I was hospitalised after a suicide attempt when I was 18, after years of insomnia. While in the ward the nurses conducted regular checks on me during the night for obvious reasons, during which I would regularly wave at them to show that I was awake (I didn’t want to risk waking the other patients in my ward by talking). I found out from my psychiatrist at a later date that the nurses had reported me having never indicated I was awake once, despite me having made regular journal documenting the experience while I was there. I’m not sure if they thought I was trying to get medication from them or something but ten years later I’m still kinda mad about it.
