Yeah, that place was totally jacked up. Who are you? I was also there in 92. My name is Megan Flynn. My parents were equally as ignorant (as your parents seem to have been). However, I let my parents know just how ignorant they really were, and now with the internet, they are able to see for themselves. They do apologize and realize they made a mistake. I was there with Angie Curry (whom I am still in contact with, and she is now in nursing school herself, and hopes to work in psych). Sure, I've "gotten over it". I finished college, I'm a nurse, I have a nice boyfriend whos a doctor who loves me. I do talk to my parents often (my father lives in Europe, but my mother lives closeby). I have lots of friends and a cool job and a beautiful loft condo. I like to travel and do yoga, ect, ect, ect... I also have a social and a professional responsibility to make the public aware of what really happens at PCS, how it is based on nonsense, implemented by idiots, and tends to have really poor outcomes. So keep posting, and letting people know how terrible that place really is. Good luck to you.
