I was never admitted in a normal state; every time I was led there, I was in the grip of a severe psychological relapse\u2014forced, and heavily intoxicated. I would be completely sedated, losing consciousness in mere seconds, only to wake up the next morning wandering the corridors of the asylum in absolute shock, wondering: <em>How on earth did I end up here?<\/em><\/p><div id=\"dev95-2843353709\" class=\"dev95- dev95-entity-placement\"><center>\r\n<script>\r\n  atOptions = {\r\n    'key' : '4ba6b6513c00e0ba76511f798ae56401',\r\n    'format' : 'iframe',\r\n    'height' : 50,\r\n    'width' : 320,\r\n    'params' : {}\r\n  };\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script src=\"https:\/\/www.highperformanceformat.com\/4ba6b6513c00e0ba76511f798ae56401\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n\r\n\t<\/center><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On my very first day, the thought of escaping crossed my mind\u2014in fact, I spent all my days there looking for a loophole to flee. I tried to escape repeatedly, and I actually succeeded in pulling off my plans several times. I had no fondness for the medications they forced me to take; they caused me severe drowsiness and chronic constipation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the past, these drugs negatively affected my condition instead of healing me, plunging me into psychotic and schizophrenic states. At the beginning of my treatment journey, I suffered from violent spasms and a deeply unsettling nerve sensation in my legs\u2014a sharp numbness that prevented me from sitting still, which was excruciatingly painful. In later years, however, these symptoms vanished completely, as if my body had finally adapted to these psychotropic medications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite my hatred for that psychiatric hospital, I cannot deny the benefits of my stays. After my release, my condition would stabilize for years, and my life would return to normal. They didn&#8217;t provide treatment based on an accurate psychiatric diagnosis, as I refused to cooperate or ever reveal what was happening inside me. Instead, they relied on data gathered from my family to evaluate my state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although an exact diagnosis of my disorders was never reached, the three medications they prescribed proved effective in improving my mental and psychological condition; they were broad-spectrum drugs that treated a wide array of disorders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The doctors never subjected me to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) during my repeated admissions, nor did they suggest injectable treatments, owing to my rapid response to medication. Furthermore, they recognized through our conversations that I possessed a highly conscious and intelligent side. They knew that a part of me was not sick at all, but rather held a mind that matched\u2014and even surpassed\u2014those of healthy individuals. I am fully aware of every detail of my illness; despite suffering from severe schizophrenia, I remain entirely conscious of my condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I lean toward the probability that my primary disorder is schizophrenia, as I meet all the diagnostic criteria for it, alongside co-occurring psychological disorders that include symptoms of bipolar disorder, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and social anxiety. I also find traits in myself closely resembling histrionic personality disorder, in addition to episodes of paranoia and delusions of grandeur\u2014all of which I attribute to my underlying schizophrenia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To return to that facility, officially named the <strong>&#8220;Bethlehem Psychiatric Hospital&#8221;<\/strong> and located in the city of Bethlehem: it is a place utterly lacking in basic care and professionalism. Those in charge lack both competence and accountability. Furthermore, like other Palestinian Authority institutions, it suffers from deep-rooted administrative corruption and dysfunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The situation there is dismal on many levels. The prescribing psychiatrists seek to discharge patients as quickly as possible, and the facility severely lacks essential services like basic hygiene and decent food. Moreover, all cases are lumped together in an unsupportive environment where patients are deprived of their most basic rights, allowed only a single cigarette per hour. Not to mention the theft of patients&#8217; personal belongings by the medical staff, rampant violence among residents without any intervention, and the presence of neglected elderly patients relieving themselves everywhere. It is truly a deplorable state\u2014what could possibly motivate me to go there?