i had a visit there myself, its ok once you get in, albeit i have to repeat what i feel AGAIN for what feels like the one millionth time. in the end it turned out i WASN'T crazy, which i still debate with myself and was referred to someone else who will help me feel like i am part of a group hopefully.

when you go just be truthful about how you feel, and be open, they are there to help, not to try to lock you up or anything, hope it goes well for you!

*hugs* it will get better, and as i view it, it cannot get any worse, but you are not alone *hugs again because who doesn't LOVE hugs :)*

This is a really good idea. Checking out some professional help is not a sign of weakness, it shows that you're thinking hard about doing the right thing by yourself.

Good luck with all of it!

I've been in the hospital and it can be hard, but it's so beneficial.  Take it one day at a time, go to groups, take it all in.   You'll get a lot of good advice and some bad, but it'll be good for you.  Good luck!
