when i was 11 they put me in the mental unit at one of the hospitals here in jersey. wether i was crazy before i went in or not...i'm crazy since i've left. ok so i was trying to cut some italian bread with the big bread knife and my sister coemsa and is all like GIMME THE KNIFE! and iwas like no i'm hungry. so she grabbed at the knife and cut herself.anyway after that i was locked up. everyone liked me there. i'm a funny person. i made them laugh. o i also held the record for most jumps in the jump rope contest.
i have never been in a mental hospital but i know someone who did.. i hope he will post here
I have been institutionalized twice. I have a major brain chemical imbalance that makes me prone to psychotic episodes. I hated those psyc hospitals they are terrible places. The medication they put you on makes you a zombie. They make you participate in stupid group sessions and do dumb crafts. I had no tv or radio in my room nothing to do. And don't even get me started on the vile crap they call food. If it was'nt for the drugs I think I would have been more psychotic when I left the damn place.
Haha , VTR ..
Yeah . Once . I had to . Sedated . Came home . End of story . Very boring , cried half the time and slept the other half . [exaggerating , of course ;)]
ok are you asking if we have ever visited one or if we have ever been committed into one?
no i aint been in one before, but i wud wanna volenteer to go in one just for a couple of weeks lol
I haven't been committed myself (yet), but my mother, some of my friends, and two of my ex boyfriends have. So I've racked up a lot of visiting hours.
I've never been commited, but I have visited people who have.... zombie nation.
same as a lot of ppl here: never been committed, but i've put in a lot of time as a visitor.
nope but i do see someone to talk about my problems with! or other wise i would most likley be!
nope... sane nearly all my life except one exception where nobody would've actually been able to help anyway.
Once i was cought attacking someone and I was able to talk myself out of the Metal institute
No, but I was 3 minutes from being locked in a mental ward for the night with the night shift... not a pretty picture.
"Have you ever been to a mental Hospital?"
TO or IN?
Hmm?
I have been to one before...I was commited to it...I was about 15 if I remember correctly...I was sitting in my sophmore science class and the kid behind me was talking about my mom...at the time I snapped on anyone that talked about my mom..now I snap on anyone that talks about my family...so I turned around and told him to shut the F%$# up or I was gonna hit him with the chair I was sitting in...he shut up for a little bit...he then started again...I do not warn people twice...so I stood up picked the chair up and slammed it into his head...I layed his a$$ on the ground. I didn't stop there either...I bashed his head in three more times...he was in a coma for four months after that...The techer looked at me and asked what happened...I looked at him and said.."hmm...blood on the chair and he is laying down on the floor unconscience? What the hell do you think happened?" He looked at me and told me to get the f%$# out of his class. I left, after that I was in the mental hospital for two years..thus is why I am out now...that is my story...what do you guys think?
I submitted to the hospital in november for 2weeks.3 of those days I was on watch for suicide, after those threedays I was constently being watched by the staff because I was a loner and seeked shelter in my own world, I let it slip in one class that I was afraid of the dark and my thereapist putt my in a BLACK room with no light what so ever for 2days and Those 2 days I spent crying.. I broke both of my fist banding on the door I lost my voice from the screaming and crying. After I was release from the room I walked around like a ghost everytime my mother called I cryed begging her to come and get me.. Finnal I got a call from my cousin and he camed and released me from the hospital.. Since then I still can't sleep in the dark.
wow Adam. that sounds fun. i have to go in the same group as nightstalkervamp. i think it would be fun to be in there for a little bit voluntarily.
So I take it that none of you have a response for my experience...which would mean you are either terrified by it or you do not believe me...
No, i never been in one...but my fam love to lock me in..
anyway
Adam, what you did with that child was brilliant, in your position I'll do that too or worst, been in there....what you did......who you feel..
I think that here where I life the Mental Hospital are way different. But anyway ...someday will tell
Now our deal is seal....
Almost forgot *Death kisses to you*
play nice kidlets.....nuff with the personal flames....
k well I myself have not been in one....not for lack of them trying tho.....since most of my friends have at one time or another the shrinks have tried repeatedly to get their hands on me...but I always refused to go in to chat.....so without a court order they couldn't get me.....
We are sorry for fighting daddy..LoL...sorry I had to have some fun sir...I know what you mean...but with me I really didn't have much choice but to go in there...don't you agree?
I am an Advocate for the Mentally Ill and the hospitals are terrible, like prisons.. they really need to change..
Yes, I was put into a Mental Hospital when I was in 9th grade. It's not like my parents just threw me in there, I agreed to going. My parents left that choice up to me. I don't know if it really helped but I made a lot of friends that had a lot of the same problems as me. My experience there was horrible, mainly because we went to bed at 9:00 p.m. every night, woke up every morning at 6:00 a.m., wasn't allowed to smoke, and we weren't allowed any chocolate or pop. Yeah... it sucked.
I live near one... Many people say I should belong there, so everytime I pass by it, I scream, "HOME!"... If I was there, I would help the others break out... They end up wandering out of the place on there own anyways... Insanity is the closest some people can get to genious... I love to be insane... :)...
I've lost track of how many times. I think it's 7 now. Always voluntary - I could spin so I wouldn't be Baker Acted.
Usually for self mutilation, a few for OD.
It's not so bad. Over the past two years, the techs have gotten so used to me that they don't even care about my makeup anymore, they all know my entire case history and last time made a banner for my return...
i have never been to a mental hospital....but i hope to go to one someday,.....just for fun!!....or maybe my family will put me in one....jp
wish i had, i heard they got nice drugs, just joking, but sometimes i do wish i could go
