  • How long were you there that you "forgot how to take care of yourself"? I've never been in for more than a week. Mainly because you're right and they don't do any good. So you just play the game. Go to group and say what they want to hear. I went for help (On my own, slight depression but mainly anxiety and some pretty fucked up thoughts). They didn't help, so when I was forced the next time I was out in 4 days because I played through the game they force on you. It sucks, but whatcha gonna do.

  • Howdy, I'm 16 and I was put in a mental hospital for attempting suicide by taking a shit load of ritalin, at the time I didnt know the fatal dose... its a lot. But anyways, while I was there it was shit form the start, I'm just as fucked up now as i was then, they even denied me any theraputic help after 3 days because they said i wouldnt take it seriously based on my evalutation... Don't even emit your kid into a place like that, all they do is hold them there. The food was kickass though. :)

  • its really such ashame these places dont' take care of people correctly.. it makes me sick to my stomach on how people are treated

  • It must of been difficult to put out this video..and I want to THANK YOU for bringing this front & center at last.

    query: could it be that sometimes when we think things are getting better, the reality is 'they' go deeper underground and become hidden and more sinister?

  • thats awful i just got out like 2 weeks ago wich was my 2nd time in one and it SUCKED nurses r evil for 1 thing, and for another, i cannot believe they really took ur clothes off!

    I was never restrained but i was dragged away by security and locked in a different room.

    Also i was never restrained but i witnessed another girl be restrained and i think sedated...

    btw i am only 12 and i dont think i will EVER 4get the awfulness.

    i still have nightmares.

  • Oh lord..............they are NOT all bad. I was in one 2 times one year and it was very calm and controlled. For a week! BTW they usually have the good meds. ;)

  • :'(

  • Mesopotamians (ARYANS) own all!!!

    We took out Samarians and pushed them to Egypt and out of Isreal? We conquered the holy lands and pushed into Europe. We even stretched far East?

  • The pills, mess you up on working out too. You cant give it all... like 200% when pushing yourself (100% is more than enough). It fucks with your head... well it did for me and I couldnt push myself in cardio.

    So if you want to take pills have fun and pill away alls you want. Some of you need to.

    Coming from the EXPERT!!! And yes I know the meaning of LIFE so dont fucking argue.

  • Im too fucking hardcore for this god damn country and too hardcore for mental ward obviously.

  • For real... I dare them to send her to one hahaha. Enjoy... I went to 3 of them. VA ones suck but hot nurses there. One in Vegas was actually nice.

    If you goto one, dont take the pills. Sure socialize amongst them if you want but I wouldnt goto any unless you really are that delusional. The pills make you gain weight, I already experimented on them. Slows thinking and reaction times down and fucks up your metabolism.

    Dont drink the koolaid. Capice?

  • I TOTALLY know where you're coming from! The flashbacks are so hard to get rid of sometimes!!! And it IS a hard thing to discuss with other people... Especially people who don't have a clue, or just plain don't care! I am SO sorry that all this happened to you! I wouldn't wish such treatment on my worst enemy!

    

  • You reacted the way mental people would in the psych. You hurt yourself, and you resisted with all your strength when they tried restraining you (cause you hurt yourself), and then you begin to scream for a nurse. If I saw/heard that in person, then I'd consider you mental & you'd even scare me. But they restrained you cus you didnt eat or watching too much tv? Then that is definitely messed up.

  • Psychiatry is NOT evil. sometimes it's hard to cope with reality. sometimes people need help. newsflash not every psychiatric hospital or ward is a bad place. that is just a stigma. i should know, i interned in one for 3 years. in fact i intend to become a clinical psychiatrist but my first round of treatment will be hollistic. some people don't need meds

  • Psychiatry is one of the worst evils in our history. It needs to go.

  • Psychiatry was bought here by the Communist party, something you'll see more of soon. It will get worse, not better soon. It's a clean way of disposing of people, sweep them under the rug so nobody sees what's happening. It's like what Hitler did, but cleaner.

