Surviving the Troubled Teen Industry

CW: Suicidal ideation, abuse, SA, addiction

The troubled teen industry harbors untold horrors that lurk behind its façade of rehabilitation. This dark and secretive world encompasses a range of institutions claiming to help troubled youth but often subjecting them to physical, emotional, and psychological abuse. Unregulated facilities, far from the prying eyes of oversight, employ manipulative tactics, solitary confinement, and harsh punishments that scar vulnerable minds. Reports of neglect, exploitation, and even deaths have emerged, casting a chilling light on the industry's disturbing practices. These hidden nightmares serve as a haunting reminder of the urgent need for stringent regulations to protect the well-being and dignity of those who seek help and healing.