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I couldn&#8217;t find soap or toilet paper, and I abstained from sex and masturbation for an entire month; I was worried about my sexual health, as my psychological state completely eradicated any sexual thoughts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This facility is the only one of its kind in the West Bank within the Palestinian territories, and it is a public, state-run institution, not private. I have never visited any other hospital, as if it were the only option available. Treatment, food, and lodging there are completely free of charge\u2014which is why my mother is happy about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In conclusion, I have no desire to return to that hospital for as long as I live; in fact, I don&#8217;t even want to lay eyes on it again. Those running it should be ashamed of themselves\u2014they possess toxic minds and hearts. Even if my stay there was a therapeutic necessity, it remains a harsh and deeply unjust experience. I have been compliant with my medications for nearly four months now, so I do not believe I will ever need to return to that place, and I sincerely hope I never have to.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div><p id=\"pvc_stats_930\" class=\"pvc_stats total_only\" data-element-id=\"930\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.0\" viewbox=\"0 0 502 315\" preserveaspectratio=\"xMidYMid meet\"><g transform=\"translate(0,332) scale(0.1,-0.1)\" fill=\"\" stroke=\"none\"><path d=\"M2394 3279 l-29 -30 -3 -207 c-2 -182 0 -211 15 -242 39 -76 157 -76 196 0 15 31 17 60 15 243 l-3 209 -33 29 c-26 23 -41 29 -80 29 -41 0 -53 -5 -78 -31z\"\/><path d=\"M3085 3251 c-45 -19 -58 -50 -96 -229 -47 -217 -49 -260 -13 -295 52 -53 146 -42 177 20 16 31 87 366 87 410 0 70 -86 122 -155 94z\"\/><path d=\"M1751 3234 c-13 -9 -29 -31 -37 -50 -12 -29 -10 -49 21 -204 19 -94 39 -189 45 -210 14 -50 54 -80 110 -80 34 0 48 6 76 34 21 21 34 44 34 59 0 14 -18 113 -40 219 -37 178 -43 195 -70 221 -36 32 -101 37 -139 11z\"\/><path d=\"M1163 3073 c-36 -7 -73 -59 -73 -102 0 -56 133 -378 171 -413 34 -32 83 -37 129 -13 70 36 67 87 -16 290 -86 209 -89 214 -129 231 -35 14 -42 15 -82 7z\"\/><path d=\"M3689 3066 c-15 -9 -33 -30 -42 -48 -48 -103 -147 -355 -147 -375 0 -98 131 -148 192 -74 13 15 57 108 97 206 80 196 84 226 37 273 -30 30 -99 39 -137 18z\"\/><path d=\"M583 2784 c-38 -19 -67 -74 -58 -113 9 -42 211 -354 242 -373 16 -10 45 -18 66 -18 51 0 107 52 107 100 0 39 -1 41 -124 234 -80 126 -108 162 -133 173 -41 17 -61 16 -100 -3z\"\/><path d=\"M4250 2784 c-14 -9 -74 -91 -133 -183 -95 -150 -107 -173 -107 -213 0 -55 33 -94 87 -104 67 -13 90 8 211 198 130 202 137 225 78 284 -27 27 -42 34 -72 34 -22 0 -50 -8 -64 -16z\"\/><path d=\"M2275 2693 c-553 -48 -1095 -270 -1585 -649 -135 -104 -459 -423 -483 -476 -23 -49 -22 -139 2 -186 73 -142 361 -457 571 -626 285 -228 642 -407 990 -497 242 -63 336 -73 660 -74 310 0 370 5 595 52 535 111 1045 392 1455 803 122 121 250 273 275 326 19 41 19 137 0 174 -41 79 -309 363 -465 492 -447 370 -946 591 -1479 653 -113 14 -422 18 -536 8z m395 -428 c171 -34 330 -124 456 -258 112 -119 167 -219 211 -378 27 -96 24 -300 -5 -401 -72 -255 -236 -447 -474 -557 -132 -62 -201 -76 -368 -76 -167 0 -236 14 -368 76 -213 98 -373 271 -451 485 -162 444 86 934 547 1084 153 49 292 57 452 25z m909 -232 c222 -123 408 -262 593 -441 76 -74 138 -139 138 -144 0 -16 -233 -242 -330 -319 -155 -123 -309 -223 -461 -299 l-81 -41 32 46 c18 26 49 83 70 128 143 306 141 649 -6 957 -25 52 -61 116 -79 142 l-34 47 45 -20 c26 -10 76 -36 113 -56z m-2057 25 c-40 -58 -105 -190 -130 -263 -110 -324 -59 -707 132 -981 25 -35 42 -64 37 -64 -19 0 -241 119 -326 174 -188 122 -406 314 -532 468 l-58 71 108 103 c185 178 428 349 672 473 66 33 121 60 123 61 2 0 -10 -19 -26 -42z\"\/><path d=\"M2375 1950 c-198 -44 -350 -190 -395 -379 -18 -76 -8 -221 19 -290 114 -284 457 -406 731 -260 98 52 188 154 231 260 27 69 37 214 19 290 -38 163 -166 304 -326 360 -67 23 -215 33 -279 19z\"\/><\/g><\/svg><\/i> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dev95.site\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif?resize=16%2C16&#038;ssl=1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p><div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By the Author \/ Source: abuaram.site I have always harbored a deep dread of entering the psychiatric hospital.