  • I really feel your pain my friend.Psychiatry is pure pseudoscience which teaches force and control and is politically motivated.Psychiatry is racism and became famous only because of eugenics and drug companies are the only profitters.For more details on CRIMES OF PSYCHIATRY visit CCHR.com

  • Comment removed

  • I was tortured and my life was ruined by psychiatry at the age of 7.At a stage everyone discriminated me and even now my family is against me and supports the CRIMINAL PSEUDO DOCTORS.The so called psychiatric meds are POISON.After 16 i selfmedicated me with MARIJUANA which not only saved my life but also cured the mental illnesses and side effects caused by psy-meds which are life threatening.beleive it or not i tried to commit suicide more than ten times and still have scars caused by TORTURE..

  • I fully understand your pain. I have never been there but I have been told I would wind up there because of me cutting my rist and legs. I have been restraind in a diffrent envirement. I was in the hospital and I was loopy off of meds. I understand that but I dont understand the reason people with mental ishues are so dispised by the faculty in these hospitals. I hope your doing ok my friend. I respect you for what you have gone throu. Hope you feal beeter now!

  • Oh my gosh.. Im soooo sorry:( This actually made me cry, I never knew they did this to people in mental hostpitals, and why you were sent there wasn't even that bad to treat you that way. I feel so bad now, and I never even thought... A WHOLE DAY too? wow.. Maybe I am niave but Im really just a kid right now. Im so sorry, I really feel for you </3 I'll pray for you. And hope your doing better now <3

  • I just got discharged for about my 8th time now in 6 months.. not fun at all.. and i do know where you are coming from.. everytime i was down, oh lets strip her and see if she has anything on her,... glad to be out.

  • You had it good, being restrained with seditives...not that bad, it sucks but not as bad as it seems compared to the more fucked up shit that happens in those places.

  • Oh gosh, i hear you. I've been to the psych ward 6 times and this DOES happen. It hasn't happened to me, but i've seen it plenty of times.

    Now i'm so traumatized from being sent to the hospital after having suicidal ideations that i don't tell anyone about them anymore. I feel like I can't even trust my own therapist sometimes & i almost never tell her the whole truth about my suicidal thoughts when i do have them.

  • i will never surrender. thank you for making this video...

  • If i was going to a mental asylum i would put skin wax on my heal with foil & a knife so if they scan or feel for anything they wouldnt find anything wait untill i have my chance pull it out hold it up to someone & leave people in the time of hell use your thoughts to a way to hurt your hell giver then giving up on time of the year date of where ypu hurt at the sega sog of pushment im in the clan "Edonttnode"it means demons of pass nor the future kill if need to flesh on others to swim in blood

  • I was in a mental hospital in May/June of 2010, they strip searched me, took my cell phone and all that I had on me although I was allowed to wear my regular clothes. Still not a fun experience, very boring, completely non therapeutic

  • I remember my mental hospital stay... they never RESTRAINED me, but... it really was terrible. This stuff actually does happen, I've seen it. Almost had it happen to me... I hated it...

  • I don't think it's that bad, tv to watch, just hide any pills up in your gum then go to the bathroom and spit it out, go to sleep at 10, and pick the food you want off of a menu, though I live in saint Augustine Florida, they might have better hospitals then other places

  • so sorry for you. please get well soon:)

  • its true, when u get into the system, its hard to stay out

  • mental health is not a oke we are all brothers and sister under our skin

    i defy anyone to say that they are sane people need help we all do we need love and understanding we all do we need acceptance we all do mental health affects us all

    your mother your father your sister your brother ,wife husband its not a joke UNDERSTANDING is the key its the begining accepting is the answer

  • one of my thecers is trating to send me to a mentle instosen

  • even though i showed no symptoms of psychosis they used them for a treatment for depression, i was on 400mg seroquel XR AND 4mg resperidone AND 2.5mg Nulactil, as well as 20mg valium, including in the morning. i was kept in seclusion for 16 hours, no water, no nothing. just a matress on the floor not even a pillow or blanket and was told that i was 'pathetic', a 'hopeless case' and didnt deserve respect, i even had one nurse gossip about me to other patients confidential personal information

  • oh my god this video nearly brought tears to my eyes, ive had several admissions to an acute psych ward and a mental institution. i was held down by 4 male security guards while they took off my clothes (NO females in the room) and one of them had this dirty smirk on his face and i felt like i was being abused and about to be raped all over again, it was so traumatic.. and the nurses just treated me like shit and i was on so many sedatives (valium, lorazapam) anti-psychotics and

  • I've suffered from chronic depression most of my life (I'm 28) and it can be absolutely crippling at times, but I've never been seriously suicidal and I thank the Gods for that. I agree that there is something seriously wrong with our mental health care system, but if I ever got to a point where I might kill myself, I think I would take the risk and check myself in to the nearest ward because I don't want to die yet and I know that I'd be (relatively) safe there.

