!
Do you think crazy people know they are crazy? Every single last one of them will say that they are fine and don't need help.
@@thomgizzizthe point is, she had the right to legally sign herself out since she voluntarily signed herself into the mental hospital. A crazy person doesn’t voluntarily sign them self in anyways. Seems like she was looking for some reassurance and professional help because she knew she was having crazy thoughts about harming herself but she indeed signed herself in voluntarily which gave her legal rights to stop her mental health treatment. Same goes for a regular hospital, if you sign yourself in they can not keep you against your will, they have to allow you to sign yourself out.
@@thomgizziz when this poor girl takes the easy way out, everbody in her life will still claim they never saw it coming.
@@sarahmeris literally, only crazy people go to the loony bin....not mentally ill people, dont sign them self up for a mental insitutiton.
and, you are wrong....mental hospitals dont release you till they deam you are ready to be released...
if you go crazy and beg to be released. you will never be released.
a sane person understands, they will be let out, when they will be let out, and that will be determined, by the proffesiionals they paid, to determine, when they get let out.
this isnt the betty ford clinic. THESE ARE REAL HOSPITALS. not the places celebrities go to....
yoru comment, has proven to everybody reading this, YOU DESERVE the white coats to take you away....should probably go for another visit.
@@thomgizzizPlus, what they say is "crazy" is often exaggerated to make themselves more money. For example, this patient admitted herself for depression, and the doctor marked down that she was psychotic instead so that he would have an excuse to keep her longer and bill her insurance for more money. He would also pre-sign medical forms indicating that the patient was psychotic without even having a patient yet.
In my country (Canada), they have to take you to court to keep you in a hospital against your will, and it's quite rare for that to happen.
This should be a criminal investigation for insurance fraud. The doctor can be prosecuted, do some time in prison & lose his license.
There is. Just call insurance co and tell themyou were held and make dr pay.
This happens with every person. No point.
You are money. They do not care.
99.99% is insurance fraud
Along with falsifying medical records !!! Where is the licensing department???
@@rnupnorthbrrrsm6123 They always falsify the records to cover their tracks after a commitment.
You felt kidnapped because you were kidnapped, and that "Doctor" needs to be charged as a kidnapper.
Definitely.
JAIL For 20 Yrs for INS FRAUD !! .. Screw That Loser !
False imprisonment.
They will ruin your life forever
While I agree with you 1,000%, I'll play devil's advocate. Before the 1970s, all it took was a doctor like this to say you were mental off your rocker and you were institutionalized just like this woman was. Terrible, we all agree. The alternative is what we have today, where a large percentage of the homeless population is mentally unstable, taking over streets, committing crime, defecating on the street and causing all types of issues.
But again, in this case, it's clear the doctor found a nice little way to enrich himself and if it's proven that he never actually did anything to evaluate these people (with a second, independent person backing his findings), he should be thrown in jail with not release date given!
If you’re not allowed to leave and you want to leave you are being held against your will.
They can keep you if a judge signs off on "danger to himself or others".
When you tell the police you're going to off yourself this is what happens... would you prefer they just let everyone who says this take a quick nap and then be sent home?
@@eightlights4939 😂
They should put the doctor in a psychiatric ward . For being a sociopath
They kidnapped and tortured her. Then they sent her a bill for doing so. 💀
It is beyond torture what goes on in some of these places. First time had me really fcked up what they did to me. Second time wasn't as bad because I made a lot of noise drawed a lot of attention to myself before I was sectioned... First an last time being sectioned!
@@Aurian_Luna_Lou They helped you and fixed you. Be grateful.
They've been doing this for a long time.
It should have been talked about way more decades ago.
Yes. DOWN WITH AMERICAN HEALTHCARE
Make sure to leave a google review
This happens in every psych ward across the country.
It happens in Canada too! 😤
Was this ever not the story?
No it doesn't.
Yep. And they lie by saying “a judge signed you over to us” knowing you won’t /can’t figure that out.
You just give up and they look in your room as you never sleep and daily vomit. No meds.
Yep. Happened to me.
This is exactly why I do not discuss my mental health with any Healthcare worker. It will always be used against you.
