Description Another shot of the psychiatric ward. I spent six weeks here after a psychotic episode. I took this photo on my last day in the ward. I made sure to protect the patient's identity.

they let you bring electronic devices into there? When I went to a psych ward I couldn't have any electronic devices in there >.<

I was able to take this photo using a visitor's camera when there weren't any nurses around.

No. Out of all of the hospitals I've been in, only one ever allowed electronic devices, and they had to be locked in a safe unless you requested and had permission from a psychiatric registrar to use them for a brief period.

I agree with bringthebones, such good times, ha (sarcasm), I am just amazed at just how much our mental health system really 'helps' (sarcasm!!!) Thanks for sharing.

I agree. Only the private hospitals really help, for a price.

Unfortunately, most of us creative/artistic types, are or have been in Dante's Inferno for some years now, and we who know, care, and those who know, don't care.

I was to in a psychoclinic, but it looked really different, I was in the closed part.

Yes, this was the open ward. I was in the closed ward too, but it would have been impossible to take a photo. I hope you're doing better now

I doing a bit better now but I have to go to some kind of professional and then I have to talk about all this stuff^^...
I have taken pictures of the closed ward ,but I'll keep these for myself.
And I hope you're better to.

P.S I don't know if you know what valium is but these people tried to injekt this stuff into me, but they couldnt^^

Do you know what valium is or how it works

I think valium is an anti-anxiety drug. It's supposed to calm you down.
