Anything else?
After taking an overdose of painkillers, i was taken to the Queens medical centre, and from the start i was treated like i was the most evil person that has ever existed. I was woken up at 2 in the morning by a nurse who wanted to tell me how disgusted they were with me having to try and take my own life. I could not feel any lower. The only good thing that has come out of this is that i was referred to a psychiatrist who diagnosed me with bipolar and borderline personality disorder and now i can find ways of coping with my illnessess. This happened a while ago, but it is only now that i am able to open up and tell people about my experience. It was the worst period of my life. To this day it still plays on my mind I still feel ashamed by the treatment i experienced . I just hope that nurse never succumbs to a serious mental illness.
