I'm back. I was in cook county (Chicago) jail from December 10th until today/last night. I picked up an aggravated battery charge after I went to the hospital and got placed on a psych hold. What happened was that I was hearing voices and got up from my hospital bed to check if someone was there and they all grabbed me and strapped me down and injected me. I think I maybe went to sleep and woke up and got moved to a room and was unstrapped. I got up again and tried to leave the hospital while a female guard was grabbing me from behind. I kept going then a male nurse grabbed me from the front and I headbutted him and broke his nose. The cops were already there because it was a state hospital so they put me in handcuffs and fingerprinted me. Then I went to a psych hospital for like 2 weeks and then when I got out they arrested me and took me to the station, a local lockup and then to cook county jail in a paddy wagon with like 12 other people. At bond court that day I told them I had $1800 dollars in my name so they set my bond at $1k. My debit card got declined cus I had enough for the bond but not enough for the taxes.

The dorms were a bunch of flat concrete bed spaces where you'd put a mattress and your blanket, sheets, and towel. They moved me on average like once a week. I kept breaking keyboards and getting into it with the officers (not seriously) but at one point I was in a holding cell at the medical clinic and spit on a guards arm so I got charged with assault with bodily fluids {another charge I've got to go to court for}). I got into like 2 nothing-fights which one gave me what I think is a hairline fracture in my right arm. I'm still nursing it. On the 19th of January the judge lowered my bond to $900 with electronic monitoring (ankle bracelet that tracks you and keeps you on house arrest. I made enough money from social security (disability welfare) to bond myself out last Monday. I got into with an officer before this happened and got sprayed from behind with pepper spray. Then when I was in the hole (for that) I got into a fight with my cellmate (he flooded
