I've been a few times, hopefully recently was the last time. You can bring your own clothes, but nothing with strings hanging off of them or anything sharp where you could hurt yourself. If you have a therapist you could tell him/or her your reason for wanting to be admitted and see what they say about it. If you are suicidal then I hope you let someone know or go to the ER and tell them.
