I’m kinda on risk for being put into one, so I kinda wanted to learn some stuff about how is it inside those. I think my biggest fear there is boredoom. Like, will I be able to videocall friends and/or listen to music there? Will my mp3 player/portable chinese retro emulator/phone/any eletronic be confiscated there?

      Best part is, when people have been fucked over by these psych wards, repeatedly (I have friends who were there 10+ times, had ECT that damaged their memories, etc) they tend to believe that all mental health care is designed to shut them down while taking their money. So we’re discouraging people who need treatment the most from actually getting it ever again.
