Venting Goodbye

[loveable_lamb]

In my case, the hospital staff treated me very rudely too. Years ago I took a lot of pills, not because of trying to commit suicide, but because I just wanted to force sleep and stop the pain for some time. They made me feel very ill and went to the hospital and they were very rude. Once I vomited the stuff, I felt better and waited for hours and just wanted to leave because there are so many people... and the fucking nurse told me harshly "you should have thought better". ok bitch, if i was actually trying to kill myself i would have tried again for sure. thanks bitch.

about your so called friends... im sorry that you are lonely, but if they treat you like that, you should never contact them again.

I feel like a lot of the hospital staff gets desensitised by seeing emergencies all day. Definitely not an excuse to treat patients badly though!

The friend in question has his reasons for treating me that way. He used to really be there for me, basically my caregiver. But just like the hospital staff, he got desensitised to how I feel. Again not an excuse to treat me like shit, but I do get where he's coming from. We talked this through and broke contact amicably about a month ago. He's really not an awful person.

disgusting. I'm sorry you have to deal with this. there is poor understanding of drugs in people that dont use them, unfortunately, and poor understanding of mental health in hospitals, which is a bad combination

Yeah, this truly enraged me being there. I don't suffer from addiction myself, but do have the few brain cells it takes to know that most addicts aren't in that position for fun and games. Keeping hospitals so uneducated isn't encouraging anyone to quit either. No shit so many people are stuck in the cycle of substance abuse while everyone is screaming that they're just not trying hard enough

I wonder if they are in the psych ward now :( hopefully we see them again.

Yup, in the ward... But a very flexible one now after being on suicide watch in a different hospital for a few days. The current hospital allows you to go outside A LOT. I'm desperately trying to find a job now to make some money outside the therapies, order another batch of H and ctb again.
