My phone sucks and won't let me press the tw button so
TW mentions self harm
Well I went to the hospital and despite saying I want to be admitted they admitted me as involuntary and put me in the high security area. Apparently they have to when a patient presents with bad sh and has to go between the mental health hospital and main hospital. Can't be that bad dr say won't even scar

It's good to hear an update, though it sounds like your stay there has started off on a bit of a sour note @Twilightsomniac I'm sorry to hear that.
How are you feeling since staying there for the night and having a little time to process this?

@Ru-bee right now I feel like being an involuntary patient sucks. I can't even go to the vending machines outside 😭