  • As an LPN on the Psych wing of our local hospital (US), I stand in proxy and apologize for the way you were abused and needlessly restrained. The way you were treated is shameful. Because you were suicidal, I understand why you were hospitalized. However, I have to wonder why they didn't talk to or listen to you instead of resorting to restraints. There is no way I can take away the pain and shame you felt and still feel. I'm sorry this happened to you.

  • I am terrified to tell anyone about how suicidal and depressed I am because I can't stand the thought of being put in restraints. I was sexually abused as a child and I agree, any kind of restraint makes me panic. Even my friends being stupid and handcuffing both my hands over my head to a chair scared me and they are people I trust.

    How can I get help when they don't offer it?

  • Sounds like the Navy.

  • i loved the hospital I was in

  • I agree with some of what you said and I am sorry you had to go through that.

    The part where you have to dress is humiliating but I got used to it. I have never had an instance where male nurse watched me undress though. I have been hospitalized many times but I followed the rules and the times I did rebel I made sure not to push too far because you do know what they will do to you. In America you go to the quiet room only if you piss off the nurses or cause a scene. I never had to be in there.

  • Oh and the reason that they were restraining you so much for such stupid things is because they get extra money, a lot of extra money each day for having a restrained patient. Sounds ridiculous but it's true. I guess they figure that a restrained patients is a special-needs patient, taxing hospital staff and resources more than the non-restrained patients. The entire field of mental health is corrupted by money, and when it's not it's bunk "science" to begin with, social control and nothing else

  • Psychiatry is criminal. I've experienced and been around stories even worse than yours in the U.S., yet whenever anybody hears that they just assume you must be a scientologist or an idiot because 98% of people don't know the truth about psychiatry and mental health treatment. They think neuroleptic drugs are chemical balancing medication, not brain damage inducing chemical restraints. They think that mental hospitals are nice, cozy places where people receive love and talk therapy.

  • this video made me that much more interested in being a psychiatric nurse. it seems like nnot a lot of people are doing what they are supposed to, and i hope to change that.

  • @emxilyhardcore You wont be able to make any changes. You will have many higher-ups that will set the protocol and hire the staff around you. You'll have no choice but to just do your job while you sit and witness, or go find another profession. Besides, psych units in the U.S. are intentionally terrible, even when they have lots of funds. It's to try to lower rehospitalization rates by making the living environment in the unit worse then that of the common schizophrenics environment.

  • This is why I sometimes think psychiatry is pure bullshit. Fuck mental hospitals! I thinks its better to see what's causing the patient to be suicidal, depressed etc than to just throw them into a stupid mental hospital.

  • Ouch i'm so sorry you had to go through that! :(

  • I loves the hospital I went to so idk where the hospital is your talking about I wasn't strip searched and stuff like that. Where the hell did you go?

  • this doesnt make me not wanna kill myself... it makes me angry and horrified with what they do with people

  • I spent 5 days in a mental hospital. it is jail with meds....no different

  • Comment removed

  • i was thinking of checking myself into one of these but my thoughts definitly changed after this video ...

  • ..... become, careless. STAY STRONG (you should listen to the song skyscraper from demi lavato) i know you most likely dont listen to her music but the song is about over coming you most fears and stuff like that.

  • i wanna go work in medicine, and work in mental hospitals BUT i would listen to them and try to help. I MEAN THAT, i really did cry from reading this. I can't believe that someone would EVER do that to some kid. i can't even discipline my dog when he pees on the floor. I hope that you can someday over come this. You seem like a strong person just from putting this up. I hope you do inspire someone to listen like you did to me. I never knew that's what they do, but that's what this world has.....

