yes! please tell people this more.
theres so many misconceptions about hospitals.
these places are not a free time.
honestly? i feel like it shouldnt be treated as a place to go in and out whenever.
hospitals mainly crisis centers (which these are what they mostly are) do not promote recovery. they ONLY get you stabilized and get you
back into community resources like a psychiatrist or therapist or group therapy and so on.
you may leave still feeling bad or anxious or psychotic or whatever your personal case is. they just make sure your going to be ok long enough until you can see your psychiatrist again.
the hospital is a TON of money to put out unless you really need it.
my last hospital stay came out to about $13,000 dollars for 7 or 8 day stay.
