If we are being honest, I just don't trust myself not to try and hurt myself. I am very scared to go and admit myself but sometimes when I am left alone I get so into my thoughts and have tried to hurt myself and it takes everything in me not to end it. I just feel like it is getting harder to stop myself...

Have you looked into a partial hospital program or intensive outpatient? It's just a thought. It's better than going to the ER and waiting for a bed but if you truly feel unsafe, you should probably admit yourself. I hope you're feeling better today.

I am not sure in the United States. But in the U.K. If you admitt yourself to hospital you can leave whenever you wish and you can also refuse treatment. You can't do that if you are *sectioned*.

MeXoXO, this is a bit of an old thread so it probably won't be of use to the OP, but around here, if you're in voluntarily and you want to leave, and they think you're a danger to yourself or others, they can section you to prevent you from leaving. So going in voluntarily doesn't necessarily mean leaving whenever you want.

Hello,
It may be a little late for this reply. I had requested to be admitted to a mental hospital a few years ago for my Psychotic Depressive episode. I felt it was the best option at the time so I would be able to work towards bettering myself in the safety of a hospital. I do not regret admitting myself to the hospital, even though the day before I asked to be admitted, I had a panic attack that about people forcing me to go there. It was odd, but I think it was just my brain telling me that it was a good idea. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