If you’re looking for solutions, see if it’s physical, situational, or spiritual. Yes, we are an eternal spirit, but we do have a physical body that can have chemical, nutritional, or hormonal imbalances that can be discovered with a blood test typically and resolve with nutrition and physical activity. Situational distress can typically be handled with therapy including spiritual counseling, but truly spiritual soul issues, such as hidden trauma or even a demonized soul is very real. The simple solution is Jesus, but the spiritual process can take a lot of guidance, scripture study, and prayer. It’s nothing to be ashamed of even Peter’s mother-in-law had a spirit of infirmity. As a Holy Spirit, sooooo believer I often find people saying they don’t know why they’re telling me things, as they are trauma starts pouring out from deep within their soul or they don’t know what comes over them when they tell me, they don’t act like them selves. That’s because it’s not always just themselves. I’m now in special, if you want to know, the solution read scriptures start in the book of Mark then Luke if your a strong Christian, or Matthew and John if you need to start with the basics and get refounded on what scripture says that might be very different from what you heard from church. God is good, his solutions are accessible pray for the RIGHT help. God love YOU!
100%
so, when your mental health makes you no longer alive.
i guess thats a win for society? your family? your friends?
this is why i dont care if you off yourself . lying about your mental health to medial professionals has a 100% chance of never effecting you and everybody thats ever cared about you.
It’s not a lie.
Is it even private at all? …no
A medical provider violating someone’s rights? I’m not surprised
its clear, they are taking advantage of billing insurance by technicalities. They are not healers, they are stealers.
The insurance is in on it as well
@@Catchthiswaver Cops and courts too. There is no shortage of cops arresting people on invol psych as retaliation. Of course they deal with actually mentally unwell people as well, but it's like our entire system, healthcare, justice, courts, rehab, are all designed to make people regret seeking help. It's just punishment for profit.
P.S that doctor looks like a Middle Eastern Dr. Hugo Strange, which is not helping his case.
Exactly! If there’s no insurance to bill and no money to be made, they will boot one out in 24 hours regardless of their condition!
HOSPITALS ARE DEATH CAMPS.
Yes, I was in 2 different mental hospitals. They each kept me a week, which is all my insurance would pay for. The difference was the aftercare. The first aftercare help I went to was amazing. The second was a very bad joke.
When I told my psychiatrist that I was put in a different psych hospital a second time, he blew up. He knew I didn't need to be in there.
Imagine what it did to her mental health to have her dog at home potentially dying of thirst.
Poor dog
The toilet is always available 🤷🏼♀️
@@Angiekrainn If the lid is up.
I know thank God he was ok. They could have at least helped her secure someone to go feed the dog.
That's exactly 💯 what I thought!!! Omg
The lesson here... If you are suicidal NEVER tell anyone. Things will get way worse if you do. Locked up and losing your job to start with.
In Canada, the government will soon help put suicidal to death. Then there are other suicidal people locked in hospitals and drugged against their will. If you say you want to kill yourself in Canada you get locked up. But if you say you want the government to suicide you, they help you do it.
Pretty much. They're just going to chemically lobotomize you. Just BE SAD and grow past it.
Companies cannot fire a patient. That's illegal.
In Florida, there is a law known as the Baker Act. A person could be kept involuntarily and forced to take a variety of drugs until the doctor says it is okay for the person to be released if he or she told someone that and if emergency was called.
@@rscarf1where I grew up a woman repeated her story for years of how this happened to her because a neighbour she had no contact with disliked her or was sadistic towards her for no perceivable reason, and claimed that she said she wanted to commit suicide and kept calling the police and lying to them about her. She was grieving the trauma and no one responded to it. Today, maybe cameras would help disprove something, but evil people are sneaky.
He should be jailed for kidnapping and psychological torture.
She called the police because she thought she would off herself. They aren't going to release someone the day after... use your mind
@@eightlights4939stop. Just stop. This isn’t a devils advocate situation. This is highly illegal.
@@eightlights4939 Did you watch the whole video? They released her the minute it began being investigated and never even allowed her a lawyer. He had pre-signed paperwork and it’s obvious they only care about the money. She was just a way to generate revenue.
@@eightlights4939 did you even watch the video
@@eightlights4939 She said she didn't have suicidal ideation......
They held her for ransom, expecting the insurance company to pay the ransom. It's gross. Get paid.
Exactly, they know every day they put off that form is another $500-$1000 that goes to their business. Rehabs do the exact same shit and say you can’t leave even if you came voluntarily unless someone picks you up, and a lot of people come from out of state so getting someone to drive hours they know is unrealistic
She called 911 and said she’s suicidal….now she’s blaming the hospital for charging her money to keep her alive?

