Got admitted to the mental health observation unit for 5 days early last year. I wanted to go in as a private patient and this wasn’t offered to me. I also believe I wasn’t ready to leave the facility due to the fact I was taking Prozac and that affected me badly. I couldn’t eat, couldn’t function and my work suffered as a result. Then my care was given back to the GP.
This facility is one of the best in WA and if I couldn’t be there longer than 5 days, I believe I should have been moved somewhere else.
