So I am at the point in which I know I am about to snap on the fullest. Now I am wondering when I do lose my mind, because the nearest children mental hospital is in the capital and costs a lot, and mental health is not part of my insurance, when I do snap will I bend there? Or send home? Or would I need to stay in the ER? Or even get locked up in the asylum that is in my city that is for over 18, or will I like be send to sleep in my psych's house.. like what happens?

I live in another country, but here a child would not be put on a ward with adults, Probably they would take you to the children's mental hospital.

its my understanding you are 15 or 16 right... here in the USA when a teen ager aged 15 and above have problems where they become a danger to their self or others or have a mental breakdown (in your words snap) they are taken to the emergency room where two psychiatrists talk with them and decide whether they need inpatient services. if so they are admitted to the mental health unit at that hospital. the ages of the local hospital mental health units usually are from 15 on through adulthood of all ages. then while on the mental health unit if longer term facility is needed the treatment providers, and parents get together to discuss the various mental health facilities that deal with that teen agers issues and decide where the teen ager goes next.

to find out what happens in your location of bulgaria you will need to talk with your doctors. the one that just prescribed abilify for you will be able to tell you what happens in your location.

suggestion if things are this bad maybe you might want to be rethinking this trip to Italy with your school\church.

another suggestion your doctor just prescribed you abilify. please consider taking your meds, it may help you to feel better.
Thanks for this!

In theory you are protected by the European Convention on Human Rights - here is an English language guide: http://www.voxscotland.org.uk/webfm_send/190/1

The convention should have been translated into Bulgarian law. You may be able to find a similar document in your country.
Thanks for this!

I don't know what would happen but I don't think you are going to snap. I think you are probably a lot stronger than you think. I had similar thoughts and fears during a couple of extended bad times... I never did snap or break. I don't think you will either. Hang in there.
Thanks for this!
