We had group times and such, if that's what you mean, and learned different coping skills and learned from each other's experiences. We got our meds there at scheduled times, which made it easier to take my meds, as now I'm away from there and am on my own dealing with that, i mean the meds are hard for me to figure out but I do do it myself religiously. I hope for the best for you, and can tell you succesfully I did it and it helped tremendously-it was a life saver-so I say GO FOR IT!!!!!!!

Yes this is what it is. The thing I am worried about is right now my severe depression was brought on by the death of my only child in January. I am afraid the other people there won't be able to relate to what I am going through.
Also, it costs 25 dollars a day copayment, that is 125 dollars a week. We are broke right now having to pay around 16,000 dollars for our son's funeral.
If I went inpatient it costs nothing. That doesn't make sense to me. I thought insurance companies were trying to keep people out of the hospital by going outpatient. Money wise there is no incentive to do that.
