🧵 Since writing about my experience of psych hospital the women who’ve told me their stories proves these places aren’t safe for women. Women at their most vulnerable with no escape, with various other issues & often have male induced trauma. As a result of our experiences.. 1/6
We don’t trust authority or those who are meant to care if we need support or are in a crisis. Me & other women purposely avoid asking for help or tellingly told by medical professionals that psych facilities are best avoided even when very unwell. 2/6
Avoiding these places is not always possible. Women, who can be as young as 18 like I was require a safe single sex environment to get better/learn to manage. Where they aren’t in high alert 24/7. That feeling never leaves & nor does the genuine trauma of being inside. 3/6
