Last year I lost my 16 year old daughter and have been having a hard time dealing with it. I turned to this hospital looking for a psychiatrist to get some help and maybe get on the right anti depressants. Well I went in for an evaluation before going to work and met with a Dr Lopez. I felt safe and just let it all out on how I was feeling. Him and another doctor asked me to meet with one more doctor and then I could go to work. I was fine with that and went downstairs with them, where they proceeded to lock me up, tie me down, and shoot me up with drugs. They said I was a danger to myself and they felt like I was going to commit suicide. I told them over and over again in the first interview I was looking for help and not looking to kill myself, but whatever I said didnt matter they already knew what they were going to do to me before I got there (is what I believe). My family fought them on this but they still would not release me. Instead of getting help like I needed I was punished for my child dying and subdued to more hurt then I have already been through. What they did to me was wrong and NEVER will I seek help from anyone again due to this. Beware of going there........if you do go make sure someone is with you and DO NOT go downstairs at any time. \r
The same time I was put there against my will, a friend of my daughters was on another floor. She tried to commit suicide by sliting her wrists. She was only kept there for two days cause she didnt have the insurance and she is only 16. I was subject to a week there for no reason...........what is wrong with this picture?
