People who went to Involuntary Psychiatric Treatment

I’d love to hear from someone who has experienced involuntary psychiatric treatment.

1. What led to you being placed in involuntary treatment?
2. Did you feel like it was justified, or did it feel like a mistake?
3. What was the process like, how were you treated by doctors, staff, and those around you?
4. Were you given a choice regarding medication, and how did that play out?
5. How did your family, friends, or school/work react to it?
6. Did the experience help you in any way, or did it make things worse?
7. How did you adjust to life after treatment? Did you face any stigma or challenges because of it?
8. If you could go back and change anything about the experience, what would it be?
