Forced Injections?

It was January 2000 when I was sectioned for the 3rd time. I had caught a bladder infection and it felt like I wanted to go to the toilet all the time. This kept me awake and I had not slept properly for 2 weeks. On top of this I was allergic to the anti-psychotic drug Quetieapine, which made me feel like I was on fire and forced me to have cold baths all the time. Therefore I had stopped tacking Quetieapine.
