Does my three day involuntary hold (5150) that became a two week involuntary hold (5250) and then an unspecified (and very probably illegal) wait for an additional 4 days, because "we're waiting for the doctor to release you" count?. (yes, I know, one data point is not an average). I saw that doctor exactly 2 times during that time, for a cumulative total of maybe 3 minutes, who was simply a pusher of the latest (at the time) SNRI. The nurses emphasized it was important to "show compliance" and take their drugs, even though they were wrong and caused serious problems for months. Why? I apparently offended a psychiatrist when I insisted that escitalopram ("Lexapro") gave me mild/moderate visual disturbances (hallucination). "Lexapro doesn't do that!". Insisting it did, followed quickly with a (probably mildly rude) comment about observation-vs-theory and just-world fallacy only cut the appointment short and started the above stay. The paperwork was sensationalized fiction, with zero basis in reality. After the first 3 days, the nurses commented every single day about how unusual it was to be allowed (by insurance) such a long stay. Private insurance would never allow the expense, but apparently their scam worked on Medicare. I never generalize bad behavior into a stereotype. I'll assume your experience has been very different. I'm sure this kind of problem has a lot of variation. My stay was over 10 years ago, and I would like to believe your industry has improved in that time. It might be a good idea to look outside your normal situation with the goal of gaining a broader perspective. It is very hard to regain trust after it has been burned for legitimate reasons. That puts better doctors at an unfair disadvantage, which is unfortunate. This is why it's so important proactively find the "bad apples" and actually fix the situation before bad behavior becomes normalized[1].