  • @princessangelfromhel I have known that they have been doing this for ages and throughout the world. They do this to destroy people's credibility; this is especially vital if you are their politic enemies! And yes, Canada has done this to right-wingers before! They try this when I was in elementary school. The good news is that the return letter I got from the senator scared the s-h-i---t out of them. Imagine a 10 yrs old kid, showing the envelope from a senator! :>

  • @zerobinary2 IM REALLY SORRY that happen to you>i really am, from the bottom of my heart!!! I hope i didn't offend you in any type of way.

  • @princessangelfromhel Na, its okay since you are the real victim here! Right now, the first thing you should do is to build up some credibility! Try volunteering in senior center or get in touch with some seniors! As you have gain some credibility, sell your stories to the party and pretend to be political prosecuted! :> Cheers!

  • Most secure hospitals in the UK would never treat people like that or they would be drowning in even more complaints than they already are. I have experience as a psychiatric nurse and (sadly) as a patient and nothing like this was ever went on, even with those patients that needed to be restrained. In the UK, it seems that the people we reserve the most humiliating treatment for are the elderly, not the mentally ill.

  • That sounds terrible. However, I was admitted to a Psychiatric hospital in England and I wasnt treated like that. I know there is alot of corruption in some hospitals, but it definately isnt the case in all of them. During my 3 months at the hospital I recovered well from my illness and I had a say in the decisions made about me. Yes, it was still one of the worst 3 months of my life, because there was no freedom, but i was not mistreated.

  • i know what youve been throught im still a self harmer been in and out of hospitals so i know were your coming from lots of hugs friend.....

  • i've been in psych wards i was never restrained or made to strip in front of people HOWEVER I completely believe you and support you i know this is true. if i hadn't lied and told them what they wanted to hear then i know things would've gotten worse for me because they just put you on drug after drug until you shut up. they tell you when to eat, sleep, shower, and even when to talk if you put a toe out of line whether you have a right to or not they will keep you longer and keep drugging you

  • Wow. I do feel really bad that ypu had to go through all that shit. It's really just wrong. I'm a self-injurer and have ALWAYS avoided anyone else knowing/finding out and especially going to the hospital (when badly injured) out of fear of how i would be treated. Now i REALLY have an idea of what it may be like. Really, just want to say i hope you don't go through with it ever again, and thanks very much for a giving me an idea of what may happen to me. Now i'm actually informed. :)

  • I've been to one when i was only three

  • maybe if u hadn't been crazy in the first place u would not have gone through all that... and i dont think a high school guidance counsellor could do that by their self maybe ur parents sercretly agreed to it becuz they also knew u were crazy..LMFAO

  • @liltunechi4 you know if something like that ever happens to you? I will say you deserve it, and will be Rofling.

  • Thanks for posting this. Im a teen and have been in to the same mental hospital 3 times in two months. The one I was at if you started yelling or freaking out they would get staff to dag you to a room with nothing in it by the nurses' station. Then they would put you on a restaint board.

    What hostpitial were you at?

  • Why did autistics often end up in mental hospitals? Because of people viewed them as stupid and often misbehaved, the government think mental hospitals is good for them. But people with HFA often felt that hospitals abused them and lose their trust and independence. That's why EI worked and chances to became successful in later life.

  • your brave honey for steppin up,and those basterds won nothing,if you dont let them win,your a beautiful person,with feelings,and thoughts,you hurt,and express yourself great,i worked in a behavior unit for 13 years,and my clients loved me,as i loved my work,stay the wonderful person you are,God loves you,he didnt do this to you,this was evil at its best,but you overcame,stay strong,im here if ya wanna write,best regards curt

  • I have been there 2 times! Im 12 and i wish i could go backi would do anything to go back

  • you should have shut up and did what you were told and they would not have strapped ur ass down maybe a little ect would calm you its only a shock do as ur told it wont hurt lol

  • its fuckin wrong bro. your right... i even been beaten in a mental institution for a little bit and the guy said he was following procedure. they even tied me up and i hated it.

  • (Part 3 of 3)

    If it makes any difference, I just wanted you to know that I was glad (in a grim way) to see this video. The accounts of your time in the psychiatric unit of hospital are, without doubt, painfully accurate. It is a sad truth, what you said at 1:15 (I think). But it is the truth, nonetheless. And you are representing so many who need that truth to be told.

    I believe (in) you.

    Keep on keeping on!