@@AngelaYaun you weren't listening - she was sleep deprived, not mentally ill.
@@elizabethbrauer1118 That’s not what she said. She said she called the police because she was suicidal. She got a good night sleep and next day she said she was fine. Mental illness doesn’t repair itself over 24 hours especially when you involve the police and say you are suicidal.
It broke my heart to hear that she's not permitted to go home to care for her dog while the poor animal was home alone without food and water. The woman said it's "unprofessional." This an understatement. It's not "unprofessional," it's CRIMINAL. The leadership in the psychiatric ward needs to be criminally charged!
Well said!
I had 3 kitty's home alone & a new "doctor" on pysch ward wanted to keep me, indefinitely!! I finally got to talk to the head honcho, and explained I just wanted antidepressants and I was released!! I will NEVER go back to "Crazy Jail" they are a waste of time and resources!! Plus they want to drug you up with unnecessary meds!!!

@@TVY2013you are very stupid if you agree with this person, I have no doubt in my mind
I'm so glad the dog is okay.
I admire the patients courage in speaking out against psychiatric abuse. She knew her long term admission was bogus.
Shit like this is why I will never call 911 when I'm depressed,, I'd rather die than be held in an asylum against my will.

if you are in therapy and never say you felt suicidal in the past they will eat that shit up real quick and call 911 learned the hard way during a good therapy session
@@OscarRodriguez-ze6td yeah closest I ever came to saying I felt suicidal was "at the moment I feel indifferent towards life, like I don't mind living, but I wouldn't mind not living either."

I don’t understand this. People who are violent and have mental problems are walking around free.

Sounds like a massive lawsuit to me. Sue the hospital. Then sue staff individually.
The facility was banking on her stay.
"It's not personal, it's business. Profits over all."

Fr fr. Cause theyre not doing this shit to the people who actually need it like those cracked out mfs living on the streets. Anyone who can afford insurance shouldnt ever be held for more than a week no matter HOW crazy they are, they were sane enough to get health insurance.
Very true.
100 percent. it is *_OPEN Crime_*
openly criminal behavior, & these doctors from countries of *iffy* moral conscience (motivated by dollars) are even WORSE than the western _White Collar_ criminals. bc they have *No Heart AT ALL* (being raised horribly)
they're just taking ADVANTAGE of the blatantly criminal WSTERN Biz culture
see: *_Dr Fauchey_* (or However the hell you spell his name)
NEVER tell any mental health place that you are considering harming yourself. Those are the magic words that will get you locked up against your will.
You go in your own free will they asked do you wanna go on your own free will. If not we will admit you. If you're planning on harming yourself you don't need to be alone
You can tell them that you are considering it and any good professional will not lock you up on that basis alone. You will only be sent to a hospital if you have a plan in place, and/or an intent and means to harm yourself or others in the moment. Then, the professional will attempt to have you go in of your own free will, rather than having anyone take you away. It is only when you or someone else is in immediate danger, and you do not want to help yourself, that people are supposed to be hospitalized against their will.
Some professionals jump the gun, and I'd consider those people to be unworthy of a license, but suicidal thoughts and depression symptoms are a common thing people see professionals for. If every person who has ever disclosed suicidal thoughts to a professional was hospitalized, we'd have far bigger problems than we have now, (and mind you, we already have significant problems in this field).
This is the worst advice I’ve ever heard in my entire life. You can be discharged with active suicidal ideation - meaning a plan, and intent to kill yourself. It’s happened to me.
There’s a difference between active and passive suicidal ideation. You can actually get out of the hospital with passive ideation- this will not increase the length of your stay

ABSOLUTELY!!
There's thousands of doctors in the United States worse than him, is the depressing thing about all this. And they work alongside good and bad nurses. The system reinforces itself while the patients are more vulnerable than they have been in the past fifty years.
Try talking to a normal person about this and they'll look at you like you're saying there are evil firefighters out there who start fires. They just won't believe you. Until it happens to them or someone they love.
He was probably following hospital procedure. By only firing one person and closing the case there you are allowing the rest of the corrupt logistics the medical system has manifested to remain as another bypass of accessory to a crime. We already had qualified immunity to excuse police misconduct and now hospitals can literally just conspired to systemically blame their employees for doing their jobs. This is insane.

You are exactly right, I will never ever ever. I’ll deal or not but never ever ever. The dr see’s each patient for about 5 mins each day sometimes every other day. They do not have enough time to assess and diagnose, they barely even look at you. The. You end up with diagnosis that are ridiculous.

