ushuly you get to the er you dont get shown *only what i was told*

I’ve been to different wards thirteen times (almost all for medication reactions so I could wane off them slowly and safely) and it really does depend on which hospital you go to. Some hospitals are safe spaces that put a huge emphasis on therapy (especially art and music therapy) with supportive staff and great security protections (I was almost SAed in a hospital once - the nurse/security took it seriously and transferred the guy to a different location [he ended up getting arrested on a completely different charge]). Another time a nurse confused me with a different patient and tried to force medication I was deathly allergic to down my throat thinking I was “resisting treatment” for not taking it and correcting my name (another nurse had to pry her off me). Unfortunately some places are funded better than others, which affects the quality of staff and safety conditions. I still think it’s important to go if you feel your life is in danger, but I empathize with people who are just as unsafe in their local wards.

I feel like people have a fundamental misunderstanding of self inserts as most creative work(comics, stories etc.) consume are aimed to be at an audience and they sort of expect that from self inserts too, but the thing of self inserts is they are not made to appeal to an external audience, self inserts are for the authors and that is all that matters

U ok? Its just been ahwile no updates, hope ur doing good <3

Sadly, I think I am going to commit suicide soon here but I can certainly relate to this experience. Sadly, I have gone there three times and I feel it has certainly made me worse. I dont think I can do it anymore here. So think this is one of the few messages I have left in me. But I do hope for you to take care of yourself. Please do, it is a tough experience and a harsh one to have. Luckily, being a girl, I feel at least you have the chance to escape deep loneliness. It is something I feel I never go the chance to do. I think if I was born not a guy I could have had a chance but sadly, guys issues arent really cared about, moreso then that. We dont really get to survive or even share our experiences because that is a failure and men are replaceable. That is sadly all I really have learned from my experience. It has been an experience but that does not mean women dont have their own problems. That its just different kinds of problems we all face.

I ain't going back to the ward RAAAAAH

I went to the mental hospital last year in October and the experience was pure hell. The emotions i felt overshadowed the ones i felt that got me there in the first place. My ex friend was the one who got me there which sparked MAJOR trust issues. After that i got sent there which made me have attachment issues and abandonment issues. No one ever tells people about the feeling of going insane/de realization. The hospital i went to had no access to the outside world and the few windows only aimed towards the other parts of the facilities walls. That led to me feeling an overwhelming sense of loneliness and abandonment, i tried to remember things that comforted me like my gf and mom but all i could think about was the feeling that we were out of the world away from everyone and all the comfort i so much wanted. After a week and a half i came back worse and grew resentful of everyone. I then struggled withthe thought that the world did in fact go without me and that everything didn't just freeze. I then had to catch up on weeks of school work, cleaning, and social life stuff. Now i never feel safe with speaking about ny feelings or expressing them. Edit: the place was Ridgeview at Smyrna ga it is one of the worst hospitals and i wouldn't recommend staying there. I witnessed patient abuse, bad security, patients harming others and themselves and some even going to the hospital over poor care.

4:15 I feel the same way

Because of this vid I want to work in a mental hospital when I’m older now Or like volunteer if that exists I want to comfort and help Like one of my friends I help comfort sometimes when she needs it (She hasn’t been coming to school I’m getting worried but I think she’s ok)

Dude, you know it's REAL bad, when a mentally ill teen is better at comforting mentally ill kids than the nurses.

I went to a mental hospital before July 4th 2020 or 2021. it started when I post something on Twitter that I wanted to hurt myself, and someone on Twitter DM. I didn’t respond because I was doing chores outside with my family. So the police officers knocked in our door and they told me that we know what you post online…I was scared and my anxiety was high because I can’t lie about the post because they already seen it and apparently I said the “wrong words”. So they handcuffed behind me. I started crying because I was afraid. So they took me to the mental hospital and they say that they’re going to keep me there for 3 days, but the nurse said no. So let’s just say that I was scared, uncomfortable, and people who work at the mental hospital has no heart and they don’t care, and they treat mental illness people like monsters.

ur an amazing artist!

Just get therapy, there's a lot of shitty mental hospitals, and I've seen other videos like this, and I wish they were just banned, I hate it.

I know I shouldn't be watching this because of how traumatic my experience was, but I'm going to watch it anyway and then probably have a panic attack and pass out, perhaps even collapse or dislocate a joint. Or even relapse into head banging like when I was 10. But brain says I have to watch, so here I go! (It's not anyone's fault but my own)

I’ve been to the same mental hospital 3 times. They were NEVER this bad. They sucked, but that was miserable. I’m so sorry, you never deserved that. Guys, i promise, not all hospitals are like that.

Also we should parphrase using phrases associated with and/or passed off as "food" in appliance to living beings?

