[PC][1980'/90's?]Text based with graphics adventure game from the 90's set in an insane asylum. tipofmyjoystick

I remember playing through this game all the way, but I don't remember more than a few details.

The game was text based with full color graphics. You could not see the protagonist, just a static screen of the room you were in.

I think I found it on an abaondonware site in the early 2000's

One of the puzzles involved you taking an abnormally large pill, and in order to do so you had to find water, plug in a mini-refrigerator underneath a desk, chill the water, and then take the pill with the water. Taking the pill by itself resulted in death and game over.

I also remember a puzzle based on an octopus blocking a hallway.

One puzzle had you investigating a room belonging to a patient with drawing on the walls, and something to do with a mattress.

One was having to distract a guard outside of another patients room.

I believe the game was set in an insane asylum, but the name I remember is not working for my searches, Sanitarium, Sanitorium, Asylum, all names I associate with it, but do not seem to be correct when I search for it.

Any search I get comes up with a game that I am pretty sure is not it(game found is point and click Diablo styled)

I clearly remember text based as it had commands, take, give, put, use, etc...I think there were some light point and click elements like choosing commands, but this was over ten years ago that I played and memory is hazy.