Doctors like this keep you until your insurance stops paying, then kicks you out. This is standard procedure.
I was discharged yesterday from an inpatient psychiatric facility that I was forced to go to due to “policy and procedures”. I also have PTSD, was facing eviction due to financial struggles, and felt hopeless. I did not want to end my life. I did not want to hurt myself or anybody else. Held in the ER for 24 hours, forced to the facility for 72 hours and they were trying everything they could to keep me in there. It was absolutely traumatic. I feared they would keep me there for longer, I will NEVER seek emergent psychiatric care again-and I’m a Registered Nurse. This system is beyond broken and beyond repair.
But how did you end up there in the first place? Did you ask to be hospitalized or did someone call the police on you to collect you?

This is completely inaccurate. Some holds are necessary. If I wasn't forced into the hospital I would be dead.
Knowing this, why would ANYONE seek mental health care?
Exactly! I had to have a hearing by a judge who released me. I asked fir help. All the sudden a doc who never met me said I'm talking to voices I'm shy. Nobody in my life has ever called me shy ever lol.
It can be done without voluntary seeing mental health of own accord.
Because not everywhere is the same and some people get actual help when they seek it. 🤷♀️
This is an outrageous statement, I have bipolar disorder, I can be a danger to myself or more, without mental health care 🙄. Many other people are in this situation. What happened to her was atrocious but it doesn’t sum up the entirety of psychiatric care across the huge country that is the US. You’re putting all in the same box, it’s ludicrous and dangerous.
@@tristanbkr7332 I get what you're saying, but no, this is a very valid reason to be concerned. You can legally be abducted against your will, held by force, drugged and abused. It is a real thing, it does happen, and I hope to whatever God you believe in, it never happens to you.
That happens ALL THE TIME. If you feel suicidal, tell a trusted friend, not a psychiatrist or 911. They can imprison you and stuff your body full of all kinds of medicines against your will. Without committing a crime they can take your freedom and they make money doing it. The exact same thing happened to me and is the reason I will never again try to get mental health care.
Evil, dude should be investigated, reviewed and have license taken away.
Rule # 1 …..Never call the cops on yourself.
or at all...
@@sampicanonah, thanks but I'm okay with calling cops on noisy, drunk, angry neighbors harassing everyone around them. Especially if they have angry untrained dogs. I don't want them dealing with their marital problems for rest of us to hear all day and night. I don't want them blasting music all night. So, yes, I'm okay with calling cops.
Exactly! And the frightening part about that is when the actual sadness comes out, they ask you flat out in detail if you’re thinking of hurting yourself. They tell you that they are to be trusted and that they are there to help you if you feel that way. It’s so tempting to tell them how it is, but you absolutely cannot do that. I’m so glad someone finally did a piece on the corrupted psychiatric units!

And I hadn’t earned enough money in my life for 1,050 a month rent, so because it took from October-January I’m in debt to a residential treatment center adult foster care facility

They need to investigate hospitals in all 50 states. I was in one. My goal was to be there only a few days. 3 days went by and I was asking to go home so they marked me as involuntary meaning the doctor had to release me. They held me for 14 days. Every day I begged the social workers who would come by to help me. They never gave me any actual medicine that I needed. I would beg the doctor and he would say “hmmm I don’t know” so I just shut down. Stopped answering their questions. The nurses would gaslight me. I wish I could’ve filed a lawsuit or went to the press. I hope they investigate other mental hospitals.

Actually not. Mental health is a serious issue where your rights get flown out the window if they suspect you are a threat to yourself or public. It's definitely a bad situation and the wrong doctor can have way too much power and plenty of opportunities for abuse.

This is like a horror story come to life. Imagine being sane, but the people who know this are labeling you insane. Like that Shutter Island movie.
Unprofessional and disrespectful? No it is criminal and should cost the doctor their license.
In my country (Canada), it requires 2 independent psychiatrists to both agree that you need to be admitted - and even then, they can only keep someone for 72 hours.
Seeking help for your mental issues often leaves you more traumatized than ever. Psychiatrists are sicker than their patients, and I've never known a therapist that didn't have a ton of problems.

