[QUOTE="jakeman, post: 3785897, member: 10690"] Not shocked. Not even a little bit surprised. A friend of mine checked his teenage daughter into St. Anthony's for an evaluation. She was 18. He left her, and they said they would take care of her and let him know. She was clearly in distress and in need of help. They released her without telling him, cause she was an adult and all that, and she didn't wanna stay. She walked to her Aunt's house up off 23'rd and brushed her teeth with a 12 ga. It ruined him. He was a recovering alcoholic and he couldn't stand it, so he drank. Then came the loritabs, by the handful, purchased legally at first then illegally. He lost his business, his family, and then he lost his life. He didn't really commit suicide, at least not all at once. It was slow. It was painful to watch. I can't imagine what it was to live it, except he probably wasn't cognizant. He died alone. He self medicated himself to death. Her mental illness killed him just like it killed her. We need beds. We need people to take care of these people. As it is, they're just disposable humans. History will look on us unkindly for how we have treated the most vulnerable among us. [/QUOTE]
