I was having an anxiety attack when I was in the mental hospital & they rough-handled me, restrained me, threw me in the seclusion room, & gave me a shot & threatened to call the cops on me. I never knew the cops can be called on a mental health patient while in the hospital, & I also wonder since when was having an anxiety attack been a crime? They also called me attention-seeking & irrational, & I wasn't. & one of the nurses laughed @ me while experiencing the attack, & then when I got upset, they tried to say I was paranoid, & I wasn't. I KNOW that nurse was pointing & laughing @ me. Also, the doctor put me on antipsychotic meds (Seroquel), based on what "the nurses" reported about me, & I think they just didn't understand me. & every time I needed assistance, the nurses tried to avoid me. I felt I wasn't being treated fairly. & 1 dude my age (24) figured he had authority over me just because he worked there & figured I was crazy.
