Steroids and their side effects

I’d be interested to know the experiences of other people because since I’ve been in hospital I’ve been on a high dose and the effect is basically I have had very little sleep.

I mean like none or one or two hours

I also been troubled for the first time in my life by thoughts about suicide

Some other medication I’m on can have suicide as a side effect…..

And do you get help … Surprisingly I have not got any help. ISO surprisingly because a lot of people are put on steroids inhydrases when suffering from things like rheumatoid arthritis flare-ups….

Knowledge about the effect must exist but why don’t the doctors or nurses in the hospital know ?

Trouble sleeping while the hospital is not unusual which have sleep to this diminished degree is torture.

All sorts of insomnia seem to be ignored or even laughed at. In my view it could cause trauma if you’re in the hospital for more than two or three days and you’re being given drugs with these side effects.

In addition it can cause type 2 diabetes osteoporisis… How many other problems ?

Are we afraid of being labeled mental ill if we complain?

I welcome comments and criticism
