In reply to Hospital -in or out ?, posted by cee on May 17, 2009, at 13:32:06

Well with this question you need to gather up the info,BUT please no matter which post sounds best or worst,Try yo listen to your gut,and follow that first.

My personal experiance with hospitals is horrid,First prior to one,and as family members believe who constantly want to shove me in one is this.....like a HOSPITAL there are docs around,so to be in the care where during an entire day you have acess to speaking with docs vs the five min u get in a med session sounded GREAT ! NOT TRUE,although you do get to see a doc each day,its for a matter of min,he comes in and like clock work calls in the patients,mr x ,now mr z,now r etc then he is outta there.

You are done,and now left to basicaly KILL an entire day,YOURE OPTIONS are to go to constinous random groups led by 19 year old counslers who at times even just played a movie.

Heres my visit in a long shot,and the extreme measure i went to about recomdations for the hospital.


1.Eat food in plastic trays that me you wonder if the plastic foam might actualy taste better.

2.Wait in eager to see my doc,who i do for 5- 10 min.

3.He shorlty after leaves,and no actual MD doc is visiable in the floor the rest of the entire day.

4.Counslers,in some cases young as 19 have random groups,none pretaining to any thing medicaly with the brain,in fact the terms of gaba and dopamine for all purposes can be to them a new rock group out.

5.If you choose not to go to these groups,you are watched,and non particpation to the groups are considered by them to be a bad thing to talk to your doc about.Maybe you just want be left alone but no particpation in these groups in my case lead to benifits of eating down in the cafteria and having less EYES on my *ss all day.

6.I work out,i lift and try cardio,no gym equip of any kind,i was surprised they allowed me to walk up and down the long long hall for cardio,lol remeber one staff looked at me and i said NO IM NOT CRAZY LOL,im trying to get some form of cardio in.

7.To drink stood to gigantic colored juice tub dispencers,so through the day you can come and have juice,this actualy was good for me as soda is my weight gain nightmare,and i did loose 30 healthy pds,however its just eerie to see the two giant tubs there for thrist.

8.A pro was i dident remeber anyone hustling me to bed,people seemed to disappear to bed and others watched movies up until the am hrs.

9.Staff at desk are very nice people,they are not gona discuss gaba with you,but they are generaly nice people and with my med induced pyschosis i learned i hit one guy member clear in the jaw,i apologised to him every day i think he was more annoyed with that then the punch lol,but yess they to their credit do handle paitents who will hit them and from what i saw they were very carefull and professional,lol i in a haze remeber one lady hanging literaly on my leg,then the five member staff disappeared and these two guys built like football players came in grabbed me from undermy armpits and swooped me away easly,and im 6`1 250 lol they were some big guys but it was all done very saftly to me the patient.

Now when i was out,these are the recomdations i had that i called to the highest person i could find concerning issues,


First i asked,

1.Why cant the hospital have a small libary with books pretaining to our illness,we could visit and go through them and would serve as a good option to those non stop therapys.

2.Second i asked,i dont expect the facility to have internet to go and yahoo chat,HOWEVER im a pc tech and you can have KIOSK with extremly tightly limited internet access to email and maybe just search,to help the patient feel less isolated from the world.

3.I obviously asked about a gym,i said its always stated excersise helps depression,why is there not even a very simple gym with one of those old multi units that allow u to easly do numerous excersises on the one unit.Maybe a track to run,something.

They agreed i had good points but im sure it fell on deaf ears.

Sorry to run off on your post,one thing i wil say to you is this.

********** MAKE SURE YOU DONT IN ANY WAY SAY YOU FEEL AS IF YOU WANT TO HURT YURSELF OR ANYONE ELSE**********

Now if u feel so then of course thats different,however if u even come close to saying this in a mild form it is a redlight to keep you there much much longer then you would want.

I wish you luck,feel free to return this post with anything specific and ill answer.
