i remember this time at the springfield program (circa 1985)when this black kid, his initials were G.W., got up from his seat on front row and ran full speed right into the cinder block wall behind the 4th phase side. i think he had jus' been brought back from leavin'. It was pro'ly jus' about the most violent thing i' ever seen. That kid jus' exploded out of his seat and flew over 2 rows of 4th phasers and into the wall. Head first. i mean he wasn't jus' lookin' for attention, he was really tryin' to hurt himself. i remember the blood streamin' out of his nose and down onto his shirt. He had always been a passive kid up to that point. Str8 pushed him over the edge. He ended up bein' restrained on the floor between the 4th phase side and the rest of group. He pro'ly should'a' been taken to a hospital to find out if he had suffered a concussion or broken nose but i don't think he got any real medical attention. Fuck.(shakin' my head)
Fuck Str8. Fuck all authority. Peace.

I think his name was Greg.
B., what Straight were you in?

His name wasn't Greg

Wow! I used to bang my head on the concrete floor. I remember them getting a pillow but it didnt help much. the headbanging, It would make me get dizzy. I wouldnt feel as much pain from the knees that was being pressed into my legs. people sitting on my arms. Banging my head took away the pain in my body.

I can remember realizing that something is way wrong with the picture here. People don't act like that when they are actually being helped, or when the people around them are truly offering help to them. Guilt and guilt and more guilt. A prayer for him and so many others.

No no, sometimes when people act like that they are projecting their own fears onto other people. They really need to take a look at themselves and work on themselves if they want to be nurtured instead of being treated like a fry guy.

Exactly -- over time we began to realize that there was a reason behind this seemingly irrational behavior.
So, now we make a point of hitting misbehavors over the head before putting them on the floor, thus saving them the trouble. ::bangin::

i know what you mean Ex5k. While i was doin' my time in that institutional mind-rape prison i was pro'ly restrained close to... fuck, i don' even know how many times, maybe 'round 50-75 times. The longer i was in there the crazier i got. Eventually when i would get restrained i started bangin' my head off of the hard tile floor too. it didn't even hurt, even though i was slammin' my head as hard as i could. It was jus' sheer frustration comin' out. They were in control of virtually every aspect of my life. That place made me sick.

i know what you mean wet noodle. It sucks to be so oppressed, and it feels so righteous to fight back. In a world of repressed emotions it is quite liberating to finally express them physically. At first i did kinda get off on the emotional release that physical resistance gave me but eventually the novelty wore off and as time passed and i became more and more desperate and my "disease progressed" i no longer got off on it. i was literally bein' driven to madness.
Fuck Str8. Fuck all authority. God is in you.

I was there. Gi*&$ W*it# is someone I will never forget as long as I live.

Wow!! Who are you ?? Send me a p.m. :skull:

oops, fuck, that anon above was me

Hey Pirate and Withdraw,
I was there for that... That was in 1986. Yes and you are right... His name wasn't Greg... His name rhymed with miles and ice... HAHAHA
I think all of us in there wanted to run head first into a wall at least one time or another...
Thanks for the PM Withdraw... Check your PM's, I sent one back your way...
Aloha!

yeah!!!!!!!

GW was my first oldcomer when he was on 4rth. I had no idea about this wall thing until now. He was a nice guy and I wonder where he is now. I remember he had a ferret that would fuck stuffed animals while we ate dinner.
'sup wet noodle!

Hey guys,
THere are quite a few of you from my time in this thread. Iwas in springfield 85/86. There was another guy who dove into the wall then Pete C. He was so sad to see he was a misbehavor who really needed a different kind of help. he was always getting restrained he was on 1st phase forever. I was only in for 11 months before I ditched, (7.5 months on 1st phase) and I think he was on 1st the almost the entire time i was there.
-
i remember him too. He was always rockin' back 'n' forth in his chair. He was a cool kid though.
-
yea, he was always nice (well as nice as you can get in straight) to me. and I was always getting ripped a new ass! I had only drank 3 beers b4 getting dumped in that shithole. so you can imagine how many times iwas confronted to "get honest"
-
i have no doubt that it sucked. i was there.
-
I got there toward the end of '86, so I must have missed the dude who headbutted the wall. I would not have forgotten that.
I remember a 'carpet room' rap (sometime in '87) where this dude turned around and clocked this other guy right below the eye. He must have hit a vessel because the recipient was bleeding quite a bit. I think the 'punchee' was attempting to get the 'puncher' to sit up striaght. Not to say that he deserved it, but he was a little sissy messing with a rather disgruntled "patient" at the time.

Good deal (I read your post). Way to dot that 5th phaser's eye. He must have felt empowered by the staffer's remark enough to say what he did.

I know his parents still live in MD. He was withdrawn off of 4th phase after being started over numerous times. I was on 1st phase when he did it, just after lunch. Brandon McNamara and someone else were on the rap stools. I think it was Paula Profett. As far as I know an ambulance was never called and he didn't exactly get up after bashing his head into the wall.
I think he went to some other mental health place to recover from the damage str8 caused him. I liked GW; but like so many other kids in str8 he didn't have a problem with drugs - as if anyone there actually did.

Well, I just re-red this thread. Sad. I found out sometime after I wrote the original post here, that Giles Weiss killed himself several years after $tr8.
I couldn't quite write about it at the time but I was the one who held him in my lap after he bounced off the wall, all half conscious and with his blood flowin everywhere. Poor kid. I'd been sitting on front row too, when he jumped up and flew into the wall.
Rest in peace, Brother.

This is video of Giles's band Exmortis. He's the vocalist.

That was after my time,I was in St.Pete(Jurassic Period!!).Day 400 of Straight.D.H.,cousin of a 4th Phaser recently started over(highest phase at that time),finished his intake.His oldcomer,soon to be my oldcomer as well,screwed up by letting him know that being judged insane could get him an exit ticket.D.H.,started his crazy act which included losing all control of his sphincter.Unfortunately,I had to share a house with this fine specimen.This was my most unforgettable night in 17 months of brainwashing.Back in the 70s,they piled newcomers in backseats with oldcomers on each door.They put DH on my lap and he crapped right there on the way to the oldcomer's house,sitting on my leg.His antics continued all night.He got taken out the next morning.
