a very private question but I have to ask…
when you got into hospital (psy) was it because they forced you to go? or you have decided to go on your own?
and when you go by yourself.
what needs to happen for you to decide to go there?

I haven’t been in hospital
during these 4 years of sz.
I suffered alone in my house.
I don’t intend to go soon.
Except if others make me go.

3 year is along time. I was kept in a month. But then I lived in a home for people with mental illness for 3 years. After that I lived in supportive housing. Now I live independently

You can set up your own hospital at home.
Just wake up earlier,take meds,and listen music.

with all your mighty strength as America, this is lame…sorry, but in Israel it’s better, they give like “a day word” without sleeping, but sz usually get whatever they need…
and no one wants a night word, that is hell.

Trigger Warning

@ola I admitted myself. But even after a suicide attempt, they turned me away. I had to get my sister to come with me the second time, and they finally let me in.

Having a family member or friend there to help you navigate the process, is a good thing anyway

The very best of luck, whatever you decide

private for-profit hospitals will try to hospitalize you whether you need it or not if they can get money out of your insurance company
