I've had to stay in an adolescent psychiatrict ward for just over three montgs now for si and depression, just thought it would be interesting to see if anyone has had simular experience. It would be nice to hear if someone had and they had a positive outcomr?

I personally have never had to stay in a psych ward for SI, but I think that it really helps people. How are you liking it?

Hello~

I stayed in a Psychiatric Hospital once before, not by my choice, and I remember it as being annoying and tedious. The schedules, the individual sessions, the group sessions, the constantly being supervised- it didn't really bother me, being in the position bothered me.
I'm sure if I actually wanted the help that the experience would've been positive, but I didn't, I just wanted to hurry up and get out of there and leave a trail of chaos behind me. I was pulled out after only 15 days though, so I don't know if you'd really consider me having been in a psych ward.

But, I'm in a talkative... typative?... mood, so I figured I add my two sense c:

I've been admitted quite a few times. Only one time sectioned for self harm specifically (no suicidal thoughts or plans). It was a horrible time and I had long term psychological damage from the experience. Made my cutting quite a bit worse after release too. If I could erase that period I would.

Yes I have been committed to a psych ward for self injury multiple times. Both were very beneficial.
