There are so many variables it is impossible to say. Statutes of limitations for filing medical malpractice claims vary by state. Most states have a maximum deadline to file a claim. Several states make exceptions to their filing deadlines for cases involving fraud or other dishonest behavior, a psychiatric specialty.
Medical malpractice, civil rights violating, insurance and billing fraud... the list of crimes perpetrated by the psychiatric industry is certainly a long one.
I did not get a hearing for weeks , although by law I should have had one within five days of being hospitalized. That is unlawful imprisonment.
They wrote suicidal and bipolar on my medical records. I never said anything about suicide, all I wanted was detoxification from alcohol. I woke up so sick. I had been drinking every day for about 2 weeks after getting stressed out and picking it up again, a relapse. Instead of going to the store to buy more alcohol to avoid painful withdrawals shakes and anxiety I went to the ER and asked for alcohol detoxification. I was transported to a psych facilty owned by "Universal Health Services"
I put some of the story in the comments on MIA where I found this website. I also put a link back to our forum
https://www.madinamerica.com/2017/06/political-abuse-psychiatry-america/Anyway how can they accuse me of bipolar ? They knew nothing about me and you can't make a bipolar diagnosis hours into alcohol withdrawal. And "suicidal", how does saying to oneself this alcohol is killing me I need help qualify as "suicidal" ? There was no reason for an involetary lockup. I learned my lesson about relapse, I wanted off the booze and to get back to the gym and my AA meetings.
But this is how UHS hospitals make there money, lies and fraud. See
https://www.buzzfeed.com/rosalindadams/intakeI wrote about the inpatient abuse in the comments of the MIA story, it was a wicked nightmare. They wanted me on all these nueroleptics and mood pills and I rejected that. I was doing so well at the gym lifting and feeling great before my foolish alcohol relapse now they want to take that all away and make me into sick mental patient on a high powered multi drug cocktail , no thanks.
If I just took the drugs, followed orders and subjected my body to that crap when the nightmare was over I would be in the same place but instead of alcohol withdrawal I would have to endure the wicked insomnia and anxiety of getting off all the brain disabling zombie downer anhedoina crap they would have saturated me with.
My rejection of "treatment" resulted in the usual threats of assault and needle penetration rape drug injection threats. And of course my reaction to these barbarians and their very scary threats were labelled "symptoms of the illness".
I bet if I caught one of the staff alone on the street with some of my friends standing by ready to assault if they did not cooperate and said I was going to stick a needle in them and inject drugs their reaction would also include "rapid speech" and "agitation".
If readers have in their mind a situation where I was being aggressive and brought the nightmare on myself that is completely wrong. All I did is say that massive drug cocktail they prescibed without even talking to me (and that did not include medication for alcohol withdrawal) was too much and I was not taking it.
I am not a stupid person, talk loud and use aggressive body language they assault you and do a needle penetration rape injection and I knew that. Saw them do it to others, constant violence in that hellhole so I quietly said everything I had to say.
I survived psychiatry.
