it all depends on your age OP.
if you're going to a place that serves relatively younger people (and i mean young can even be up to the age of 25) you're going to get desserts and shit. the meals are supposed to be balanced and healthy and your parents can probably bring you food that you like anyway during visiting hours.

feel better; i had to go through one of these too and the food was the least worries.

That blows, in high school we could either eat there and the food was bizarre, but I've still left a strange place in my heart for those high school pizzas, or just leave and go eat lunch outside the place. Usually I left, smoked a jbar got some chips and played video games for the hour or 45 minutes then went back.

Stuyvesant in NYC was pretty cool before the place moved into shitzone by the old twin towers. There's shit in that neighborhood, literally.

they will just keep you longer and inject you with more drugs.

no matter what, do not sign anything.
do not admit anything.
just keep repeating "i wouldn't ever hurt myself or others"

DO NOT ADMIT TO ANYTHING.

I admitted myself once during a bipolar episode. I found the food agreeable. The meds they put me on increased my appetite. Also while manic I was eating a shit load of food. They kept giving me more food when I asked for it. Kind of like airplane food though they had legit burgers in the place I stayed. Tons of snacks around too. They let my friends bring in carry out from my favorite places. It was alright.

I hated it. The hospital brings you food which has to be checked, they constantly monitor you. During visits they are allowed to bring food in from the outside but it has to be checked. They have to watch you brush your teeth, they check in on you every 15 minutes while you sleep.

I got worse off inside a psyc ward than I was on the outside. Took me 10 days of faking I was better till they let me out.

That's a lethal injection chamber in ops pic.

I found hospital eating to be a pain in the ass.

- lady comes in to give you the menu, returns to take your order, returns to deliver food, returns to pick up the dishes. That's 12 interruptions per day just for meals
-3 other docs making rounds
-nurse taking BP 4x a day
-3 visits from the nurse to give meds -assistant bringing me a plastic tub + toiletries
-minister stopped in once a day to pray.

I just wanted to sleep.

Because I had high blood pressure I was on a sodium restricted diet. They don't cook with spices, especially not salt. That made the food bland. On the menu you could pick one item from each category (entree, vege side, a fruit, dessert, a bread). For a few meals an item was missing and they put in a little saying "you have exceeded your sodium allowance so item xyz was omitted". They don't bother substituting something else, you just get less. One meal they left out my damn entree. Wouldn't have been so bad but because of nonstop interruptions I didn't sleep for 4 days. Meal time was the only diversion I got... That and wondering if I was going to croak.

It was actually better than normal bedside hospital food at the one I was in. They would come by with menus at the beginning of everyday and you would chech what you wanted for each meal the next day. I just got chicken strips and some fruit for lunch and dinner, best to stick with simple things, less chance for them to fuck it up if all they have to do is stick it in a fryer.

Breakfast was the best though, I would get eggs, sausage, and biscuits and gravy. So fucking good for psychward food, it was on like IHOP-tier in my book.

Actually breakfast was the only reason I don't say it totally sucked.

Oh also, the food will make it impossible for you to shit.

And a note about the food... I thought it was unique. It was simpler than airplane food but similar quality. Better than jail chow. Nothing like school food.. Its more "grown up" selections like piece of meat with a sauce. No pizza or burgers or any of that shit.

I went to a private one 3 times in Austin and the food wasn't half bad. Usually something like burgers on Friday (actually delicious), salisbury steak, chicken, barbeque, etc...just basic foods. And you always started off on a "watch list" to where you couldn't leave the unit for anything. Be that gym, outdoor time, or going to the cafeteria for your own food. So they would take your order for you and send somebody to pick it up for you and then you eat with the other patients. And once you get off the watch list you can use the vending machines for snacks and soda and go and pick out all your own food which is nice. The only annoying thing is you only get plastic sparks to use.

I've also been to one state run hospital and that place was batshit crazy but way Kore relaxed and fun with the group of people I was with. We actually had TV, our own personal radios, and lots of conversation time and the staff didn't give a fuck what we did unless somebody started fighting.

The only downside was the food. It was shit...but I was there around the holidays so we had one good day of "Christmas food".

It's hospital food but as far as I could tell it seemed slightly better than the stuff I got served when I was in a normal hospital. A lot of patients have issues with appetite so they weren't all stringent about salt and condiments and such. You don't get to eat alone though, in my experience. Most of the places I got 72 hours in also had little kitchenettes where the staff would prepare snacks throughout the day and there was usually fresh fruit and things like cookies and crackers served throughout the day. If you don't eat then you have to chug an Ensure, which isn't all that bad. Also, some of them had milk in bags. Like Canada. It always made me uncomfortable because some of the motherfuckers shouldn't have been allowed straws.

If you enroll in one of those out-patient intensive therapy / medication monitoring programs where you get dropped off every morning you usually get to eat in the cafeteria where the staff eat, and it tends to be pretty decent since they're also feeding the doctors. They've even had veal a few times.

Honestly, the food should be the least of your worries. Have fun sharing a bathroom with no locks with a complete stranger who may or may not have issues with psychosis. Last time I was there I got to share a room with a middle-aged terminally ill and blind gay guy who kept pissing next to the toilet and they'd just transferred in a mute brain-deformed woman who will never leave psychiatric care from a University hospital where she was being studied. She had hair down to her waist, no knees (like that guy on King of the Hill) and she would waddle into people's rooms at night to watch them sleep. Then if you woke up she'd freak out, fall over sideways, and scream like a banshee.

