In reply to restraints and seclusion, posted by Berberis on February 10, 2006, at 13:40:21
I was put in restraints and seclusion when I attempted suicide. I was unconscious when they did it, but I got the feeling that it was SOP there. It could be that you got it, too, for the same reason.
As for psych wards being a place where mean people go to inflict themselves on the most vulnerable, I think there's a lot to that. Someone else can tell us why, but I think it's because the sorts of people who would take advantage of their power tend to gravitate towards that sort of environment, because they will be able to do so.
