i was in a state hospital in paugkeepsie ny. i was 10 years old. diagnosed as hyperactive. you want to know what went on?.. you are druged and straped in a bed til you get in a coma like state. your awake. you can move but you dont want to. otherwise you are forced to take thorazine that makes you pass out. then your half awake all day. they tie you to a bed or a chair if they even think your up to somthing. i was not insane. it was a mental disorder of allways needing to move around. even home i tosed myself back and forth to sleep. at that age there. your allways afrade. with all those people around you that are insane.. i did not belong there. my parrents couldent aford anything else. there are more horrors i did not put here. take it from me. do what ever it takes to stay out of a place like that. if you end up in there. do all you can to get out. i still have the mental scars to this day from being there. you do not want to end up in there. the first step to stay out of those places is to see a doctor at home. its there job to keep you out of them. by finding the problem befor theres no turning it around..
