Maybe this will be my life purpose / Maybe God made me suffer so I can create good

[Tyler Robinson]

This was 3 days ago.

So the psych ward experience was terrible. My family forced me to a mental hospital. They barricaded me. There was a security guard at the elevator. He wouldn't let me use it. When I tried using the stairs, the doors automatically closed (they have automatic closing doors so nobody can escape). 

I snatched the pen out of my sister's hand while she was signing consent forms and 5 security guards grabbed my hair, dragged me on the floor and escorted me to a deserted/isolated room and trapped me there. I was terrified and I began screaming out of sheer panic.. Then they strapped me on the bed and injected me with tranquilizers. After that I felt dead. 

My family felt something, they probably grew a heart and I was discharged after 7 hours of what felt like an eternity in hell. 

This experience transformed me. I cried. I felt lucky that I could escape that place. 

At the same time I contemplated on how much worse it must be for other mentally ill to be treated with such inhumanity. They are treated like a burden. 

It was by far one of the most traumatizing experiences of my life. 

 

 

 

 

Fast forward now....

I feel like the whole thing gave me a sense of purpose in life. And that purpose is to create mental health awareness and ask for a better more human treatment for those who are mentally ill.. Maybe I will do this in the future as I get stronger with time and maturity. 

Maybe God made me suffer all these wounds so I could help and become a voice for those who are defenseless and voiceless and those who are vulnerable like me. So I can make better laws and facilities for them.. 

This seems like my life purpose to me..

Improved treatment, especially in psych wards, would be a great thing to have, but it is realistically hard to improve these systems. Doctors, nurses, and other staff often have to react to situations based on worst case scenarios for the safety of the other patients and staff. It’s very hard to predict how someone in an intense mental state will react, especially when they are already showing signs of resistance.
