What's with all these bi-polar people?

I could tell you some great stories from people who have worked with those in institutions but I dont have time right now

It really can be like 'medication time' from One Flew Over

I've got a mate who works in a nut
house and I've had the pleasure of
going in one once to see someone I
knew who had lost the plot.
It was like walking into something
out of resident evil! Zombies
everywhere. Actually scared me a
little. Some freaky shit!

I have been in a 'nuthouse' once to
visit a relative. Everyone seemed
normal. I had a nice roast dinner
and apple pie. So did they. Only
difference was I could leave and
they couldn't. (well, not the ONLY
difference, but the only visible one).

When I went in they were all noticeably crazy. One guy was roaming the corridors asking everyone if they had seen his rabbit (he's been looking daily for 5 years but still not found it!) another women jumped out at me because I was walking on the floor and it was electrocuted! She jumped out of no where and screamed at me to get off the floor! I appreciate she was looking after me, but still, made me jump out my skin. I did decide to resist her offer of walking on chairs and continued to use the electrified floor, I explained I had rubber shoes, but she didn't seem to understand. Probably thought I was nuts!

All genuine stories, there were a couple other odd things that freaked me out on my visit, but I can't remember them now.

It was sad to see, but still bloody scary!
