,I just left a psych ward a week ago. I have been kept there for a month. I'm not going to disclose why I was there. I am asking if I can sue the staff for how I was treated. I was involuntarily committed and I had to sign paper work that would ensure my 72 hour surveillance and they would release me based on my behavior. I was being non compliant, only because I was treated poorly. I was forced certain types of medication. I was kept longer, because I had a fight with the nurses at 3am. They enforced curfew at 12am, and I chose not to listen. But that didn't give the three women the right to pin me down.. I am a man, but one of them was large and the other two were about my size.. I weigh 170 and lift and these women were not only rude, but were surprisingly strong.