Not that guy, but they don't always.
Once I was in with the "general crazies" who were funny as fuck (unintentionally).
The other was more "my" scene- people with drug problems. They were a bunch of spoiled assholes.
I was involuntarily committed both times.

For the first two or three days you'll get to pick greasy food for dinner/lunch but breakfast will be surprisingly good pancakes/french toast/biscuits and gravy. When you're good enough to go to the cafeteria there's a salad bar, more greasy food, and a special of the day. If you're in there for harming yourself or thinking of harming yourself you're not allowed to have hot drinks (tea/coffee) but that might just be for the adolescents.

One was big and full of druggies. Had a few choices, you could only have one bread, one meat, 2 veggies. Portions were tiny. You couldn't get extra unless you got doctor's orders. Food blew anyway.
3rd was a big uni hospital. Swanky. Had a swimming pool. Food was great, could have as much as you want, had soda, had cake and pie and cookies. Had the best fucking fried chicken ever.

They usually make an honest effort to improve your health there, pharmaceutical and physically, and food you want to eat is important. You have to remember many people are there for eating issues too.

If they try to give you/change your antidepressants search them online before taking them.

There are antidepressants like Effexor that can take you from 'I kind of want to kill myself' to 'I want to stab my entire family to death and shit on their corpses and kill myself via decapitation'. Those tend to cause perminant brain damage and wicked long withdrawal periods too (like a year and a half of withdrawal). Be careful.

Good luck and be safe, OP. And enjoy your cafeteria food.

The trick to getting out fast is to have good insurance and sign the paperwork switching you from an involuntary to a voluntary hospitalization ASAP (the hospital will make more money that way). Then you can leave Against Medical Advice any time you want, but the hospital will usually let you go ASAP anyway because again, money. Then it's just a matter of the bullshit "I understand that because I was involuntary hospitalized I'm no longer allowed to possess firearms blahblahblah" autographs and you're back to standing outside your ex's driveway in no time.

see:
>The trick to getting out fast is to have good insurance and sign the paperwork switching you from an involuntary to a voluntary hospitalization ASAP (the hospital will make more money that way)

>sign the paperwork switching you from an involuntary to a voluntary hospitalization

If you're still there on an involuntary 72 hour hold or extension then you obviously haven't been converted over to a voluntary stay.

If you've got decent insurance and you're at least putting up a pretense of sanity they ask you if you'd be willing to commit yourself voluntarily because your insurance is going to pay more than the government.

Once you're committed voluntarily you can leave against medical advice and, because of quotas, if you verbalize your intent to leave AMA and you're not not some kind of shit flinger or complete drama queen (in which case they wouldn't have let you to sign the voluntary admission papers in the first place) who gives them reason to think you're a legal liablity they're going to expedite your discharge because they don't want DAMAs.

We weren't unatended. We were escorted. By leave the ward I don't mean leave the hospital. I mean you get to go to the caffeteria, art room, gym, and to the caged in "outside" area. If you're a risk to yourself you're not allowed anywhere other than your room, or the activity room.

Its a prison sentence without habeus corpus if involuntary and thus, theoretically, should be strictly temporary under rule of law. In reality, its just expensive to keep people inpatient for any long period of time and most modern psych hospitals have an acute ward with a length of stay avg of 3-5 days. Even that is insanely expensive, so there tend to be very few beds available.

Government pays for it because they have a guilt thing like a lot of people, not me. If you want to be a fucking freak job, fine, do it in a nice padded room somewhere. I'm not bothering you, but some of you are really freak jobs and I don't want you around my family.

I'm not saying that it's right or wrong but when someone is behaving really strangly compared to people that aren't attacking others and such, maybe a few day lockdown isn't too bad.

I bet you'd agree if some freak in NYC was throwing bricks at your daughters head or any random person's head. If you think that doesn't happen in NYC or any place, then you're a obama moron, clearly stupified.

Dear OP,

There are many people that can relate to how you're feeling and what's happening in your life. I know I can.
But the best advice I've received yet is:
1. The only validation you will ever need is your own. You don't need to make anyone else proud and happy except yourself.
2. Everyone is lost and scared in their life at one point or another. Sometimes we don't know if were on the right path, and we want to give up and lay down - take the easy road because this damn life is just so tiring and useless. But you have to find your purpose. And that leads into 3.
3. Find a purpose or goal. Don't live for someone else, you shouldn't ever feel guilted into being alive by a friend or family member, or animal. Your purpose or goal should be involved with something that makes you the happiest.
Sometimes things are grey and disappointing constantly - they're useless in a pointless world. But those silly things you happily (and like a secret pleasure) daydream, think, and wonder about aren't so silly - they're what make you who you are.

Most Sincerely,
Anon

I've been to three different hospitals. The best food was at Banner Behavioral I could order a freshly grilled burger and onion rings for lunch and dinner.You could only do that once per meal. They served a variety of food like one night we had hot wings. Breakfast was always good oatmeal and a donut. I put on 15 pounds in a 20 day stay.

Valley Hospital was alright they had a decent meals.

The worst was St Luke's they don't have a cafeteria you eat in the community room. It's dry or mush. I could not stay long.there the food depressed me so I was only there for six days. Did meet a cute girl there we ate together.