    My very best,

    A.M.

  • (Part 2 of 3)

    ..The things you’ve had to see and experience, the darkness you’ve come to know. While most will live a life “blissfully ignorant” of what you know, they will also never be able to see and experience all the other things that you will...

  • (Part 1 of 2)

    This is a precious film. I admire your bravery and am reminded of all the great people in history, from Abraham Lincoln to Vincent Van Gogh, who suffered from different kinds of mental illness and established themselves as heroes (and heroines) and created brilliant realities that remain unparalleled. You, clearly, are one of these people.

    It is a gift and a curse, what you’ve had to contend with...

  • @Firefly90808 *by “(Part 1 of 2),” I meant “(Part 1 of 3).”

  • You are a brave soul and a survivor.Thanks for sharing your experience with others. The truth about these hellholes needs to be aired. I have been through the same horrifying experiences in some of the worse dungeons. These places attract many sociopaths and sadists; they use the patients to act out their own sicknesses. We should not forget those who are still suffering and locked away.

  • The worst experience I've been through was in a children's psych. hospital when I was younger. I was acting up because I didn't want to watch this movie so they took me to the time out room. I got a needle in my ass (Keep in mind I was like 9 years old) and woke up an hour or two later, freaked out a bit, then I begged to be let out because I had to go to the bathroom and they ignored me, which led to me crapping my pants and having to stay in those soiled linens for another 20 minutes.

  • I've been to a psych. hospital and thankfully it wasn't as bad as the one you went too. The only bad thing I've heard was when a patient was acting out, they brought her to the time out room and did the typical needle in butt and stripped her clothes off. I saw a group of male staff gathered around the security cameras at the nurses station watching and laughing/smiling and another patient told me they were spying on the naked patient who had just woken up from the shot.

  • I risk many mental illnesses from my dad's side and have had a fear of them for a long time.

  • You all fail to realise how many of these hospitals have prevented suicides and the fact that NOT ALL PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITALS ARE LIKE THE ONE YOU HAVE PEOPLE PICTURING.

  • because im emo i have been there many times due to me wanting to kill myself, i feel your pain

  • If I could "like" this 1000x I would!

    I've been there, and work hard to never let it happen again.

    Sadly, only because I know real help will never come, especially from them.

  • I agree. I have been through hell between hospitals & treatment centers since I was a kid. for anger depression, ocd, or whatever else the doctors say I have to prescribe meds to add on to their pay checks. I have seen all of this. They strap you to a bed and let you lie their. if you get lucky some hospitals will even have a staff member sit outside your door and take a few notes on you like if your breathing and awake every 15 minutes or half an hour.Not easy. but i had to move on from it.

  • hi. im very very shocked to hear about what u have been trough.

    - i dont know what to say, im just glad u got out of there and hope its going forward for you. 

    good luck.

  • okay, ive been to a mental hospital 2 times and its not bad at all. maybe because it was a hospital for teens but they let us wear jeans and shit and we got to color on weekends. we got good food and got to go outside and play basketball and listen to music. sure they make us watch videos on meth and shit but they take good good care of you i love the people there

  • I can totally relate. When I was 14, my mom tricked me into going to one of those facilities because in a fit of anger, I threatened suicide. I was in there for over 4 months, and they wanted to keep me in there longer because my mom had good insurance, but thankfully she had them release me. But it did change my life because of the things they did in there (i.e. strapping naked kids, spread eagle to a bed that was bolted to the floor), and those memories will forever be etched in my mind.

  • This is 100% true the government is covering it up do not listen to the dang government officials trying to hide it all ... worst time of my life ever in there ... 3 weeks!

  • were u ever sexually assaulted?

  • Comment removed

  • @Alphieboy wow really crazy people nice labeling you jerk

  • Wards suck. They force drugs on you even when your mentally competant. They're drugs cause nothing but harmful affects to people physically and mentally. Not to mention how they isolate people only further worsening one's mental condition. The bottom line is that they're government run facilities, working for government funded markets. These people may work for the goverment but only care and govern themselves. They don't care how everyone's tax money is spent or how it affects public lives.

  • damn, felt so quezzy in my stomach when i read the geing stuck in restraints. must have been hard. :(

  • I'm sorry about what happened to you.