For those that hate what is passed off as "food" and let alone from carnist colonial capitalist agriculture, that also sprays plants with more intended eugenenics, see how long you can sustain body mass with no intake, when also there are people who energetically live with no intake and grow your own fruit as a safety net, when the only things that are natural, as opposed to capitalist colonial urbanisation?

Me changing what I wanna be when I grow up because of these horrible stories*

I hear alot of ppl on yt ralking abt how their mental hospital experience was terrible, and I feel so bad for u guys, i hope ur doing better now. Also, the lindner center (i think i spelled that wrong) is a rlly good mental hospital

I just realised I was being emotionally abused by my childhood best friend for 3 years. I was wondering why it broke me so much, I thought it was just a toxic friendship. It was abusive the whole time. I feel stupid for not realising, and I don’t know why they would do that to me.

I was just browsing KZbin when I found this video. Really good video! I love it! As a trans fem, I can't personally relate to wanting to be a man, but I certainly can relate to wishing to be acknowledged as the opposite gender, and I'm happy that you were able to come to a better headset by the end. I hope you had a great holiday season that year, and I hope that you also have a great holiday season this year as well!

my psych ward experience ended up with me developing ptsd, i dont think i need to get into all the details of it, but i am an adult, so i was with some very very unstable people, one of which was a cannibal. so that was something

I. Hate. People. Who. Treat. People. Like. How. They. Treated. You.

I like ur drawing style is it based off of the owl house? I’m just wondering. I hope u get better btw :)

I'm so sorry Pax you had to deal with that. Staff at Psych Wards and Eating Disorder places need to be more caring and understanding. TW: Eating Disorders, Awful Doctors, and Fights: I've been to a lot of psych wards but this video reminds me of some that I still remember to this day of what happened. There was this one place I want to a few times and I always had the same doctor. I HATED him so much. He literally said to me(I am not joking) "I don't think you have an Eating Disorder because you're eating." That comment was extremely hurtful to me. He also tried to discharge me without warning. At another place, there was this charge Nurse who wouldn't let us go outside and would claim that there wasn't enough staff. There was also no clock until the end of my stay there and one of the patients actually called the police. The other place that sticks out clearly in my mind is one I have been to a few times as well. It was a good place and the staff on the unit I was on actually cared about you. My doctor there was not helpful at all. When it comes to Psych Ward Doctors, I always end up having awful ones. Anyways, the thing that I was going to talk about was an incident that happened to me. There was this one girl who would be nice and then mean. She said in front of everyone to me "stop going into my room and stealing things. I know it was you." Everyone including the staff knew that she was making that up and that I wasn't doing any of that. One night, she tried to fight me and I did nothing to provoke her. I was just sitting at a table coloring. Staff had to get in between both of us. I said get the fuck away from me. I was able to run into my room. All of these events have given me so much trauma. I have Anorexia now and that one doctor didn't understand anything about Eating Disorders. What he said to me made zero sense.

Do you have IBD as well!!!! (If yes me to!!)

Wow… The US is something else… I had anorexia, I got a therapist special help and stuff, certainly not put inside a concentration camp

Kind of comforting to know I’m not the only one who’s experienced this

actually thank you bc i didn’t know how bad it was to insult yourself in front of your partner i will try my best to stop doing that

Oh my god I've never been in a mental hospital but I'm so sorry this happened to you I received from my depression and my eating disorder without a mental hospital but I'm just so sorry that things that are supposed to help you didn't

I just hope your better now, your a good person with a lot to offer in life.

I’m a new viewer and watching your content is helping to make me more open minded and having me understand more heavier topics. I really like your art, I hope your doing better now. 4 years can seem like a long time but pain can sometimes still be fresh.

i went to a mental hospital once, it wasn't the best :( tw - Ablism -Tw So i have a breathing disorder, which when doing physical activity im not able to breath correctly. And im not able to hold as much oxygen or hold my breath as long as other people. This can cause dizziness, hyperventilation, stomach aches, and other things. And this also usually this results in me getting anxious or panicking that eventually spirals into an anxiety or panic attack. Im also dyslexic, have autism, ADD, short term memory loss, hallucinations, and have an anxiety disorder. For personal reasons i will not state my breathing disorder. At the time of being at the mental hospital, i was 12, and was not diagnosed. But i had strong showcases of my disorders. But the staff there, usually made us do something physical everyday. And I would always excuse myself from these things, but one day i decided to participate. Which was not a good idea, because i ended up having a panic attack. But the staff would not accommodate to my needs :( And other times when i asked for help about my symptoms of my breathing disorder, i would get told off. The staff wasn't nice, and because i was so young i was scared to talk to people. So i felt completely alone at the time D: This triggered a depressive episode and i ended up going non-verbal for a few weeks. Staff ended up treating me worse when that happened :(( And it caused me to spiral a bit. I also had really bad memory loss at the time, and staff would get mad at me for forgetting to eat or take my meds.. And whenever I reported my hallucinations they would threaten to say im getting worse and make me stay longer, so i had to keep quiet about that.. During that time, there was a guy maybe 16 who kept hitting on me. Which triggered my anxiety disorder. And i ended up throwing up. One of the nurses had called me dramatic when i was having a trauma response(throwing up) and ended up making me stay longer. I stayed a total of three weeks, and i don't remember alot since my brain doesn't like to remember bad things. but not all mental hospitals are like this, so make sure to research and find a good one if you need it!!

