I was admitted to a psychiatric ward in my 20s says TikTokker - it’s lonely and terrifying


Kat Beck, 26, from Nottingham, has courageously spoken out about her experience of being admitted to a psychiatric ward and has revealed what was most shocking to her

Some of her videos have received over 3.1 million likes, as she honestly discusses the mental health system, her struggles with "unresolved trauma", and her symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). She added: "Unresolved trauma that I’d held inside for years and not spoken to anyone about, alongside dealing with the symptoms of BPD (Borderline Personality Order) during a lockdown where I was living alone, all played a part in my admission. Addressing these claims, Kat said: "People have this idea that you should be lying in bed depressed every single day, not posting on TikTok, but the reality is it’s not like that, especially with my diagnosis."
