So if you were in this situation would you choose the yellow door safe in your home with some care from your family or the locked door on a ward and most of us know what that's like....
Yellow door for me. Hospitals have never helped me. If anything, they've made matters worse for me.

I've noticed that some thing. Commenters on Internet articles make it sound like it's so easy. Take the meds, and you'll be well. They don't seem to understand that not everyone gets well with meds. Not everyone even improves with meds. And side effects can be significant.
Exactly. Yes, meds can improve things... but the media really over inflates what meds can actually do. It's not as simple as oh take a pill and all of your problems will be solved.
Thanks for this!
