Creed of Heresy Wrote:You know the more I think about this, the more I consider checking myself into a psychiatric ward.
You can go ahead and look at some of the wards to see if you need to, but just know that most of them are not meant to help you with long term treatment. They are really meant to stabalize you mentally if you are in a really bad place, and most of the patients are only there for 3-14 days or so. So, unless you really feel you are a danger to yourself or others, there isn't much help that you could get in a psychiatric ward that you couldn't get outside of it. If you aren't happy with your current method of treatment or doctor, the wards will help you get into what they consider a reliable long term treatmet, but that's not something you couldn't eventually do on your own.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
