Hey there,
You have much insight babe........and in control of your treatment...
Whenever I have wondered if I need to go as an inpatient(when I have not been regulated, mind you

)........
I ask myself........do I feel safe?
If no, I go........If I do, I stay......and talk through it.......as you are doing....
Kudos to you babe.......you got your health and responsibility mojo working.....
Take very good care, sweet......and talk and talk.......your hike sounds excellent!
