Did they give you yard time for sun gazing?

No....and what is funny is that is when I discovered it. I gazed at the sun thru the windows at all hours of the day and it helped me more than I could ever explain.

It's amazing how the little things will bother the fuck out of you when you're in that state. And a chair that is a fraction of an inch off......and you can't figure it out for a few hours, absolutely maddening

Funny you mention that....

The tables in our main gathering area were round and had red and black checker boards painted on the tables. It drove me nuts that after breakfast the chairs would be EVERYWHERE!!! the chairs were so heavy but I would spend my morning pushing them into place.....4 per table with a few tables left with an open spot for the wheel chair guys. The nurses at first told me not to do it, but they realized I wasnt listening and that I wasnt hurting anyone by organizing. By the 5th day they waved and smiled at me and would chat with me as I organized the rooms. I would organize every room after meals so that they were nice and neat for the next meal. i figured this would probably also help with other patients mental stability because we were so trained to have uniformed stuff in our live that chaotic rooms agitated us. Maybe it helped and maybe it didnt. All i know is that i got one hell of a workotu from it and it made m e feel better.

Spent 15 hours at JPS once for an Eval, screw that shit.. fuckin bat shit crazy mofo's.

Hell it was boring as hell during the day.. the circus started up at about 2 am when the pretty lil slutty looking girl started running around stripping down. I was up for the show but everything else that night didn't do anything but interrupt my sleep.

Well, I met the most dangerous man I have ever met in my life there. I could only describe this gentleman as a caged wolf. He had very long hair and a long beard......looked like a viking. He was heavyset and had that look in his eye. I was sitting at a table alone and he roughly sat down in front of me. I usually have no problems with anyone on the planet and you will not find me afraid of anyone.....but this guy made me uncomfortable. You could just tell how fucking dangerous and deadly he was.............and the kicker?.............he wore a fucking adult diaper.

He asked if I played chess. I said "yes, we should definitely do that!" apparently this man had been there for years and hadnt spoken with anyone the entire time so it kind of stopped the whole place when he sat down with me. I looked at a nurse and smiled and she hurried over with an unsure look on her face. i asked politely if we could have some chess pieces and she hurried back with some.

Was he attacked by a dog as a child?

The baddest people I've ever met, the guys who radiated 'fuck off' tended to be the ones that needed to talk with someone the most but had to find a connection with that person first.

We sat there and played chess and he told me of his martial arts and other deadly shit he knew of. It was very interesting......we could be laughign abotu cartoons we remembered of the past and then he would tell me of some moves he patented that were deadly. well, he asked me if I would like to learn them. I was very unsure but was also like "well lets see whats gonna happen next." I told him "yeah, I would love to learn some stuff!" Now, you have to imagine a large viking in scrubs with an adult diaper getting ready to show me some "moves" and I had no fucking idea of what was gonna happen! He very slowly and very articulately showed me some serious dirty kill a motherfucker quickly moves. It took a nurse about 2 seconds to rush over and try and stop what she thought was happening. I waved her off with a smile and told her what was going on.......about 5 minutes later, we had the entire nurses station watching a slow motion martial arts instruction given by this guy and he showed me some seriously bone breaking kill you quick stuff. It was scary and exciting and amazing. he would barely touch me in a few select spots around the ribs and neck with a well placed palm and you just knew how it would fuck you up so badly. for the rest of the week we played chess and he taught me more stuff. he was very quiet and kept to himself for the most part. I wouldnt see him all day long except for about an hour he would come out of his room and find me. I even introduced him to my parents on visitors day.

[Jester]

Let me tell you something.....you truly put your life in God's hands when you let a large viking in a diaper put you in a headlock designed to snap your neck and you trust him not to.

[Jester]

God, there is so much stuff I can cover in this.....so much stuff I remember every day.

There was this one guy that looked like Jesus. He was a mess and i found out later that he was a former Vietnam POW. I would push his long hair out of his face and back behind his ears and you could see such a gentle face. He ate an apple in the most peculiar way. He would start at the top and eat the center out with a spoon......core and all. by the time he was done, the apple would still look like an apple but it would have a spoon sized hole in the top and the fucker was completely hollow like a cup. it was wicked! I would go and get him up in the morning and he would have his room demolished. he would have made him a bunker out of mattresses and pillows. it was very sad and very cool at the same time.

[Jester]

there was this one old guy that had been tortured severely as a POW. he would wander the halls all day long and have a very heated argument with his captors.....all day long. it was very emotional and heated and it was all like it was mumbled under his breath. I wanted to help this poor man so very much but he was locked forever into this place in time.

[Jester]

i will tell yall some more if you like. every day had some interesting stuff. very exciting because you had no idea what was gonna happen next.

When seeing this thread, I automatically assume you did not drink the wine, rather you gave yourself a wine enema.

lmfao. a hydrocodone and a damned good glass of Merlot that went with the Tbone that my dad cooked.

Just kinda felt like sharing my experience. Everyone thinks a mental hospital is padded rooms and straight jackets but it is not like that at all. Bunch of bored guys pissed off that they cant do pushups cause the nurses keep telling them to calm down.
