Sometimes a good hospital is just what suicidal patients need to stabilize. I don't think patients in a hospital setting get much from the actual therapy, but they do get a sense of safety. I recently went to a fairly decent hospital that allowed me to sleep when I wanted and participate in group when I wanted. To me that was great. There was absolutely no pressure. I know this sounds silly, but the hospital was very homey. The hospital was also smaller and had an outside area where you could smoke and chat with other patients. To sum it all up, not all pscyh hospitals are like the ones you see in movies.
Where do you live? What is the biggest city nearby.