  • they really are just zz murders they tortured me for years telling, yes telling me i was nothing to make me killmyself i did suceed once but came back to life naturally i feel god picked me back up to live then i realized people drove the air planes into the world trade center to wake people up from thier evil slautery spell they are evil and they make people suiside bomb all the time then go hurt people in Iran, suposivly, they probably really do i hate what they do to the little kids autism,no

  • a school counseler shoudnt even be able to admit someone to a asylum. thats just wrong. im sorry u werent threw that cause of her. to think she thinks she helped u is even more screwed up :'(

  • Yeah right TC. How about next time time you go there you don't fight them? Stop being overdramatic, it's not that hard if that's the case. You only need to fear restraintments if you're in serious trouble, which you probably werent't.

  • wow, this the MOST honest video about those wards I have ever seen! You are very brave about making this video.I still don't understand why you would be institutionalized, because I used to be depressed myself, and I only got a therapist !! HANK YOU so much for making this video!!

  • after watching this i would never think of hospital the same cause its sad what the doctors would do to you ive never been to one but after reading all these comments and watching the video it feels like i just got back

  • i wanna become a psychicatrist only to help people for some reason this kinda stuff is intresting i just dont believe in tourtor you should listen to what patients have to say

  • I remember-

    The 'doctor' really freaked me out from the start. He diagnosed me with 'mild' depression, but get this- tried to give me at least three different drugs. Anti-depressants, and he also suggested an anti-psychotic. Thank god for my mother- she told him no. It would've been much uglier... The minute they tried to feed me that shit, I'd throw it up. We were secluded to our rooms for hours every day for 'reflection'. We could wear our own clothes... It was terrible. I feel your pain.

  • I totally agree with everything you wrote about mental hospitals, the stuff are nothing but sadistic bastards! When I was 18 I ended up in psychiatric department because I was anorexic and severely depressed and those assholes molested me all the time. Although it happened 6 years ago, I still can't forget it, no matter how hard I try.

  • this hospital made up excuses of why there patients were getting abused saying that they didn't have enough "resources" to care for the patients, this hospital didnt care about the patients at all, the original building is still there today but its abandend and has old pictures and documents still inside of it, its a rumour that theres ghosts of the patients abused inside the building, i would look it up on youtube, letchworth village is the worst mental hospital that ever existed

  • There used to be this mental Hospital in Rockland County called Letchworth Village in Havastraw NY, it opened in 1908 because the person who built it wanted to help the mentally ill people, after the original owner died this mental hospital started abusing people like crazy, chaining them to floors and burning them and performing experiments on them, then one day some brang a camera into there and showed it to the public and it got shut down in 1996 my the federal government

  • I've been to a mental hospital in Compton and it was nothing like this.

    Yes i did see patients freaking out and being held down and given a sedative but that was because he hit an orderly.

  • ive been in a mental hospital twice in a straight jacket for no reason exept for making weird noises in my school

  • @haloreachisepic i always make weird noises at school ahahahaha ALWAYS hhahaha its funny when i do it and im sorry you went twiciv never been to one .....................yet ahahhaha i hope i dont an then again sorry

  • this sounds so horrifying.im not joking,your story is beyond evil/sinister.i honestly cant imagine how disturbed you'd be AFTER it,not to mind the time u were there.god bless u.

  • I was hospitalized in a mental hospital as well, they were ALWAYS watching us.... It felt more like jail to me, I was hospitalized 2 weeks, we only went outside once ..in this courtyard that they had i remember sittin on the grass , i felt so dead inside.. but i always showed the opposite.. i lied to the pshcatrist and told him i was fine i just wanted to get out of that fuckin place.. i think ill never forgive my parents for leavin me in there :(
  • @itsmarianadactyl ya that suck ivnever been to one im sorry and ya when i was depressed idk somehow the topic of depression would come p in a converstion between my parens and and they woul ask me i i was i would say no im happy which wasnt i was depressed but i hid it from the world i locked it don and when i was alone i would burts out crying or burst out yelling or something i was relly depressed mab not as much as other people but fo this as a lot.

