Some of the doctors and nurses enjoy restraining people… they all should be outlawed " Restraints that is."

Yeah it is disgusting, even though it has never happened to me.

I have never been restrained, thank goodness. I think I would panic; I don’t know how y’all survived it. I found the hospital to be painfully boring. I did, however, take great pleasure in coming up with exciting new words to use each day when asked how I felt in group. I was trying to stump the group leader so they wouldn’t know what I was saying. Pretty sure I got them, too. Once, another patient asked me what in the world that word meant. hehehe

I don’t remember it doing anything at all. I’m pretty sure it didn’t even put me to sleep. It just fed into my delusions. I thought the shot was to torture me because I didn’t like shots.

dang they only gave you one shot… They gave me 4x that shot last time I was restrained, and it just mad me madder at them.
I have been several times. It’s not pleasant

Every time I have ever gotten a needle I’ve had to be held down. Once in the ER I caused such a fuss that three security guards had to come over and restrain me.
When I get needles I act like you possibly would if you knew that these people were going to cut off your leg while holding you down.
So sufficient to say, I fight for my life. As hard as I can. Kicking, screaming at the top of my lungs, head-butting, spitting. Cursing (no not swearing but actually cursing people, makes some uncomfortable to say the least) Occasionally vomiting on people. Fun times.
Generally it’s planned injections, nothing that takes me by suprise. However once or twice when i was very unwell i had to be restrained and given some stuff that made me a complacent zombie.
I haven’t been before, but my boyfriend has. I’m usually considered compliant enough that they haven’t needed to yet.
Also with the spitting it’s not actually at people, that’s gross. It’s more like an angry cat.
I was restrained and injected with Haldol once in each arm.
This occurred during my last Hospital stay.

My first time in the hospital i’ve been restraint and put into seclusion.
I had to be restrained by the cops after raging at my family after Piracetam made me psychotic. Luckily I did no serious physical damage. Worst thing I ever did.

I have been restrained three times, all during my illness times, probably made worse by the professionals because it made me flashback to my assualt where I was heald on my stomach so I could be done over. Once when I had made a major attempt on my life i was in the physical assessment unit at hospital I was pacing and ‘distressing the other patients’ I couldn’t and wouldn’t help myself calm down so they restrained me to the bed. Then twice when I was in a Psychiatric ward, once because I was throwing chairs at the door into the garden, we had a load of absconders so they were only letting smokers into the garden at agreed break times the rest of us weren’t allowed out at any other time. I just wanted to breathe fresh air and was angry as hell, I just needed space, I was restrained becuase they needed me out of the room for eating disorders break time and I was just wanting to die so they forcibly heald me on the ground until I complied, I fought back but there were three of them on me, adults I was a 17 year old an im only 4ft 10 inches tall they basically swamped me before injecting me (one of my main delusions since is that I am injected in my sleep) and dragging me off just defeated, there was no need to inject me I was balling my eyes out and in a reflex state to my history. Then once when I was whacking my head against the wall in my room and gradually getting more worked up.
