Is it normal i haven't been admitted to the loony bin?
I've met lots of people who have been diagnosed with various mental illness who have all been sent to the psych ward multiple times. Often for very minor things and sometimes for really stupid things like assaulting a police officer.
Somehow I have managed to not go despite doing all kinds of stupid things and telling the psychiatrist about things that even people on here say I should be locked up for.
I've been arrested multiple times and they usually let me directly out and tell me to go home and take my medication.
I have been banned from numerous places, destroyed property, trespassed everywhere, caused problems where I live, destroyed way more property, stolen newspaper machines, have psychotic rage in the store, drive like a maniac to where friends wont get in my car, thrown buckets of bouncy balls off buildings downtown, drunkenly disrupt resterants, argue with state employees, burned down places while experimenting with explosives, called bomb threats to the space needle because I thought there was a bomb, etc...
Yet I am usually just asked to leave.
Whenever anyone else does this stuff they seem to go away for a while.
