Yeah for the reasons you put in this thread Im not surprised they turned you away either. Sounded like what you needed was more a holiday or rehab type thing than hospital admission.

Last day for me. Funny how they wouldnt let me go out yesterday and Im still not allowed glass or plastic bags in my room but I'll be going home today to a house full of knives, glass and plastic bags.. Oh and hot water, shock horror I will have boiling water from a kettle. Maybe even HOT soup!!

You still gotta deal with real life and cope on your own when you get out, past crisis admissions there is not much they can really help with. Unless you are totally clueless about mental health, then the groups may help, I met some really dopey people in group, they didnt have a clue about the depression or anxiety cycles or anything they "learned". To me all of that stuff is common knowledge when you have a mental illness. I guess not everyone is as clued in on that stuff.

IOP if they offer it might be great for you, who knows. Hope they can do something for you.
