i am the person that was arrested twice last night for the crime of having suicidal thoughts and going to the hospital to have it addressed. the crisis i was in is not over, and this is likely not the last you've seen of me.

i have been off of the drugs now for almost 36 hours and am already experiencing severe side effects, including unwanted random erections and extreme outbursts of violent thoughts and aggressive behaviour, leading me to wonder how much more of this i can take before i pull the plug. this is only going to get worse until the issue is addressed. it is beyond baffling that my very serious concerns were brushed aside by a doctor that clearly had distinctly anti-queer biases.

as i was not allowed to get the facts straight before i was dragged out of the hospital like an animal, i feel the need to get a fax to the hospital to set things straight. after reviewing these facts, if the hospital would like to reconsider the situation and the uniqueness of the emergency room in having the ability to prescribe what i need at this time, i would appreciate a call (you can leave a message) or email to correct the situation.

as it is, dr. ====== should expect a human rights case to be filed against him at the ohrc for discrimination, in short order, and i will be prosecuting the case as aggressively as is possible, as what happened is unconscionable. there will likewise be civil action taken against the police for clearly disproportionately violent behaviour. and, i intend to make a serious complaint against the guard '======', as well, with the intent of him losing his job.

i will easily defeat the specious tickets in court.

this can never happen to anybody else ever again.

what are the facts?

1) the transitional stability centre does not have physicians on hand and cannot prescribe medications. it is of absolutely no use to me at all, as i said. dr. ====== insistence that i go there to refill an rx was deeply ignorant and severely misinformed.

2) while i have an rx for cyproterone, it is at a dosage that is too small to be useful, as a result of an unusual level of tolerance built up from high dosages over many, many years. i need a dosage that is usually reserved for prostate cancer patients.

3) my doctor is on holidays and cannot be reached until mid september.

4) regardless, doctors & nurses are required to follow certain guidelines in filling a rx such as this. my required dosage exceeds the maximum allotment. as such, only an emergency room doctor can identify the situation as an emergency and prescribe the required dosage.

5) every clinic in town is closed.

so, i have now followed the suggestions set out by the doctors and have merely arrived at the same point: i need an er doctor to prescribe this rx. a clinic cannot do so, nor can my family doctor.

i will need to try the met campus this afternoon, and hope i get a second opinion, from there.

the bizarrity of the scenario is that i was right about everything, and the doctors and nurses were wrong about everything. there is still time to correct this, even if the situation is too far gone to avoid the intervention of the ohrc. no amount of reconciliation on your behalf will avoid a human rights battle that i intend to win, and that i intend to reverberate in pushing through institutional changes as to how mental health emergencies are dealt with by the windsor hospital.

what happened to me cannot happen to anybody else, and everybody involved should be deeply ashamed of what they did. you will be held accountable in time.
