All you have to do is call the hospital and ask to talk to the nurse at the ward yoru friend is in.
They will tell you hospital policy and whether or not you can talk to your friend , and if not for awhile, then why not.

i think maybe because the mental institutes are established to make the brains of the mental more insane. the public outlook is blinded by articles, newspapers media and law. For most almost 99 percent of these patients aren't a threat. There threat reaches a peak almost always when being mistreated or medication has been limited to none. so why do you see public homes in society for the special? and then institutions for the same thing? money is the main cause. the ones in the community are treated the same but in a less manner. while the ones behind walls are like lab rats to be blunt. they test medications and isolation's and certain forms of discipline to see the reactions from these methods. that's why they cant go outside, so the world wont see the tragedy they re placed upon these wordless souls. who better to use? they cant talk and even if they did who's gonna believe them? there crazy.



they can and some hospitals even allow some patients out for a few hours under the watchful eye of family members. i was in one of those for awhile years ago. i was also in one that had no locked doors but at night they locked the patients in their rooms. i have been in and out of them for years and i have yet to be in one where they were totally cut off from the rest of the world.

been there.



I say it depends on the Mental Hospital. My sister experienced a hospital called Shepherd Pratt. During her stay, she was not allowed to have a cellphone or computer, etc. But there was a telephone in there, she was allowed to call home sometimes and my family got to visit her.



There a danger to others and to themselves which is why you can't have contact with them.



I think sometimes they can have visits from their family member ... or friends . But I guess that when you are '' super Mental '' , they want to make you more crazy buy not letting see the exterior world !



They do they are called politicians!
