Inpatient was the best thing that could have happened to me last fall when I was in the middle of a suicidal depression. No one wants to go, and I was scared s***less of the hospital myself so I know how reluctant people can be. But when you're more scared of what's going on in your life than what might happen in the hospital, it's time to go in. Let yourself be taken care of, attend groups and art/music therapy, rest, and eat well.
