Well, I've finally got a day to myself to post. Just got out of mental
ward last friday. I'm still trying to 'get over' how medicated they had
me. First thing they did was slap me full of ativan at the ER, then the
hospital kept me doped up on that for 5 days...until I was coherent
enough to ask to be taken off of it. I didn't know what it was at first,
I'd asked at the ER if it was a narcotic, and they'd told me no, it
wasn't. If I'd have known then what I know now, I'd have refused it. It
sure messed me up.
I'm upset with the hospital I was in. My partner, my sponsor, my
therapists, everyone tried telling them to take me off the ativan, I was
an addict. They didn't listen.
I need to find a way to make sure this doesn't happen again...like maybe
carry a card in my wallet that say's no narcotics to be given.
