I have yet to be hospitalized but because of the length of my sister's stay I am deathly afraid of the psy. hospital. Even the normal hospital DH stays walking the halls and passing out in chairs if need be. What really help me was to do a health directive plan. It tell when you need to call your souport team (Pdoc, and therapist), when hospitalization is required, who will make your decisions while you can't and how everyone will know when you can go home. I'm really not that worried now because I know EXACTLY when and if I need hospitalization. If your proactive you should be good if it is needed your stay should not be that long.
