Hi Tano -- Last year, I wanted so much to be put in a hospital when I had my breakdown, and my psychiatrist wouldn't do it bec. I was in Florida, and it's absolutely true, there are not suitable facilities. The only one I was near was a warehouse for people with profound mental problems and very violetnt people.
When my brother screamed into my answering machine that I should kill myself, he also screamed that I should just check myself into a psych ward. Moron that he is. And he's worked as a nurses aid in Florida.
So I went to stay in a religious community for a while so I could feel safe and have a structured day. There was also opportunity to work on my issues from a spiritual perspective. It was very helpful.
And the others are right: The hospital is designed to provide you with a safe and comforting and healing environment to help you get well. No wonder you want to go back. Can I come, too? Please?
