"Vile hospital."

The national psychosis unit is a disgusting. They treat people like lab rats. They did not listen to my concerns, I was discharged with no further support after two and a half years admission in different hospitals. The nurses would fall asleep when I was on 1:1. They would frequently speak in different languages. I was restrained by two men for trying to leave me room with no explanation why. I was restrained many times while I was there. The two years in previous hospitals I was never restrained. Since leaving that hospital and been in others and I having been restrained. I was discharged in a worse place than when I went in. The consultant didn't listen to me at all, they would increase medication above the BNF with no thought for my physical health. Over all it was a complete waste of time. It cost a lot of Money to refer me there that my area had to pay for. The treatment I received there was no more specialist than what I would have gotten in my local. Property kept going missing. I could go on.
