Basicly, this story is black and white, once I made the decision to appeal my results for Bipolar Disorder, my unit was outraged and I begun to face alot of scrutiny. Now 2 article 15's later for FTR's due to newly sleeping medications, a chapter 14-12b has been iniiated. I've posted here...

My bipolar medications were taken from me after my last stay at a mental health inpatient facility, none for drug use. There was a note from the inpatient facility reccomending my meds be regulated, my unit has been making me check in, 0800, 1200, 1700, 2000. To me this has to be violating CSA...