  • @RammsteinLover123 i still cry about it when i think of the days when i was in there.

    im still mad at my parents for leaving me in there.

    it fuckin made everything worst!

    i was in there for 2 weeks and my LIFE STOPPED IN THERE, it was as if my life was on pause...

    and the ouside world kept on livin..... the world kept on spinning but i was just there on pause..

    and when i got out my friends would treat me different...

    :(idk

    that shit marked me for life

  • I got sent by my actual counselor and psychiatrist as well as my parents.

    My fucking parents. Who I will never, EVER trust again.

  • @Drowzee64 yeap that happened to me as welllll. my fuckin counselor told my parents to hospitalize me in a mental hospital... this happened 2 years agoo...and when i think about it i cryyy...worst experience ever...i dont think i'll ever forgive my parents for doing that to me...

  • I'm 16 yo and I have been admitted three times in the past year. Like you, I was once sent threw my school. I paniced when I found out my dad had the school checking everything I did on the school computers (which I have put togthere after the fact, that it was a lie, along with pretty much everything else that comes out of his mouth when he is pressuared from my step mom to get me into trouble!).Anyways, I had searched how many pills it would take to acutally kill myself. I was pinked slipped!

  • If you think all that was heavy ; you're going to want to avoid getting tossed into prison at any cost. You'd never make it my friend!

  • @booly5 Shut the fuck up you prick. Of course your bias against a person who's been slapped with the label of "mentally ill" would outweigh your sensibility. Have some decency.

  • I feel so bad for you... i was only hospitalized once and i am never going back even though they treated me fine, i just hated being away. i can't imagine what you went through. hope the attcks stop

  • People are told of this sort of thing and worse. Im suprised you werent raped in THERE and maybe something did happen when you were "out" from those drugs. People are warned about this but they dont listen. They will when it happens to THEM. Recording Cams EVERYWHERE in the hospital would help, even though humiliating, youre humiliated anyway. And the recordings can be viewed in court. You were very brave to put this video up.

  • @MassDeportation thank you

  • Hey, for an English project we were studying psychiatric wards and asylums and this video really helped me out in writing my essay, hope you don't mind that I used some of the points. >< I am so sorry for what happened to you. You're completely right, no one should die in the hands of the people who are meant to be helping them.

  • @CaraKawaii no problem, glad to be of help

  • @thegodessofkumbalaya I have ADHD OCD BI-POLAR and depression i lash out and hit my sister all the time im scared one day ill lash out and hit someone else and be sent to a ward

  • that must be a high security hospital cause were i went was nothing like that but does have security doors now and it had a lock up ward for more serious patients but i was quite free to do more or less what i wanted except go out when i felt like it the food was okay sometimes but i could go to a canteen if i wanted better food which i had to pay for some people im my hospital were definetly in diffrent situations but everyone had a mental illness the staff were friendly but were very strict

  • Comment removed

  • It's horrible what they did to you. Animals are treated better than the way you were treated. Right now, I'm pissed off and mad because you didn't deserve to be treated that way. We don't know each other but nevertheless, I can't stay indifferent to what you wrote!

    I hope so much that you're better and feeling well! Don't give up!

  • @domdom111111 thanks!

  • @thegodessofkumbalaya U Do know that dey want to ensure ur safety , yes u can't blame them but theres lots of reason to create a mental hospital , still we all hate but sometimes u feel good bout it(i think) , my friend was also in the mental hospital for injuring himself like 3-4 times day , some say he was tryin to suicide some say it was an accident , he said " Never go in , The Hospital is Mental , The Tortue Never Stops." He even remember everything till now , be safe thegodessofkumbalaya

  • If you were my baby I would burn that place to the ground with the staff inside. Even though you aren't mine I am so angry for you. There's nothing normal in our "society", and at every turn there are controls and means to herd us. Just pointing it out gets you tagged, and singled out for special observation. I'm grateful you shared this.

  • im half irish, whats not normal about this then...?

  • Surprisingly after watching this I guess I haven't changed about the fact I don't care what happens to people in mental hospitals. Sadly, I guess, I don't care for other humans' lives.

  • i no how you feel its the worst place in the world i rather be in prison then a hospital again. there is no winning againts the staff the best thing is to fake a smile and get the fuck out of there or thats what i did but yes i feel your pain!!!!

