Hello, I took too many pills about a week ago (week ago) and have been staying at a closed psychatric unit since. I’m german btw and the psychiatry is in germany obviously (und ja es gibt jeden Abend nur Brot mit Aufschnitt und ich könnt kotzen). I will not answer too personal questions or in depth questions abt the overdose (what I took, how much etc.).
This is my first closed unit, I have been in open ones couple of years ago. Ask me anything 🙂
Did a big oopsie and now I’m in a closed psychiatric unit (in germany) AMA

How are you in a closed unit on a phone? Did you sneak it in?
were they proper pills for a proper attempt or was it something stupid like fistfuls of m&m’s and hoping diabetes would kick in real quick?
Are you ok?
How are you feeling today?
What’s difference between closed vs open unit?
he’s not answering. maybe he found more pills.
Ve haf vays ov making you talk.
Not very secure if you are on your phone. Mine had plastic cutlery.
Is there any food you’re craving besides Kotzbrot mit Aufstrich?
Really hope you come out if all this ok.
Do you have lasting problems medical from od
.
Do you regret it
I hope psych wards are better in Germany than in the UK…. 😔
Hope you get through this, heal up and can get out of there relatively unharmed.
Warm vibes and good luck to you! 😊
I enjoyed the (about a week ago) call back.

What kind of pills?
What made you attempt?
How old are you
Who took you to emergency?
Take care of yourself. The consequences of a successful attempt are utter shit for a whole community, not only close family.
What’s your job? What kind of work do you do?
What’s the daily schedule like?
They let you have unrestricted access to a phone? When I was in a psych ward in the US after attempting suicide, they let me write down some phone numbers and them stowed my valuables in a lockbox. Also is it mostly people like you in there or more severe mental illness and drug users like the one I was in?
Hope all turns up good for you. Cheers from Slovenia!
