Two years later, (I was mandatorily retired on April 2001 by Galician Educational Authorities) on 26/06/2002, I happened to fall profoundly asleep at a bar. My primary physician, Dr. Raimundo López Vázquez, had signed for me a prescription of Zaleplon (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zaleplon?wprov=sfti1) , I had spended the afternoon in a bar, the Apollo, had a few beers and finally took a couple of Zaloplon tabs. Fell in a sort of coma and the guys at the bar called the ambulances. I awoke once more in the hospital, in a huge large room. Strangely enough,  I remember a few computer screens and also that, when I woke up, the girl who cleaned the room was someone that had been also in the bar. I was lying on a stretcher, fully dressed, but with no shoes. Some time after a doctor came, told me I might have intended to commit suicide, and sent me to relate my memories of the day to two medicine students. When I was, he ordered a guard to take hold on me. One of the girls was amazed and whispered  “Son of a bitch!” The doctor told the guard not to hurt me, buc I did punch his nose.

The report says they call a Dr. Méndez (I can’t find any psychiatrist with that surname in Santiago de Compostela) and Dr. Vidal Millares (a woman, it seems, Maria Vidal Villares; also difficult to find anything about her online. Anyway, I don’t remember having talked to any woman: https://xxicoruna.sergas.gal/Paxinas/web.aspx?tipo=paxtxt&idLista=4&idContido=577&migtab=561%3B577&idTax=163&idioma=es&vota=1).
