I work with the criminally insane (well, I stopped a few months ago - but I have 12 years experience) and it happens more than you think! ![]() Rosa is awesome, Rosa is fine, Rosa didn't write this... |

Making a mental note to sit down and chat with you about your past job, City. That sounds fascinating! ![]() |

Yeah, its a really tough job to be honest, and due to a number of factors it just got more and more dangerous and staff assaults were happening so often that I really couldn't stay mental health wise :( ![]() Rosa is awesome, Rosa is fine, Rosa didn't write this... |

Netflix always has a tendancy to glorify it, but mostly our day is spent trying not to get punched in the face or stabbed so....! ![]() Rosa is awesome, Rosa is fine, Rosa didn't write this... |

My sister used to work in the same setting. She was almost physically hurt many times. Such a mentally taxing job, I was happy when she switched fields. Fascinating psychology though! ![]() |

Patients have to look after themselves as well. I remember a few years ago, my son was in SASH, the state mental hospital here after trying to commit suicide. He called me after about a week and told me to get him out due to the violence. He said he was afraid to go out of his room, which was no good for him theraputically. After many calls I was able to get him transferred to a private hospital. But the stories he told...I can feel for health care workers. ![]() |
