That was a great and true post by OPEN EYES , Mental hospitals are there to get you out has soon has they can mostly about 2 days, it is a damaging experience , they do nothing more than your GP can and you in a very hostile environment . AND if you do have the miss fortune of having to stay in a month you will hit a very big wall when released, it damaged me badly. Now work fore the mentally ill walking wounded, no one want to set you on , you are not reliable like the normal,s, you cant go having days off every time you crash an employer cannot afford mental patients they have schedules to meet and half the work force off sick wont work. YOU have to do like me I worked self employed , so worked when I could and found my own work I developed my own skills has a bricklayer. That way nobody will ask if you have any mental problems you are your own person I looked after my family this way all my working life , in hospital odd times the rest working my butt off
