Inpatient care

Ladybug5

Does anyone have experience in being in an inpatient or psychiatric ward etc…

Especially before I was medicated, and still sometimes, I would feel like I need to be in a ward because everything is too overwhelming and I guess it’s feeling like I don’t want to br in control anymore because I can’t do it. As well as depressive thoughts etc… I don’t know how to explain really because of course I dont want to have to be in hospital but I need someone to take me out of my life ? 
but I know that these places aren’t actually beneficial to people always? 

i feel out of options

  • I used to feel like I needed someone to “look after me”. But no one could. Thoughts of being in hospital seemed like a suitable option. A few suicide attempts put me there but only for a night. I am now thankful that this is all it was. The occasions were cries for help. Take away the emotional distress. Now I make my “safe place”, my home and I am thankful for this. I am now of the opinion that except for a few, we are the best people to help ourselves. Surround yourself with what brings you comfort and happiness. For me these are nice smells, pretty things, music, my bed, nice food x
