loony indeed
In January of last year, I was put in the loony hospital for suicidal depression and anxiety. I was good, stayed the whole week and a half. But the girl in the room next to me..oh dear.
She was admitted about two days after I was, and she seemed normal, as most of my fellow patients were. During the times that we were to stay in our rooms, I would constantly hear the girl banging on her window and yelling "HEY! HEEEEY! HEY YOU! LET ME OUT!" at the people in the street(who were amusingly frightened) and trying to break the window(which was covered in a locked metal cage with steel mesh). Half the night.
One afternoon she actually barged into my room(a very punishable offence for both of us) to check my own window. After a while she decided to give up and instead try and run out of the unit while no one was looking. Of course the door was locked, she kept trying to open it though, which caused the nurse to notice and call a "code 1" on her, which means that all the strongest nurses in the entire hospital will run to assist. She was put in a padded isolation cell for the rest of the time I was there, but continued her "HEY LET ME OUT" routine.
I kinda miss the place..entertainment abound y'know.
