Ive read that alot of violent mental patients are being admitted into nursing homes because of the lack of space in mental hospitals and psych wards... O.O;

I went to one to get evaluated when I started having panic attacks. I saw this really evil nurse that was a huge bitch. They told me to change my diet, and we left lol. I hate hate hated her. Anyways, that's all. Never been admitted.
Thank god I wasn't admitted to that place, it was so depressing.

They usually don't admit you unless they see you as a danger to yourself or others in the US. They'll also admit you if you have a serious mental illness that needs 24 hour per day evaluation for a while. I don't know anything about other countries.

I never have, but there were a few dark nights in the past when I thought about admitting myself.

i've never been. i like when the doctor asks you if you are a danger to yourself or others. i always think, "no thank you" i dont want to be admitted. its been recommended, but id never do that. i dont see how it would help in the long term.

I've never been admitted any mental hospital. Our neighbor had been admitted because she got so sick that she was already considered a threat to her neighbors. She speaks to no one and she don't want to take a bath, what is scary is that she tends to scream at certain occasions.

Referred but not an inpatient.
hi.
I was referred by my GP to the local psychiatric hospital as an outpatient. I have mixed depression and anxiety. Since then, there's been many ocassions when I feel that I should have been an inpatient as I've been really suicidal the last 6 months. However, admitting me seems to be the last thing they want to do, and I can't understand their reasoning. Perhaps it's due to a lack of bed spaces in the hospital. I am from the UK and mental health services in the North Lincolnshire area seem to be very much below par.

yes........twice
the first time I was only 12 and I was committed because my cat (go ahead and laugh, I loved that lil summab1tch tho) ran away and I was so depressed my family thought I would commit suicide.
the 2nd time I was 17 and had smoked some laced weed (it had PCP in it which I wasn't aware of). Ran outside in my draws and curled up on the sidewalk in broad daylight, I had hallucinations also
I'm thinking about going back a 3rd time due to depression, because I don't really have any other solutions at the moment

its not a laughing comment mate. i know exactly how you feel.
well I could laugh at it now, and I'd probably be lying to myself if I said I wouldn't have slightly smirked if someone else other than I had said it.
But yeah, that sh1t sucked...it was the first time I lost something I loved.
I've always been overally emotional though, (due to me being bipolar extreme highs and lows) I still randomly tear up thinking about my grandmother and she died 7 years ago. I also got kind of teary eyed while watching the end of Micheal Jacksons funeral on tv. lol
