an overzealous nurse sick of trying to keep a mask on a delirious patient.

Nurses worry more about keeping you safe than your crybaby feelings. At least you're still alive to shit-talk the nurse, you ungrateful fuck. God forbid the nurse's other patients needed help while they were stuck dealing with you.

I’m sorry if that came off as ungrateful. I appreciate everything they all did, and they saved my life. The Haldol was a bit hard to handle but I’m grateful I’m alive. So have a nice night.

After 18 years in healthcare I've only come across one person that thought the actions of patients that were totally unaware of their surroundings were directed at them personally.

In my over 20 years in health care I've seen so many patients blame staff for everything. It's tiresome and thankless.

Some people think a hospital is run by the cast of House MD where everybody drops everything to cater to them personally and investigate their homes to determine what's wrong, and run the imaging machines themselves. Too many people act like the slightest inconvenience is the biggest sin and an a personal affront directed against them by the staff.

I've been prescribed codeine at the same time I was taking mirtazapine to manage insomnia.

Did you know that they have a high interaction rating? Because my doctor certainly fucking didn't. Fast forward three days and I genuinely believed I was psychic because I was unable to connect my memories to my knowledge. I knew things but had no idea how I knew them.

The high and mighty, "Staff is never at fault," line is total bullshit. Everyone makes mistakes, sometimes, the patient is right to blame staff.

We don't expect House MD, but we don't expect Nick Riviera either, and sometimes that's what we get.

Never said "never at fault", but thanks for the strawman anecdote. Now fuck off and find someone else to put words in their mouth you faggot.
