Seclusion Room #3

In The Wind

The wall color looks like you want to throw up. That has to be one of the ugliest colors I have seen. If I was a patient I would get sick sitting in that room.

I would think people would be creeped out entering these places that is probably why you don't see lots of graffitti.

Locking people up who are not prisoners is humane what is wrong with people.

Thorazine Dream

In The Wind

I lived in a grouphome I wouldn't say it was the same as a mental hospital but some things were similar. I was there while in fostercare. They gave kids medication as well in these places. The staff never really told you the truth of what was going on, and never tried to understand you as a person. I always heard we will do what is best for you, but their actions said they really didn't care. You couldn't trust people in these places they weren't family. I think if people would just treat others well, and actually help them then they would be better off. The staff don't want you to progress especially if they didn't like you. When the kids did something the staff didn't like they were restrained I just think it is wrong. The time out was a day of sitting in a chair if you talked hours were added on. It was bad there but I think a mental hospital is so much worse. People were tortured here thinking one day they would leave, and they never left. Even buried on the grounds that is creepy. I only pray that their souls are free, and in everlasting peace.

Sad to read that about your mother. I just think places like this are used to control people not help them. Giving people medication is not solving problems just covering them up. Electric shock treatments that is worse than what people get in prison. How people can even justify this is right is beyond me they just don't have emotions. I have yet to hear about any success stories from patients who lived in these places.

Houses back then didn't have lots of bars like this. This was a prison most of these people probably never had freedom again how sickening. These pictures tell us a story on the outside what we couldn't see when this place was in operation.

How could these people be bad they didn't commit any crimes. They were locked up because someone didn't want to be around them I think that is wrong. I don't know how people can look at places like this, and think this was the right thing to do. Imagine being treated this way knowing you will probably never leave this place.

So if the gate infront of the window is to bring air in then what is it doing above the door also. .

Give me a break a bunch of cry babies on this forum. Mental places like this is what they are mental mind control. All the staff cared about was paychecks, and drugs. Out of all the patients that entered here I have yet to hear from one who left, and had a decent life. It is real easy to give people drugs, and lock them away rather than actually trying to solve the problems to help them in society. It takes people to go to school to learn how to care for others? What type of person are you in the first place no emotion at all. Since some people make quick judgements on here about others I'm sure your attitude was the same with your patients. You were apart of the problem with these hospitals, and you don't want to admit it.

Destroyed

In The Wind

Two orbs with two different colors, and nobody even noticed it that is not dust or light reflection. When bad things happen it makes a negative environment that houses lots of demons. Ghosts in these places are demons posing as staff, and patients. Chances are many people were mistreated, and slowly killed when staff had enough of them.

Rusted Words

In The Wind

The staff claim the patients would hurt others. Than why care if the patients wrote on the wall since they would kick the walls anyway.

One of the words I make out on the wall says nurses.

There is no way that is graffiti you can barely understand what it says for starters, and the rust indicates it has been there a long time. The paint was probably chipped off by the patients fingernails. I don't see any writing marks from any writing tool.

They didn't care about their patients I doubt they would care about the walls. Especially if it happens often since the patients were treated worse than animals.

Yeah it is real easy to lock people up in a room rather than try to talk to them, and find out what they want or how they feel. I would go nuts to if everytime I'm upset people would ignore me.

Black, and white duality. It means good, and evil people simply come here to get brainwashed.
