Staff talked to a patient harassing me

A female patient has been harassing me a lot.

Going into my room.
Coming up to me while I am in my room and trying to enter it.
Making faces at me.
Swearing at me.
She came up behind me and pushed me twice.
She seems to want to show me her vagina (she wears a skirt and tries to spread her legs and then I get up and leave).
Following me around and trying to sit next to me.
She was calling me Jesus.

I keep telling her to leave me alone.
To please respect my boundaries.

She came up to me again, and I went right away to staff, this time not even responding to her again, and three staff went and talked to her.

This isn't the first time staff have gone to speak to her, but this time feels different. They didn't code her, and I am thankful for that.

I just want to do my time here, and be left alone.

I hope she starts leaving me alone.

I am tired of how the patients are treating me here.

It's not up to me how long my stay is.

All I can do is try to follow the rules once I get the hospital policies from the Client & Family Relations Team Manager so I know what rules even are (the staff tell me different things different days).

Hopefully since I may be here for days, weeks, months, or years the patients and the staff learn to just leave me alone.

I am a human being with feelings too. And they keep hurting them.
