I also have been admitted about 3 times. None were of my own free will. The last one I almost didn't make it - I was in ICU for awhile.

I wish I had the treatment Candy had - I only saw the pdocs on Monday. That was it - one day a week, unless there was a major issue.

They had group a couple of times a week, but for the most part, it was "do as you please". You gained different levels for privilges. I stayed in for about a week last time.

Did I get much out of it? Well, other than it being safe for me, no not a whole lot.

I would still go if I could - I believe I need to be there, but I have to work for my family.

I wish you the best - don't wait till it is too late.