First mistake was trusting a psychiatrist to help you.
I gave up on medical care 10 yrs ago. Our system is there for the shareholders not the patient
Years ago - A friend living in Chicago went to a local "free" clinic to talk over her depression. The helpful counselor who was normally there was out for the week. She was not suicidal. She was not harming herself. Fill-in "counselor" involuntarily committed her to a different facility with which he was connected. Her boyfriend managed to get her out after 3 days. How? He pointed out she had NO health insurance. Neither did he. No one to bill. She was suddenly "free to leave."
So glad her boyfriend figured this out! This was definitely a smart move.

. Mental health workers are evil and you won’t change my mind. These people deserve justice
This explains why some people are terrified to ask for help. I would NEVER ask for help after hearing this story.
Yeap. Saying you are suicidal Def. Will ruin a lot of your chances with jobs. Never want that on paper. But it's also very important to find out why. Though this day and time. It's almost impossible to not mess up your natural flow
She was kidnapped and extorted.
Taking advantage of vulnerable people is vile. Thank God this woman was smart enough to defend herself and prevent others.
They charged her 16000 dollars.
Typical.
The police, doctors, media= all for profit
Even then, she only really got out because of media intervention. This is beyond frightening, and that "doctor" Nagy should not be allowed to practice any sort of medicine.
Once admitted, whether voluntary or on an eval, everything one says or does is interpreted as supporting the psychiatric assumption.
They are treated in a manner to elicit responses that fit the diagnosis. 2AM wake ups are just one trick.
My daughter-in-law successfully threatened legal action to get released once. It was a voluntary admission. The staff began doing things to get her to react. Then tried to get an involuntary commitment. They failed because she fought back.

Being baker acted is so bad. They threatened to sue me if I didn't pay (I had no health insurance and was baker acted by my therapist), wouldn't give me a written doctor's note for work, and I ended up getting fired. One of the male nurses kept sneaking in my room to flirt with me and would warn me not to tell anyone. When they discovered I had no insurance, they kicked me out with a BUS PASS!! A BUSS PASS!! I had to walk from the mental hospital to the nearest bus stop. They said they were going to keep me for THREE. FULL. WEEKS! Guess when they found out I had no insurance, they didn't care anymore.
It was The Vines mental hospital in Ocala, FL.

We can't even find beds for legitimate needs where I live. What the hell? They have all these spaces available to hold people against their will?
This happened to me about 12 yrs ago. A cop entrapped me, then the doctors there ripped me off of my normal medications and loaded me with Lithium and some other extreme stuff. I was in this ward against my will for 2 months hanging with people in a similar situation with a plastic box of magic markers, crayons and coloring sheets for entertainment if you wanted. Mind you, we were all adults. The doctors were also "busy," daily, so I couldn't discuss my release for sometimes weeks. If a cop ever asks you if you've had suicidal tendencies or suffer from depression, even if you are not experiencing it in the moment, do not say anything. You could find the one who will mess your situation up.
I was held against my will and involuntarily drugged inpatient for 89 consecutive days. This also triggered a 14 year saga of coercive outpatient drugging. In my estimation of evil Psychiatrists are equal to terrorists who have killed. I was eyewitness to a patient death due to overdrugging. I thought she was simply misbehaving when in fact she was drowning in her mashed potatoes. Staff watched and did nothing even after she stopped breathing. That happened the first week I was there when the psych drugs had me almost paralyzed with lethargy, somnolence, and confusion. The financial and opportunities costs have never been resolved.

This appears to be an insurance scam. The feds should be involved.
Oh they're involved alright, the feds work with these psych wards and help deliver them "patients". The feds aren't going to shut this down lol THEY KNOW. I was taken to one against my will, and they gave patients a wireless phone to call a family member to talk to them for a certain amount of time. I used it to call the police to try to get the heck out of there. They forced me to go back to my cell and wouldn't allow me to talk to the police officer I called, but instead a bunch of people came and injected me with something to make me pass out and go to sleep. The cops never spoke to me and I had to just keep a level head and wait for them to let me leave 2 weeks later.
That's "cute" to SAY, but in reality, the bottom line is that those "health professionals" opinions are "subjective".....just like one dentist saying "that tooth needed to come out"
They'd NEVER be able to "prove" said person didn't "need" to be treated 2 days vs. 5 days.....cause it's subjective.
It's scary AF, but that's just the truth ....one doctor says a pregnant 🤰 woman "must" be induced or c-section performed within 2-3days of the original due date.....another doc says "let's wait and see"

