I have been in and out of the hospital for years. Some hospitals were good and some were not so good. The good one is the one that if I end up having to go back I will go back to. They have groups during the day and most days I see my pdoc. Ours is a locked unit which means even the outside is locked and you are allowed to go outside to smoke or just go outside for awhile every couple of hours. Expect lots of down time. I spent my time either asleep (which was discouraged),reading or working those word find books. I spent most of my time in my room as I'm uncomfortable around people I'm not familiar with but was forced outside my room several times a day. I would then go sit on a couch with my word find book and do my thing. Smoke breaks broke up the day and were looked forward to. I don't think I was totally ready to leave when I did but it was very important for me to leave when I did. If you would like more on that PM me and I will comment more on that.
