I want to change my clappers for this picture. Now to figure out exactly how to do that.

Most EDP's give me the serious creeps. EDP = Emotionally disturbed patient in a psychiatric emergency. Almost every time I've done one of these, it seems, I've gotten physically hurt. People think, 'Oh, well, they can't help themselves, they're having issues.'
Really? Then why when our community decided to make some of the attacks prosecutable by the person assaulted, did the assaults drop by about 60 percent?
They did. Now the only people who attack us are TRUly mentally out of touch with reality.
I became an EMT to help people. Being violently attacked is part of the downside. The upside is still way better though.

One time I got costochondritis from being thrown aside by an overdosing patient. But the time one of them stuck me with a used needle was the creepiest of all.

Well that's just damn scary. I'm sorry this happens to you. But I appreciate your education and your help.
