Narcissism and corruption in mental health

***Trigger Warning***

I gave my 2 week notice for my job today because of corruption in the mental health field. I work in an adult foster case and I feel my years of college were all just a waste. I said the only reason I'm even giving them a 2 week notice is because I feel bad these other patients have to put up with this narcissist and feel bad for leaving them. I already had another job lined up anyway that is not much less pay for much easier work. I feel both angry and depressed though. I worked and spent all this money on school and now have to change what I even want to do with my life because I cannot handle the stress. I realize the narcissist is mentally ill and will never recover. The problem is his mother has pull because she is on the board. If this man were anyone else he would end up in prison probably getting killed unless they put him in protective custody. The crimes he has committed(pedophelia being just one) would put him in prison if he wasn't mentally ill. I do think he is mentally ill and truely has NPD but it is so bad he is basically allowed to harass the other patients and get away with it. All we can do is send him to his room. These other patients are actually very good people but cannot function enough to work or do normal daily activities. Some are almost not even functional at all. I feel so bad from them. The other workers all seem to feel the same way as far as I know. We have tried getting him to switch to a different home but his mom always puts up a stink about it. Have they ever thought of setting up a home for only NPD people that have to be institutionalized? Then they can see how it feels to suffer harassment from someone with NPD. Don't mean to wish suffering on anyone but sometimes it is part of punishment. Even though I will never work in a place where it is cool for the mentally ill to get away with harassing the other mentally ill, what can I even do about this? His mom is the real problem. This guy is stuck being in a home for the rest of his life but he has protection from his mom. He is smart enough to know this and uses it to his advantage. It's all a game to him he gets off on it. I've tried to reason with the guy but someone this bad you can see why they are here for life. It is not fair to the other patients that have to put up with him. Stress is just part of the job but I cannot see these other patients suffer any further. I went into helping the mentally ill to make a difference because I care and want to help these people. Not see them harassed because their mommy is another manipulative crooked narcissist. I wish we could just move all the other patients to a different home. I know there is a lot more corruption in life than people realize but in the mental health field like this is taking things too far.

Maybe you can make a difference by writing this up on consumer complaint sites.

http://www.ripoffreport.com

http://www.pissedconsumer.com


Search engines will automatically discover most reports, meaning that within just a few days or weeks, your report may be found on search engines when consumers search, using key words relating to your reports.

This works on everything mental health, bad doctors and abusive inpatient hospitals ect.

They don't like when what goes on behind closed doors is posted for the world to see.

Before the internet people had to do stuff like write letters to the better business bureau or goto the media and hope they helped, well things have changed.
I survived psychiatry.
