Life on a Mental Health Ward: First few days

One never gets used to being in a mental/psychiatric hospital.  Every stay is a new experience.  It is also another detour in one’s desperate escape from the enemy of mental illness.

The insane asylum, loony bin, nuthouse, cuckoo house, padded palace, crazy house – alternative names used to refer to mental hospital!
All types of mental health ailments are represented in the ward with people at various stages of recovery (or at least were in those times).  There were patients sectioned under the Mental Health Act and voluntary patients like myself.
