Springwood Hospital

I thought intense one on one therapy and other therapy would help me because I had a lot happen in my life and was overwhelmed making me real tired so I couldn't work. I drove there and Well, Cynthia that did the interview twisted my words around to get me admitted on an involuntary basis. I told her I did my home work and since they did not offer therapy I had other places that I was going to. She told me that I had to stay and the Bedford mental care group was going to come and see if I could go home. Then 2 Bedford Police came in and said Cynthia told them I said that I was planning on jumping out into traffic to end my life......Lied, lied to the police so they put a 48 hour hold so I had to stay so I would not go jump into traffic. I am sure she and Springwood needed to fill all their beds so to bill my insurance over a thousand or more dollars a day. All Springwood is now is a holding tank that somehow they trap people that came needing real help turn into prisoners. All I talked to came to get help but with all of us....we did not get to work on our problems at all. All time there was spent on how do I get out of this *** hole with a lot of nurse Ratches like in the movie "One Flew Over the Cookoo's Nest" When I finally got free from jail there I told my horror story to my doctor, husband and friends. They were shocked. When I left Springwood and the doctors never knew about the problems/situation I came there for in the first place. They didn't know or care. Also......very important and dangerous. I wrote down all medications I was taking when I went in for my interview. I ask over and over again and they would not give me my medication that I took everyday....some of which I could have gone into convulsions for stopping abruptly. They kept water and drinks locked up and I was dehydrated the whole time I was there. I hurt so bad they whole time I was there because the beds were wooden platforms with a hard plastic thing I guess they call a mattress. I have a bad back and they would not let me have a pillow. I have to use pillows for my pain to support my body to keep pain away. They offered no therapy, no counceling……...like I said no one that worked there ask or knew anything about my issues that led me there in the first place. I could go on and on...;..;I have learned from this nightmare. I am putting together my own OUT PATIENT THERAPY from real professional doctors and therapists that will help me and treat me with some DIGNITY AND RESPECT.
