In reply to Whether or not to take a vacation in hospital?, posted by Racer on April 16, 2004, at 12:52:53
like you I absolutely abhor psych hospitals. because it's always an involuntary hold, I feel trapped and have never benefitted except for a cessation of manic symptoms (because of forced medications). so obviously I'm biased. if I was in your situation, I would call a good friend (or in my case probably my sister) and ask if I could stay for a few days/week just to get away. is that something that you can consider?
hope you feel better soon, judy
