The doctors do not know what they are doing.

Chemicals and restraints can not make people sane. Chemicals and restraints can force people to become obedient.

For a reason of anger of yelling from Dr.Daniel Ruiz.
from the last psychiatrist website

"The worst thing that can happen to a narcissist is a narcissistic injury-- in which their desired, constructed identity is revealed to be invented.

What happens in narcissistic injuries? Rage and violence."

Phil, I am outraged by this inhuman and inhumane treatment of a patient and her parent. I ask "is this for real"? I will write a letter but it sure seems like nothing will work. Where are human rights in all of this? Jail time seems easier, doesn't it?

What a bizarro world... How have people lost the ability to think in anything other than generalizations? (It's "the outside world" vs. "the safe confines of a hospital". Except this patient was not living alone on a street corner; she has an involved, dedicated, loving parent. This is not a subtle nuance.)

I don't understand how this is even legal how Lindsay is being treated. I am so terrified of psychiatric hospitals after my son's very brief but horrid experience in one and reading Stephany's blog. It's terrifying how much power the doctors in these hospitals have and how unnatural, creepy and abusive the doctors and the environment itself can be.

My brain is fried with lack of sleep so I wrote Change.org and asked what category this situation fell under. They draft letters and all you have to do is sign-you can add your own comments.

Lindsay is not alone.
Like the prison system, the mental health system has become an industry. Now states use guardianship and mental incarceration as a cash cow.
Follow the money.

None of this makes any sense. The only place she's been harmed has been in the psych hospital, so what do they do? They send her back to the only place she has been harmed in order to keep her safe. Yeah, makes sense to me.

It's unacceptable that they would place her in a facility with sex offenders. They did that to me, too. I have never committed a crime. I was petrified to go to sleep. I pleaded with the nurse to lock me in a room while I slept, because I was afraid someone would come in my room during the night and hurt me. Let's just say that worrying about being assaulted doesn't do wonders for one's mental health.

Unfortunately, as so often happens this becomes about who has control. The physician doesn't like her having access to an advocate. Why? Because it's not in the physician's best interests. He controls when she gets to go outside, when people can visit, and so on. It's a messed up system. Yet, again we see how different psych hospitals are from regular hospitals. Maybe, one day they'll decide we're human beings.

"Lindsay is not alone."

Yes, and we have to fight for her to try to make others not suffer the same.
I will be polite, of course.
Have strength and faith Stephany.
