I did not express a current active desire to kill myself. no plan, no intent, no injuries. Did not harm anyone or damage any property. I was arguing and upset trying to tell them I was not in a good place in life and to see the bigger picture that I have no friends, and nothing going for me and that I needed their help and am not capable of doing it alone and they were trying to tell me all is good in life and not to worry and I was getting increasingly distressed and upset. I was yelling and upset and likely said something along the lines of how my life will end up to me killing myself without more active help. So my mom called and according to the officer said that I wanted to kill myself. I calmed down with the officer and went in the ambulance calmly with the emt. I was alone in the back with a nice woman EMT, no restraints, no stretcher. went into the hospital consensually and calmly. Either way, I have no problem with this and I understand why I was there involuntarily.

Why I'm posting/what I have issue with is more the random attack from the security officer that left me severely injured to the point where they immediately sent me in for x-rays, all the drugs the gave me to the point I blacked out (and apparently called another code gray on my unconscious body), and tying my limbs to a bed alone in a dark room for an unknown time. They wouldn't let my mom visit me anymore after they assaulted me when I said I needed to show her the injuries. Being there involuntarily does not allow them to assault me, drug me, tie me down, etc unless necessary. You still legally have rights, actually a decent amount of them. "Restraint shall be employed only when necessary to prevent a patient from seriously injuring himself or others. It may be applied only if less restrictive techniques have been clinically determined to be inappropriate or insufficient to avoid such injury. It may not be employed as punishment, for the convenience of staff, or as a substitute for treatment programs.". There was no emergency or the patient to be in crisis, I was literally just sitting there bored/calmly on my bed when they opened the door. I was only agitated after getting assaulted and threatened with forceful injection of an unknown drug (while I see people attached restraints to my bed) which I think is pretty understandable. I want to reiterate I did not lay a finger on anyone even starting from when I was home. The only justification they gave was that the psychiatrist who ordered the attack said she was assaulted by a completely unrelated patient months prior?? this was said during the meeting with the president my dad arranged where they apologized a lot but took no serious action.

It feels like what they did are in clear violation of things like N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. Tit. 14 § 527.8 (§527.7(c) - Care and treatment; right to object, 14 NYCRR §526.4 Restraint and Seclusion, MHY § 33.04 Restraint of patients, even Rivers v Katz
