padded walls
Soft psychiatric barriers
Padded walls are walls lined with soft material to prevent injury, found in psychiatric facilities and sometimes detention cells.
The phrase evokes institutional confinement for mental instability: Keep talking like that and they'll put you in a room with padded walls.
Someone who belongs in a padded room is considered dangerously unhinged.
