I was scared (paranoia), having a delusion, depressed like you couldnt believe, wanted cut, started punching myself in the face and smacking myself...and i couldnt go to bed because i was afraid, racing thoughts too where happening. i told my mom i desperatly needed to be hospitlized. No what she said?? "I'm going to work tomorrow, dont do this now." ugh...how come she cant understand?? I NEED HELP.

And i have another question..
My medical insurance is up, no more, nada...what do i do if i'm in a crisis, is there anyway that insurance can budge a little bit for me if its needed?? Well, yeah, i'm thinking when my mom comes back i'm going to check myself in..if i check myself in...will i be able to check myself out??

thanks..

If your mother won't respond to your needs, call a hotline, or call a local hospital. Have them send an ambulance for to take you to the hospital.

Checking yourself in doesn't always mean that you can check yourself out. Sometimes there's a minimum stay time. That can be changed by the doctors though if they feel that you are ready to go home. But they can also keep you as long as they deem necessary if they feel that you are a danger to yourself or others. That may not be the case where you are. Those are just my experiences with the hospital. I'm sorry that your folks won't listen to you. I hope things get better. Good luck and keep us posted.

I agree with Dexter on this one. Please call 911 or a hotline and get some help if your mother isnt willing to help you out.
