I've had similar experiences both in a hospital and in a clinic. In the clinic they just kept lying to me and I finally got an "advocate" and sued them. They continued to lie. The "advocate" did not give a da** and told me years later "they" had decided that I was just so angry and upset that "they" should just try to calm me down. All they did was make me want to blow because they were supposed to be helping me and they were just going along with all the lies. I still get all fires up just typing this. I read a lot of my records not all they would not allow it. I had to get a lawyer to do that and they kept telling me they never received his letters until I had them sent return receipt. Anyway the state lawyer came to my home and told me confidentially that they were really bad and I would win the case hands down. Then a few months later I find out that all the work I had done got burned up in a fire.
I had nightmares about what these people had done to me quite purposefully for years. I used to want to go over there and blow up the building.
Anyway the way I finally got over most of it was when I realized that the more I let what they did to me affect my life the more it meant they were being successful. So I had to put it behind me or they win. It is as simple as that. The thought of letting these things go seems so wrong as we have been so violated. But if there is nothing you can do about it (I tried with the lawsuit but fait was not with me) then hanging on continues to let them have this negative affect on your life. They are not thinking of you they are on to their next victim. Another thing you cannot dwell on if there is nothing you can do about it. You have to put it behind you or you are giving them a success. You need to be the one in control and make yourself a success. Not allow for what others have inflicted upon you to have a permanent affect. Do not give them that power. They su**. You are the good one here so prove it.
Forget those jerks and live a happier life. That is my wish for you.
