Anxiety and depression

i was an inpatient for 2 weeks at Yare ward. My experience overall was pretty decent. However, staff need to realise that being there is pretty scary. Through no fault of theirs, people with mild to extreme MH issues are bulked together. Witnessing some of the behaviours and distress of other patients can be very overwhelming. I am an adult and have lived a bit so was alright as a whole but I witnessed a young girl petrified at the actions of others. One long term patient whom I know is unwell shouts and swears constantly . Walks around naked. Also steals from other patients. Not ideal when you are trying to get well. Not a huge amount of encouragement . If you stayed in your room all day every day you'd get left to it. Kitchen staff absolutely brilliant. Nigel one of the cleaners extremely pleasant too. Tod is a gem as well as Devan .
