exactly, can't produce anything, more heresay. More lies - or maybe it's the little imaginary world in head - the fantasy she lives in.

CCM, Here is one, but I cant remembeif it was Niles or Zen's desk...do you remember?  I'll see if I can fetch the link.





...

I guess it's hard to remember which guy it belonged to, since you were crouched under it with knee pads on.  So, you've decided to specifically target Fornits posters by name?  Never cry foul again, who.  That's a pretty defamatory comment you've made against two people.

Let's talk about you're desk...lot of Bain Capital business strewn around, I guess?

holy cow...that has to be a stock photo. Seriously. I'd really like that link, though. That's pretty crazy.


Is there somebody right now sitting at this desk?


THAT is NOT my step-dad's desk! His desk is very tidy and my step-dad only drinks Diet Coke....that and he would be to self conscious to have comic book curtains...

Wow.. I've done many a restraints in my time and never manage to mess a kid's jaw and wrist. That must have been some wing ding of a good old time.

When you filed the grievance could you take it higher up the ranks if you didn't feel the situation was adequetely resolved?

not that I suspect that is the case..


I believe filing a grievance (as a patient) at PV was a waste of time. I saw many filed in my time in STU. It was up to individual staff on duty to process the complaint. Some may have made it up the ranks, but I saw quite a few go into the garbage can.

You have to be "seen" when you first get there (undo bra, pull out your pockets pull down your pants run your hands down your legs, and take your socks off.)
Being seen is something that happens often, after chores and every time you go off the unit. It does not always include taking your pants totally off, sometimes it was just  running your thumb around your waistband and pulling out your pockets and running your hands down your pant leg.
After you are seen the first time you are required to take a shower and  given STU clothes.

It kind of depended on what staff wanted. But if staff wanted peers to be confrontational they would be. Like if I was telling the truth and no one believed me and I got upset because of that, staff would start saying "you're lying" or "be real" and of course peers would jump in with the same.
Do you think group process is bad?

Did they refer to it as Group Process? Meaning if one person struggles you all struggle as a group.


Yes,  Group Process is a word we heard all the time. Yes we struggled as a group.

Would that build up resentment against the girl?


Yes it would because it just caused trouble with the whole group. It was usually just one or two girls who would have trouble with their responsibilities. It could hold the whole group up for hours.

I have collected a lot of information about totalistic/cult structure that I found was relevant to understanding certain "Why"s of program.  Let me know if you'd like to read more.

PS:  pardon me if this has already been asked/answered, but, did PV have overnight seminars with games/exercises or anything like that?


Well we didn't have games or exercises, but we often had to  stay up half the night for different reasons. The first one that comes to mind is when one girl was not doing her responsibilities correctly and we all had to stay awake until she did. That kind of thing happened frequently and we all hated it.

They said it was to take responsibility for myself and to not manipulate people, but I don't know what they were trying to accomplish by forcing people to admit things that they just did not do.

Is it possible that you could advance faster in the program by being verbally and physically agressive during these therapy sessions?


There was not much room for physical aggression, but the sessions were very "confrontational" and yes the patients who were the most aggressive did advance more quickly.

No, verbal aggression and confrontation are encouraged. That is considered part of working the program.

During group it was both staff and patients. It was verbal but if you did something it could lead to physical. As I said before it was a lot of accusations of "not being real" and lying.

And if someone called time for you and you didn't want to talk?

In the words of my brother, they would get all up in your sh*t and stuff.
