<blockquote><p>Please contact me. I’m locked up and being given harmful “medications” in a town called Comox in British Columbia. I can no longer access my main (gmail) account on the computer for use by patients so I googled myself and found you. I can be phoned at 250-339-1490 but e-mail is probably better. The hospital is called St. Joseph’s General Hospital and I’m in the inpatient psychiatric ward. I’ve been here since July 5 or 6 and was in “seclusion” 12 days; don’t know quite how or when I’ll get out but have a paradoxical reaction to a drug my psychiatrist, though a good man, can’t understand he needs to stop giving me every day &#8211; it makes me quite ill. I thank you for having found me and very much wish you to find me again.</p>
<p>Yours in big trouble and much fear,</p>
<p>Irit Shimrat</p></blockquote>
<p>Can anyone help her?  I don&#8217;t know anything about the Canadian system.</p>
