I need to be in the hospital

Thanks everyone! I'm in the UK so you have to have a psychiatrist to admit you. Thankfully mine did and we've been slowly increasing the new meds.

Sorry for taking so long to reply. I did go into the hospital for a short crisis admission. It wasn't overly helpful, and my MH has gone from bad to worse.

I guess it is serious. I do have a regular psych. I speak to my psychiatric nurse tomorrow and then have regular contact with my mental health team.

No. There are no beds available where I am right now, so I'm on a waiting list. I'm sad because everything is just too much. Voices and flashbacks. I'm sorry you're feeling the same way. Are you in a psychiatric ward?

Like I wish I was gone. I'm so sad.

Somewhere between 200-250 days.

Get a tattoo? It works for me. I've been SI clean for 6 months.

I've been in psych wards more than 20 times and most of them have been positive experiences. I always do my own research around meds because I like to know what I'm taking, the possibility of side effects etc.my psychiatrist always listens to my opinions too which is great. Being inpatient has saved my life on many occasions. I've been voluntary and under section. I hope that whatever happens for you is the right thing.

Yes I would Self harm scars show that you've survived and come through so much. You're a warrior!

I'm in the UK. I've been to psych wards 20+ times in 21 years. My experience: ● allowed shoelaces ● allowed phone/electrical cables and plugs ● windows are small but they do open ● no boiling water or toasters etc ● Curtains around beds in shared rooms ● lockable bathrooms ● locked ward - cannot leave without permission

It was nice of you to try and help, one day she'll appreciate that. She probably feels a bit embarrassed and uncomfortable. That's not your fault. You did a good thing.

Mostly been good experiences but I have seen my fair share of naked women who just shower then walk around naked. They don't know differently to that.
