Someone's friend flipped a Jeep Wrangler twice during a blackout, got pinned under the steering wheel, and spent 13 days locked in a psychiatric ward on antipsychotic medication. The account describes what the ward felt like and the struggle to readjust after being institutionalized.
The first time I entered rehab, I entered because I was driving and I kind of had a blackout. I had a Jeep Wrangler. I flipped it twice. My dog got thrown out of the car. I got pinned under the steering wheel. I got locked up at Austin Hospital for 13 days in the psychiatric ward, which was a very scary time and a scary place. And once you're kind of institutionalised like that and you're fed more antipsychotic drugs and that kind of thing, it can be really hard to come out of.