imagine if they let her out day one, and she walked infront of a bus. that woulda been A REAL LAWsuit, not one of these day time TV ones poepl are talking about
When I had untreated psychosis, I never called 911. I never went to the hospital for very short term care. I had to wait over 1 year to get accepted as a patient at a great local psychiatrist who is cash only. No regrets. I never realized going to the hospital could lead to situations like this, though.
I have a similar story. I am a Veteran with PTSD and TBI. I was having issues sleeping and went to the ER strictly to get help sleeping. They asked me if I was suicidal, I said no - I was just having issues dealing with stuff. The Psychiatrist told me: "I think you're suicidal. You wouldn't have came here otherwise. I can involuntarily commit you which will result in certain rights being taken away such as owning a gun.... or you can voluntarily commit yourself for 3 days and it won't affect anything".
Needless to say I voluntarily committed myself.... once I was "committed" i was unable to leave for 72 hours no matter how much I demanded, begged and pleaded.
I have not seen a psychologist since, nor will I ever. This happened in Michigan, as well.
Lock the Doc up! And sue all parties involved.
The evidence can be blatantly obvious.....and trust that there are those (even outside of that agency) that will go out their way to leaving you holding whatever they initiated and instigated in your life (as lies don't just up and magically state whatever claim). It takes a person choosing to open their trap, to lie and tell tales. When itnl comes to behaviors as such, it was practiced and purposely perfected before everyone here existed (well a high percentage of us)......and that behavior was not coincidental. For some, it doesn't matter who they throw under the bus. All it requires is someone needing them/coming to them.....and they will run a marathon with their stupidity. A woman once told me as we sat in Starbucks, that a lawyer friend of hers ended up committing suicide, soley based on what their psychiatrist told them. Maybe she was the psychiatrist that she spoke of.......I don't know. As her random need to tell me something as such, came across as odd. Folk be doing all type of shit, that once they've done it, it's obvious that they were clueless that whatever repercussions they encountered, would knock at ***their front door.

My French friend’s son would have been easily identified as ADHD and put on amphetamines if he was in America or UK. Luckily in the continental Europe, the teachers are not allowed to pressure parents in that way. It’s a normal growth. It’s actually abnormal to have an anal child with high “executive function” at age 10 or 13, or in terribly difficult and vulnerable teen years. That said, my friend’s son is hyperactivity didn’t cease, that’s how he is and he has been studying, skydiving, organizing student unions … no meds! He turned extremely successful, started his own business, got married to a great girl and planning kids. He is normal and very successful young man. Upbeat too.
God knows if he was tagged ADHD as in serious 🧐 disorder that “needs” to be corrected by meds, God only knows if he would be normal now?! I know plenty of kids who decided to get off that - pardon my French - crap meds because it made them depressed and they hated the fact that they lost their childhood’s beautiful creativity by feeling strung on drugs and thinking that something was wrong with them. Not to mention that having kids on “meds” was a step closer towards using other drugs. We are not all the same, our mental states shift depending on what’s happening with us and around us. It would be better to have reading circles with variety of literature without ideological thematics and open forum discussions on various topics. This would be a much better and healthier way to help anyone with mental turbulences (we all have them) than meds and faux diagnostic of one or the other “disorder.” Art circles work!

I was a victim of the system. After my wife passed away in 2021 I needed to talk to someone so I went to the mental health department in Charlotte NC. I knew something was up when the door locked behind me when they took me back to see a social worker. I just wanted to talk to someone but next thing I know s sheriff's deputy shows up and handcuffs and shackles me. I'm driven 2 hours too Raleigh, a hell hole called Holly Hill Hospital. The commitment paperwork said I was phycotic and suicidal. This was blatantly false. They wanted to keep me for 21 days. Like this poor lady I had a cat 😺 at home that needed tending. I got a hold of a lawyer at disability rights NC. The next day I was all better and discharged. It than cost me a 200 dollars Uber ride home.
They’re know around here for it. I was held there for nine days for nothing at all. That’s all my insurance would cover and they let me go. I know a bunch of people with the same story
Jeez, that place is notorious. They have a 1.8 star rating on Google but the top reviews are from patient 'families' praising staff for being discreet and protecting patient confidentiality. Yeah, cuz HIPAA you nitwits. Patient reviews state the place is a scammy lil hell hole that holds ppl hostage until insurance coverage runs out. It should be illegal. The fact the sheriff came and took you there is nuts. They likely got paid to take ppl even if they weren't a danger to themselves or others.
That's insane. It could have turned out so much worse. Thank God it didn't 🙏

There are lawsuits pending on them for a teenager dying in there "care".
