Discussion Being sectioned

[sorrowful]

took a few too many xanax. no intent to kill myself. just the usual gibberish, nodding and unable to walk. got an ambulance called by someone and they're holding me in the hospital. sectioning me for however long. how is this allowed? this is absolutely not aiding me in any way . i'm stuck in a small room with hardly anything but a phone, not allowed out to see my sick grandma. i'd be fine if it wasn't for this. can't shower or do anything alone. fuck the systems. how do they think it'll help?

Been in the same situation twice. Felt like I was being held hostage. I'm sure you get more priviledges in prison.

That must be awful but anyway I hope you get out of there soon.

definitely feel hostage i cannot stay here this is awful. non stop breakdowns and 2 attempted escaped. no clue what to do, other family have not bothered to come.

used my past attempts to section me, no clue how they can do that. it's horrible we are imprisoned here, and locked up for simply wanting to leave this world. thank you for your words.

Ughhhh it is the worst. Did they say which kind of section they're putting you under?

It's so horrible how humans treat other humans. This will certainly not help becoming better soon. I hope you be released soon and I hope you can find peace somehow! All best wishes ans a *virtual HUG* :-)

Section 4. Should be out in a few days after some assessments, really not trying to end up in a ward.

UK

Thank you so much, best wishes to you too.

Edit: (I don't think I can make another post without replying..)
Apologies if I haven't made much sense at any point, still a little drowsy. Also feel like a caged animal due to the fact they thought it was a suicide attempt, not at all listening to me. Worker in my room at all times, bathroom, etc. Gave me a whole pro life lecture about how wonderful life is.. I don't understand why people can't respect some people want to leave, though they're doctors so I guess they have to.
