As the title states I don't know where to turn. Mental hospitals are very triggering for me. They do more harm than good. No one seems to get that. My self harm has escalated to something that could potentially be dangerous. I don't know what to do. I dont really know how to explain what I am feeling right now.

You are not alone. I can assure you that at least one person here on PC has gone through what you are feeling right now.
I agree with you on mental hospitals. They are horrifying. They categorize you and put you in boxes. They can certainly do more damage than good.
Give it time. Talk to us.

Have you ever tried to hold sand? Just grab a handful. Nothing you do can prevent it from spilling out if your hand. Yet by instinct you hold in tighter as it falls. That's how I feel right now. I struggle to hold on to what I have yet it still continues to pour out of my hand. I feel so overwhelmed right now. I don't really know how to put it into words. I don't know why I'm so F'd up.

Sometimes there just aren't the words, I understand.

I don't know -- maybe stop trying to fix or figure things out, for today.
