I will start by stating a few things about myself. I suffer from severe psychiatric disorders. I have attempted suicide twice and institutionalized over twenty times. I am a self mutalator.
I have recently gone to my local area mental health emergency department. I explained to them that I was suicidal. The emergency psychiatrist on call was very rude to me and told me there was nothing she could do for me. Also, one of the staff members threatned to break a bone in my body, after I threatned to throw a chair at me for harrassing me.
Needless to say, I never got a proper psychiatric evalutation. Honestly, I still think I need to be institutionalized because of my self-harm. I constantly think about suicide, yet i'm afraid to do it. Anyways, thats not the point. The point is, I need to know what to do about this facility for treating me so badly. That was not the only time this place has mistreated me. I have also been released from there after being sedated and was found lost passed out in a parking lot. Also, a staff member has choked me and many of them have verbally abused me.
I don't know what I should do from here as far as getting the help I need and getting justice after being mistreated. Please let me make you aware that I do have suicidal thoughts, but as of right now I do not have any intentions to carry those thoughts out. I am just worried if I do not get the help I need it could or could not get worse.
Please give me some advice on what I should do.
Thank You,
Jessica