  • now I know what I have to look for ward to, im going to mclanes tomorrow... im gona bring a knife

  • fuck that shit

    I was sent there and i have a hard time talking about what happened.

    Stay strong

    And i know u hear it alot but "Their not taking me back there alive"

    Ill fight until i die before i go back in that hell.

    Trust me, thats not hard for someone who's been abandoned with thier back against the wall who considers suicide

  • holy shit... i dont have any words :/ i cant understand how ppl can do this

  • By a high school guidance counsellor? What the fuck? I can hardly imagine how violated and betrayed you must have felt.

  • @lurconis666 That's why it is important to establish credibility and link with politicians! :> I start emailing politicians since 10! LOL In case of crisis, I show the letter to the school and they will think it is too dangerous to mess with you! Media is also important!

  • Мой дорогой ребенок, не тревожится о боли и терпеть увеличиваемых против вас. Я собирал усилие прочности не даже ваше правительство постигнет. Будет никакое ощупывание, никакая больше скорбы.

  • this is so disgusting. im sorry you had to go through that. it is good that you are getting the word out, though.

  • @lioxoda i think, your thinking of a residential? because in a HOSPITAL it's a lockdown. you cant even us a nail filer unless there watching you. you get stripped down like they said and have to wear a gown. There ARE cameras. I've been to 3 mental hospitals and 1 residental. I think your mixed up.

  • I was being bullyed at school im 13 and i tried to kill my self... i was locked in that place for a month.. they did not even help me they just put me on drugs. I HATED IT, and i have dreams about that place kids crying them banging there heads on walls. One of those monsters that check up on you molested me. There are no cameras in the room. I could not say i was molested... who would belive me they would make me stay longer

  • I've been in hospital twice and it was nothing like this. They did a suitcase search when you got there, nothing major or humiliating and they take away anything sharp which you can request back at the nurses station if you need it, such as nail file, but you have to return it. It was fair enough. My friends have been hospitalized too and it was fine. It's not a spa treatment, it is always going to feel like you're in prison, but I think the UK is very different for these things.

  • Mental Hospitals and those who treat them should be retrained in the rules of humanity. Those mental do not how hard it is to in this position of predicament. We human beings you you dick heads. This people should feel my pain but they don't.

  • I completely feel your pain. I was sent to psychiatric wards at age 14 over the period of a year. Eight months in one, four in the other. I have post traumatic stress from what I went through there. The staff never hurt me, but they ignored me. They ignored me when I told them I was raped by another patient whom had been diagnosed with schizophrenia. Being sane in a mental hospital leads to insanity because your awake enough to see the horrors. Im sorry you go through that.

  • Lol I've never been hospitalized.. eventhough my psychiatrist knew I was suicidal, depressed and a cutter. I even attempted suicide on the same day as one of my appointments and told him about it. Hell I even cycled around town one night cutting myself and being totally psychotic and told him the next day. Nothing happened though.. x]

    Anyway on topic; I doubt this happens in the Netherlands.. never heard of such stories.

  • I'm sorry this happened to you. :[ The problem with instituitions like this is that they are run by people who either have some sort of god complex or are just doing their "job" people who don't give a shit about anyone or anything. Just money. It makes me sick to my stomach.

  • May be an unpopular view but I would love to work in a mental hospital, I am really interested in mental health & psychological disorders.

    However I think things do need to change, obviously some people do need help, but there's a different between help and depersonalisation, it's not fair to strip people of their dignity and section them, but it can differ from places, I'm really sorry that you had such an awful experience though. :(

  • my family thinks im fine. all better. that hospital helped her they say. i faked progress so much in there. i sucked up to them. said everything the wanted to hear. after 11 days they let me go. but i had to come back during the day for 5 more days. i still remember everything. crackers is almost all i ate there. now i hate crackers. when i eat them all the memories come back. DONT EVER SEND SOMEONE HERE! its hell. for anyone

  • i was in one. i was never restrained. but the undressing and the meds is all real. they brainwash u too. make u think u should be there. to tell ur visitors ur getting help. and i dont know why but i repeated that to my family and church mentor that visited me. i put on the fake smile and all. u couldnt talk. u were in ur room for forever. i hated it. when i got out my mentor saw me cut and said i thought u were better. i told her that place made me more suicidal than i ever have been in my life
