I'm so sorry you feel so awful. I can hear your anger, pain and frustration.
Being locked up is never the answer. If that's how you feel about a treatment facility then it is not the answer.
But, there are other alternatives.
Starting with one step down from a hospital—there is such a thinh called “day hospital” or “partial day hospital”. You just go there for the day and go home in the evening. Many mental health facilities have them in the states. They have activities and group therapy, private therapy...
Or, do you could just see a therapist once or twice a week?
Do you have a T?
Meds might help too. Are you on meds? Are they working? Maybe different meds might in order?
ALSO--Moving is one of the worst stressors there is! It is so difficult--every aspect of it. Packing, the mess, all the thousand details, the actual move, the unpacking, the settling in, the new places, learning your way around, the new people... It's enough to make even the healthiest people crazy!!!
Hang in there!
