Held against my will
On July 30, 2008 I was on a flight from SFO to JFK.. I had a coughing attack during flight. I was seated by the window and my row was full. I couldnt breath and needed to lay down side ways so I got up and walked to the front and asked to be reseated. I was told to go back to my seat. I said ,"I cant. I cant breath. Please help me and reseat me." When I woke up I was surrounded by 5 police who told me that I didnt do anything wrong but since I ''passed out'' on the plane it was procedure for them to ''make sure I was ok''. I was handcuffed and taken to the Jamaica Queens Psychiatric ward. For the next 7 days I was held against my will, drugged, interrogated, and every time I asked questions such as ,''If I didnt do anything wrong and IM NOT being arrested why wont this door open'' I would be thrown into a room with a thin mattress on the floor. A few minutes later 4 people would come in the room, pin me on the ground. I would scream ." Rape! Rape! Why are you doing this to me ? What did I do ?", then a nurse would come in and give me intramuscular shots of thorazine. My friends and family members came down there every day to see why I was being held and trying to get me out of there. They were given the run around then finally after 7 days I was allowed to leave with no explanation of what the hell just happened and just sent on my way with a variety of antipsychotics and some broncidious medication. For the next 6 days I was in the worst pain I have ever felt in my life. I was walking around drooling all over myself, putting myself in dangerous situations, ect. I have never felt more violated in my life. It seems to me like I should sue someone but I don't know who.
