How did you feel in the mental ward?

It depends…when I’m voluntary i don’t mind being there, but if I’m involuntary and getting sent to Anchorage i hate it, especially when they shackle me for the plane ride. But it’s been quite a few years since that’s happened. I don’t mind the regular ward too much, i just settle in and behave myself.

I feel like a burden when I’m in there, cuz a friend takes care of my dog and my clubhouse director starts my car up so the battery doesn’t die. I feel like I’m all imposing on their lives and I’m just a burden on society and need to get out of there as fast as possible.
My first hospitalization was a total psychotic party. My second hospitalization was unbearable hell. Traumatized for ever from my second hospitalization. Dont want to ever end up in that situation again. Both hospitalizations lasted a month each.
I’ve only been in the once. 38 days on a section 2. Overall it was a good experience 3/5.
More semi-mental than sentimental.

I feel like a balloon a kid let go of. I stay to myself and go read. Walk around the ward watch others.

When I need to be in a ward then I am in a bad state of mind and it’s going to be hell in there, no matter how nice the ward is or how good the food is.

I was in a mental ward once in my life and hated it felt judged there and watched like a hawk I couldn’t eat then go to my room afterwards because someone said I was throwing up I hate snitches too even If I did throw up who’s business was it to tell on me unless they didn’t like me for some reason quite possible. I get that a lot even now days. I haven’t been in a psych hospital since and that was back in 2003 I was 26 years old. Now 48 going on 49.
