“The Baker Act is supposed to confine really mentally ill people who are dangerous — and a kid who has a temper tantrum is not a danger to the public.”

I was a victim of UHS, its embarrassing but I needed alcohol detox and 100% voluntarily went to the ER instead of buying more alcohol and got transported to a UHS hellhole where after the nightmare was over I got my medical records and I saw they lied and wrote that I was suicidal. The idea of what happens when you die has always scared the crap out of me, I don’t do ‘suicidal’ I never have.
Now I have that slander on a medical record along with ‘bipolar’ another lie. Self medicating anxiety with alcohol, (the thing that was making anxiety worse) and alcohol dependency would have been accurate but not profitable enough for UHS so my medical record said suicidal bipolar. UHS is scum.
The same people who want to keep the beds full for profits decide who is ‘sick’ and who is well, that is about as a bad as a conflict of interest can get.
Any victims of Universal Health Services psychiatric hospitals here ? http://www.uhsinc.com/locations/
