Honestly the thing I hated most was them looking at my scars it was just traumatising.

[otakusensei]

As someone whos gone several times, this is very accurate.

[Ur_alt_bestie]

Lmao I lied to the hospital staff so that I didn’t have to go to a mental hospital lmao.

"It is not as scary as you think"
Brother i went to a psych ward in Raleigh North Carolina and got assaulted by two other males 17-16 and not one staff member do any instentive checks on me...

[ThaiBogie]

I got sent to one when i just had anger issues and my first day there my roommate hung himself in our bathroom worst experience of my life

[Just_Sage_]

I am NOT changing infront of strangers

My experience was awful. Children's psych unit in Alberta, Canada. The staff forced a strip search of all patients upon entry. They insisted on checking your nude body for contraband, and to check your body cavities for the same. If you don't comply with the strip search they WILL force it upon you. You're stripped of all your belongings, including your own undergarments (they give you a unit pair to wear, and no bras for the women). They even took my glasses for the first two days and I could not see more than a few feet in front of my face. I was on lockdown in my room for the first 24 hours as it was COVID times and it was required for quarantine. I was not allowed to contact my parents unless they visited in person, and I wasn't allowed visitors for the first week and a half. The nurses would regularly insult the patients in front of us as if we couldn't hear them. And they wonder why my second day there another kid has enough and got violent with the staff...

uh lets not forget that they check every part of u for drugs, weapons, etc..

[Bunnycloudgacha]

This happened to me and it was freaking traumatizing. After that I can’t go anywhere without a stuffed animal or a comfort item or I will start crying.

[juliam]

if they tried made me take off my clothes i would actually be the first person to alt f4 in that particular day

[Tabby]

Being Involuntarily imprisoned will always be scary

[LittleGlockLittle]

"The chairs are super heavy so you can't throw them at people" bro I had a guy (13 year old) throw 5 of them at me and after that whole incident was done. I found out they were very, very easy to pick up like 13 year old me could overhead press them and I'm not that strong either the place I went didn't even have bathroom doors

My psych ward experience was more traumatic than anything I’ve ever experienced before

[Octaxiion]

When I went to inpatient, I had no bras and only a chest binder and had to wear that everyday (I was fortunate that it was one size bigger or else my ribs probably would’ve broke). I asked for bras many times but they just didn’t have any (or just didn’t give it to me for some reason)
And before anyone asks why not take it off, because of my own trauma that I will not being into

[YumYumBoba]

Those chairs are super heavy me who got one thrown at me 💀

[SkyeTheArabianRedFox]

This literally sounds terrifying. That might just be my hospital trauma tho

[emma]

I would refuse to take my clothes off and do any thing if I was already upset I would start crying and speaking gibberish cus I would be overwhelmed and scared so hah fun !❤😂

[Hazbn_hotel]

What if you feel uncomfortable taking your clothes off? Like do you have to take off ALL of your clothes and all like not a bit of clothing left because if yes I'm hiding the scars from my mom

[livewellwitheds]

its actually worse than you think. many people are traumatized for life from these kinds of hospitals.

[stinky-smelly]

It really depends. I went to an adolescent mental health facility in central Oklahoma twice and it was a bit different. I was allowed to keep my clothes, but during intake i had all of my scars (including acne scars and a scar from a dog bite on my belly) taken pictures of. Very embarrassing and humiliating. We could keep slip-on shoes that were searched before and after lunch/rec time, and we had normal doors.
