Trigger warning mention of suicide attempt and pictures of intubation. I was under the care of Dr. Heidi Elizabeth king/Dr. Andrew Greene From September 2017 to January 2018. While I was under their care they failed to properly interview me before during and after my manic episode if they had interviewed me properly during that manic episode which lasted from October 8, 2017 to October 22, 2017. They hospitalized me twice for the same episode. I was discharged after a night at the hospital by doctor bismal I was lucid at the point where he interviewed me but I was still manic. He sent me home with a prescription for an anti-psychotic and during my time getting the prescription filled I saw a woman at the pharmacy counter and I thought she was an actress. Later that week I went to my first of two appointments with Dr. Greene Who failed to pick up on my Manic tendencies and thought I was only hypo manic and did not ask me the right questions. I then went home manic and waited for my next appointment the next day to which I came to him Dr. Greene and said that people our talking about my mother at the bus stop to which she hospitalized me for four days and I was discharged by Dr. Carmichael who only asked me one question which was are you religious to which I replied I am an atheist and he let me go home while manic. I later that week went to the ER after trying to hang myself and told them that there are people in my phone to which Dr. Carmichael came back to the observation room in the ER and said he would call Dr. Greene still manic Dr. Green came and did not ask me the correct questions. I was then diagnosed with bipolar disorder and not told which type or to explain my episode at all they started me on antipsychotics and a mood stabilizer and a couple months later they discontinued the antipsychotics and I became psychotic five months later to which I was brought to the General campus after 26 days of being in the hospital I was discharged and given a outpatient psychiatrist by the name of Dr mark Kaluzienski. I was put under a trust passing morning while psychotic and made to sign the document while psychotic this meant I had to check in with security every time I went to the hospital the security sometimes miss treated me and I told Dr. Mark Kaluzienski that I would kill myself because of how the security treated me and on January 27, 2020 I jumped off a 10 story balcony after having a bad encounter with the security over the phone. This could have all been prevented if I was interviewed correctly at the Civic campus and if I was discharged in an appropriate manner but I was not and my antipsychotics were discontinued prematurely by Dr. Heidi Elizabeth king and it is because of her and several other doctors that did not listen to my concerns about the security or discharged me prematurely without asking the correct questions that I try to kill myself on January 27 in a severe and serious way. I sustained multi system blunt force trauma which included but not only spinal cord injury, Trumatic brain injury, strokes, cardiac arrest for 10 to 12 minutes, respiratory failure, fractured heel bones elbows and pelvis, Hypovolaemic shock which required massive transfusion protocol. These doctors have failed me and almost cost me my life if they have had interviewed me properly at the Civic campus they would have understood that I had a budding primary psychotic illness and not a mood disorder. Their lack of interviewing lead to a delayed diagnosis and inappropriate treatment
