The psych ward is not that bad. It's like a supper boring vacation. You can rest as much as you want, be social or not, you will have group therapy (can be helpful), similar people are there with you. You are only alone if you make it that way. You will visit a psychiatrist which will examine your feelings of despair then get the meds you might need. They will monitor you coping skills with meds, self care, socializing, and boundaries. It's a good break from stress.
