It can be a healing and safe place to be but I was in one on numerous occasions when psychotic so I did not have the benefit of being actively engaged in my treatment. You should make certain you have an advocate on the outside to assist when need be because they will certainly want to medicate you with or without your consent.
By the way, once in you are on their clock not yours. Don't expect a release when convenient.
