[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 449937, member: 1514"] I want to add to the wanting to be in the psychiatric hospital thing. I have only been to one so called psychiatric hospital place as an adult and it was the pits...but that isnt the point. When I was a teen, I got put in this place in my home town that was wonderful! Back then there was no set time limits like they have today so I was in for quite awhile. I have no idea what my diagnosis was for admittance either. I have tried to find out and cant. I would go to my psychiatrist and tell him I felt like being admitted and off I would go. I also earned my green band within 3 days which meant I could leave the premises as long as I was back by bedtime...9pm! I kept my car in the parking lot. We were allowed to smoke, we had pt and Occupational Therapist (OT). I made wonderful clay projects - one of which I still have today. We made little leather things like belts, cigarette holders, etc. I absolutely loved the place. I think I admitted myself to that place about 4 times and stayed an average of at least 45 days at a time. I could leave and go to parties on the weekends...sometimes I even got overnight passes! Never was I drug tested...lol. I just went in to get away from home. Maybe my psychiatrist left instructions I could go in to get away from my crazy mother. He didnt like her. [/QUOTE]
