heey :) i don’t know what country you’re in, but i was admitted to a belgian psych ward. and like. pretty much yes to what that other anon said. i think to me it was difficult at first to really… put effort into letting myself be helped? like, many people i know were in there and it didn’t do anything good for them because they didn’t want it to. if that makes sense. the environment strips you of a lot of coping mechanisms which is scary as fuck but it also makes you much more aware of what exactly is going wrong, or which behavior is destructive etc. its a different experience for everybody tho i will say that. ok. wish you all the best <3

hi!! ty ty so much for this info <3 !!

#what you said about the stripping of coping mechanisms is so helpful bc i hadn't looked at it like that yet but it might be what i need #bc ive been trying not to have a single thought and ive been doing nothing but distract myself bc i know nearly every train of thought will #lead me into a dark spiral #but i know i have to go through it. its just scary!!!!#but ig in a controlled environment it would be safer to do that #n like. maybe i need a place where i can let all the crazies out without having to feel the immense crushing guilt of unloading that #on my loved ones #hm.#thank u so much for this perspective <3 the solidarity im feeling is all warm and fuzzy. appreciate you <3
