  • will you ever make any more videos?

  • I'd like to apologize that I haven't answered some questions, here. I have been busy working, at another psych hosp, in another state. I enjoy all of your comments. The important thing is to take the stigma out of mental health care.

  • i dont know if this is true or not, but i thought i might ask you.

    at most hospital they won't tell you what you are taking even if you ask. or was that how it used to be before like way back when when people were there and they had to take drugs they had no idea about like being held against their will type of thing.

    way back when like hospitals in one flew over the kukoos nest. type of thing

  • A good practitioner will tell the patient what he or she is taking and why. Every patient has a right to know the meds he or she is taking.

  • They have liquid meds and injections

  • I did the videos before moving to ND. I have been told that I have more of a NY accent.

  • Thank you SO much for these videos. :)

  • you did a wonderful job, very educational. thanks :) one of my friends went to a psych ward so i was curious.

  • I can't thank you enough for making these videos. They are EXACTLY what I needed in researching the book I'm working on, and I appreciate so much the careful detail you went into about every aspect of your experience working in psychiatric care facilities. So glad to have found these!

  • Addy, your a robot. You obviously have been doing this way to long.

  • loved the series, it answered all my questions and calmed me down alot because i may have to go to a mental facility and it was nice to hear someone sit down and just explain everything. thank you so much, hope you make some more vids soon.

  • Thank you so much for doing these videos <3

  • Thanks Addydawn, your knowledge and compassion are evident. My grandmother and uncle were both in psych hospitals at various times and underwent ECT for severe depression. It would be great if you could do a segment on ECT, if you have that knowledge. Anything about weaning off benzodiazapenes would be helpful too...my GAD was only diagnosed 5 yrs ago (about 10 yrs after my depression diag), and I'm on a low dosage of Xanax, but if I miss a day, I get even more anxiety. Thanks for your candor.

  • they wouldnt tell me the meds i was takeing
