My psychologist told me the other day >"anon, you have

bumpity bump, facing a real life decision here folks

the good news is that you have the freedom to leave if you admit yourself voluntarily

as long as you don't start making threats or anything

bad news is that it's a terrible environment that will only harm your mental health

it's boring, nothing to do, food sucks, staff is all condescending, no internet

imagine spending 2 weeks in a doctor's office waiting room

good news is that you may meet some relatable fuckups in there

probably not any girls your age, mostly older people with severe mental illness

>no internet
this one hits me the most

>mostly older people with severe mental illness
don't they have like separate wards for 20-somethings?

I know that robots are a sad species, but wanting to go in therapie only to get a GF, really.....

Terrible idea on many levels.

Don't go to the fucking psych ward. They do nothing.

And don't think about finding some girl from one either.

some places have youth wards for young adults. teenagers basically. they treat you like small children.

personally i avoid the hell out of these places. they're a trap and not the kind with a feminine penis. they'll lock you up and force feed you drugs. go ahead if you're fine with potentially having your personality mutilated in the name of 'health.'

thanks for the warning, I actually thought these places are just /r9k/ in real life and comfy, didn't know they are full "shutter island"-tier

Dropped.

I've been to 2 different psych wards as a teenager. These may be a bit different from adult wards.

They were basically low-security prisons for teenagers. Almost all the kids in there, including me, were in there for (violent) outbursts, or admitting that they thought about suicide, not because they're crazy.

An extremely unethical thing is the force-feeding of drugs, luckily I was 16 and had my parent say I didn't need to take them, but if you didn't fall under those two exceptions, you were FORCED to take multiple mind-altering harmful drugs.

The "diagnosis" consisted of some quack going through a short questionnaire for at most 30 minutes, then deciding what drugs to put you on, usually 2+ mind-altering drugs. There was a 0% chance of them saying you didn't need to take drugs.

There were kids forcibly dragged out of the room and injected with drugs because they didn't want to take them.

Psychiatry is an extremely unethical pseudoscience, this isn't far off from whent hey used to force lobotomies and electro-shock therapy. However I don't think they can force adults (at least non-violent ones) to take drugs.

Other than that, it was mostly sitting in a room watching TV or playing N64 with a bunch of unstable teenagers, sometimes they would have stupid group """therapeutic""" activities/games. The food was basically like school/prison cafeteria food.

You dont want a relationship with a psych ward roastie. I dated a girl who I was in rehab with, went poorly.

Psych ward can be comfy, it seems most people have shit experiences but the one I was in was comfy and they even had wireless internet

>>34935164
They are not like shutter island. You sut around watching tv getting pulled out one at a time for appointments and meds, usually do groups once or twice a day. They take the smokers out to smoke every couple hours if its a low-security place. I thought it was p comfy but I could not wait to get back to work by the time I left.

Your psychologist is tryign to squeeze every bit of money out of you retard, they get bonuses for every patient they send there

>>34935883
>wireless internet
you have my attention

>>34935829
>went poorly
how come?

>>34935895
last question, how much socialization even takes place in there? did you chat with the other patients to any degree or made friends with anybody?

>>34936003
>they get bonuses for every patient they send there

I had internet and decent food but I was at the psych ward for rich people

Yeah, you'll be in a facility where most women are old, with poor sense of hygiene and you'll be drooling all day with the medicine they'll force fed you.

That's a capital idea, faggot

This was in Finland though, here you can also leave the ward for few hours every day so if you don't like the food you can go eat in a restaurant every day, etc.

Go get yourself a mentally unstable cutie gf, OP. What's the worst that can happen?
Probably nothing bad, but go for it anyway. Good luck.

The worst part is that once they label you with certain 'diseases,' your objections will not be taken seriously, your accusations of wrongdoing will be seen as 'delusions,' or 'exaggerations,' especially as a child, you become a second-class citizen, your family members get on edge whenever you show any true emotion, it's horrible, you become less than human.
