About this listen

"...she chomped down on my cheek. I pulled my face away but she only bit down harder. I’d never been in this dilemma before. Biting is against the rules in every martial art I practiced, but the unit had no referee to disqualify her here. It was up to me to adapt. I waited for her to let go so I could pull away. She didn’t. My mind raced, “If I push or pull myself away, it will rip my cheek.”

Join me as I try to dodge flying fists, amorous advances, sticky fingers, airborne objects, and more. See the best and worst from working inside a psychiatric crisis stabilization unit. You'll roar with laughter and cry with compassion. You'll meet real patients who inspire us even at the lowest points of their lives. You'll meet patients who, despite their challenges, aren't too different from yourself, your family, friends, or that creepy guy staring at you from the window. Made you look.

The author takes his reader through their detailed account of real life experience as a technician working at a psychiatric ward.

The author has a unique way of placing the reader in his mindset and thoughts as he takes them through his days of observation.

As the story takes the reader on the thrilling roller coaster ride in the daily life of Jay, which he spent in a dark locked facility, there are sudden sparks of “Dad jokes” to keep the reader smiling.

Jay has a unique way of reminding the readers that we are all in this together and that green scrubs are all that define the technician from the patient.

This is an enjoyable read and the stories are real as they are similar to those that most of caregiver’s have experienced in the field. Any experienced MD, RN, and First Responder will truly related to the stories in this book. Take the time and listen to or read this descriptive journal by the Wordsmith.

I was hooked since the beginning. I listened to it in my way to work and my house and I was literally lol.

I highly recommend this to everyone. Light to read and clean humor that you do not find often.