I’m sorry to hear this :((((

I don't remember exactly what my little sister said, but i know that they had male doctors looking at her shower and she learned a new ball game, I don't want to push any questions.

If you ever care what people think about you thats your problem

I usually have uncomfortable experiences when I get admitted to psych units and mental health hospitals. How long I stayed depended on how the staff thought I was doing both physically and mentally. I do everything I can to avoid going back to those places because I'm still traumatized from my past experiences.

I know I'm extermely late to this video considering it's four years old. First I want to say - great art! As well as video I like the calming relaxing just talk and chill vibe i get from this. the second thing is an opinion about the subject matter - Overall I would say I pretty much agree! My elaborated opinion - I do writing and drawing/animating. I enjoy d&d and fantasy mainly. But I am aware of the whole self-insert thing. Is it cringe? Yes. Should that stop you? Absolutely not! Listen if you're not hurting anyone and you're creatively expressing yourself in some way I say go for it dude! Be cringe and be free! Also self inserts are not inherently a bad thing. It's a subjective matter which is a lot less like "This can not work." and more like "I have yet to see this work in this way.". I think a good example of a 'self insert' done right is the annoying dog from undertale. I do think if your posting it online and you don't want feedback it should be said, but this is for constructive feedback of course. I think constructive feedback is perfectly fine. The only time I would say it's fine to say "ew this is cringe." is probably a case like Velma where it's a bunch of corporate executives who basically use pre existing characters and paint themselves over it for wish fulfillment with millions of dollars. And even then I'd say you should still be as constructive as possible. TL;DR As long as you're not hurting anyone you should be as free and as cringey as you want! Also I think only constructive feedback is necessary.

the reasson why everyone hate self insers these days is Velma creator wanted to self-insert so she made velma mean and dark skinned lol and dc comic animation was also self-inserted and main character changed just to fit the writer.. :D

Is it ok if you credit the artist............ and the art comes from a game and you change a lot of the cherecter disine

I'm late to your video, but I'm so very sorry to hear about your terrible experience. If I wasn't as old as I am and didn't have my own share of health problems, I'd love to either be a therapist or at least volunteer at mental hospitals in order to help comfort patients and provide them with much-needed love and understanding. I know there are good therapists and nurses out there, but the institution as a whole really needs some serious re-vamping, prioritizing compassion and listening and workable coping mechanisms, rather than simply medication. At the end when you talk about wanting to make the nurses laugh, that struck a chord with me. It sounds like people-pleasing behavior, which is something I myself am guilty of. My people-pleasing came from being an only child to a single mother who had pronounced narcissistic traits, and I'm wondering if you experienced something similar in your upbringing. You certainly don't have to share anything here, but if that rings at all true for you, that's something you may want to discuss with a qualified therapist. Sending you much love and many blessings on your continued healing journey towards wholeness. <3

Its been 9 months since u posted r u ok?? Did u die?!?!

I use ibies paint 🥲

Dude my name is j and my friends all just left me 😅 lol coincidence

I feel sorry for you, but I can't help but imagine Pusheen saying all of this. Quite an odd mental picture.

I used to be able to tell people how i feel, i cant do that anymore.

I know exactly what's wrong with me but no one listens to me. Borderline Personality Disorder. Even tho I'm on mood stabilizers that are used to treat this disorder I am still refused a diagnosis because I'm "just a hormonal teenager". Suicide attempt after suicide attempt. Cut after cut and I was still never taken seriously. I don't cut anymore but I still struggle with the day to day symptoms of this condition. It is not fun. My disorder has destroyed my relationships and body and I would never wish this pain upon anyone.

*snorts* that’s cringe. (btw for the people who don’t know this is a joke)

I completely hate cringe culture so so much. Those people are ALLERGIC to others being creative and enjoying their craft and it’s so irritating. Why do you even give a shit??? 💀 it’s their art, leave them alone. Cringe culture is also abliest as shit. You guys seriously don’t know how to leave autistic people alone.

I did 8 months in a mental hospital a year ago and I’ll never come back to it. Fuck that place.
